Sal Romano gets the start for the Reds this evening. He has started 18 games this season and is 5-8 with a 5.40 ERA and a 1.47 WHIP. Romano has logged 95.0 innings this season and has 73 strikeouts with 38 walks.

Trevor Bauer gets the start for the Indians this evening. He is making his 19^th start of the season and is 8-6 on the year with a 2.45 ERA and a 1.09 WHIP. Bauer has pitched 121.1 innings and has 156 strikeouts with 37 walks.

MLB Betting Trends

Cincinnati

The Reds have won eight of their last nine against AL Central opponents and eight of their last nine interleague games.

Cleveland

The Indians have won six of Bauer’s last seven home starts and they have won 47 of their last 67 home games.

Prediction:

The Indians are going hot-and-cold at the plate, but I think even if they are cold tonight, Bauer should be able to lead them to a victory. Romano hasn’t been very strong for the Reds and I don’t think Cincinnati is going to give him a lot of run support this evening. This could be a low-scoring game if Cleveland stays cold at the plate, but I still think the Tribe will win.

 

The Pick: Cleveland Indians -230
