Stephen Nover's Wrong Favorite Crusher
(MLB) Cleveland vs. Minnesota,
Money Line: 120.00 Minnesota (Home)
Result: Win
Money Line: 120.00 Minnesota (Home)
Result: Win
I'm not sold on the Indians as a road favorite in this spot. Cleveland is averaging 2.7 runs in its last four games and is minus injured catcher Yan Gomes.
Minnesota has regained some of its confidence at home winning three of its last four.
The pitching matchup is TJ House versus Trevor May. House finished last year strong, but was horrid in his first start this season giving up six runs on six hits and three walks in 1 1/3 innings against the Tigers at home.
May has tremendous motivation in trying to land a regular spot in the Twins' starting rotation. He has been a disappointment up to this point and posted bad numbers in his first start this season, giving up five runs and eight hits in 5 1/3 innings during a 12-3 home loss to the Royals this past Monday.
The Royals were hot then. The Indians aren't. May also didn't pitch as bad as his numbers show.
