Today’s matchup is between the Cleveland Indians (28-23) and the Detroit Tigers (21-29).
The Indians are starting Carlos Carrasco (RHP), who is 2-4 on the season pitching a 3.27 ERA, 3.81 FIP, .310 wOBA, K% of 27.2%, BB% of 9.1%, 88.7 MPH average exit velocity, and a 1.23 WHIP in 39 innings pitched.
The Tigers are starting Matthew Boyd (LHP), who is 2-6 on the season with a 6.75 ERA, 5.83 FIP, .384 wOBA, K% of 24.1%, BB% of 8.5%, 88.7 MPH average exit velocity, and a 1.54 WHIP in 49.1 innings pitched.
The Indians are the 4th best in the Majors in Relieving Pitching, while the Tigers are 26th.
On the hitting side, the Indians have a .298 wOBA and a .317 OBP. The Tigers have a .300 wOBA and a .301 OBP. The Indians have 49 HRs this season while the Tigers have 57 HRs.
The Indians hitting struggles have been plagued at batting this season which has led to some unfortunate losses but I think their pitching unit can get the job done against the Tigers. Take the Indians moneyline here.
