AAA's BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT (LAY IT & CASH IT!)
(MLB) Seattle vs. Cleveland,
Money Line: -192.00 Cleveland (Home)
Result: Loss
This is a 5* BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT on the Cleveland Indians.

Some times a favorite is a favorite for a reason and in this case, I think that Corey Kluber and the Indians should be even bigger ones. Kluber (3-6, 3.61 ERA) won four straight starts before throwing a nine-hitter in a 4-2 defeat in Kansas City on Wednesday. Kluber has to be liking his chances in bouncing back here, he'd give up three runs over seven frames and strike out 13 in a 5-3 win at Seattle on May 28th, improving to a sparkling 2-0 with a tiny 1.69 ERA in two career match-ups vs. the M's (and note that Kluber has racked up 59 K's and three walks in 40 innings of work over his last five games). And that's bad news for a Mariners team that's been outscored 32-16 while losing eight of nine. The visitors hand the ball to Roenis Elias (2-3, 2.94 ERA) who took a 2-1 loss to Tampa Bay on Thursday, allowing two runs over eight innings. Note though that Elias has always had his hands full with the Tribe, going 0-2 with a ballooned 7.15 ERA in two career match-ups vs. them. This is the biggest pitching mismatch on the board, lay the price with confidence on the INDIANS.
