Betting Trends for vs
The Cleveland Indians are playing some of their best baseball as they have won 5 consecutive games, and they are still fighting for a chance to win the AL Central which makes this game important. The Indians will be throwing one of their top pitchers in Carlos Carrasco as he is posting a 2.90 ERA, and he should have no problem dealing through a Pittsburgh team who hasn’t had much success knocking in runs. The Indians are receiving an amazing season out of Jose Ramirez as he has 17 HRs and 46 RBIs, but they will need to continue finding offense from elsewhere in their lineup. The Indians are the better team in this matchup, and I think they dominate a young Pittsburgh roster. Final Score Prediction, Cleveland Indians win 5-2.
