WILL ROGERS' 3-GAME SWEEPER PASS
(MLB) Cleveland vs. Detroit,
Money Line: -154.00 Cleveland (Away)
Result: Win
Money Line: -154.00 Cleveland (Away)
Result: Win
The set-up: The Indians' Corey Kluber has uncharacteristically struggled to open the season, but I think he'll bounce back here in this favorable situation. Tigers' veteran Jordan Zimmermann has looked sharp early, but I think he'll have difficulty with this surging Indians side.
The pitchers: Kluber (0-2, 5.23 ERA) will be trying to slow down a Tigers team which has won fig straight. Kluber has to be feeling confident here as he's 11-7 with a 3.55 ERA in 25 career appearances vs. Detroit. Last year he won all three starts, allowing only three runs over 23 1/3's innings to go along with 26 K's.
Zimmermann (0-0, 0.66) has allowed only one run over 13 2/3's innings of work, but the Tigers have given him no support thus far.
The pick: Note though that Zimmermann has been destroyed by the Tribe throughout his career, going 0-5 with a ballooned 11.08 ERA. I think Kluber settles down and I look for Zimmermann to come back down to Earth. Lay the price.
