The Cleveland Indians put on a clinic last night when they defeated the Chicago White Sox 13-2 to take a 2-0 lead in this series. I think Sunday's contest will be a lot closer, and I like the under here in the series finale.
Carlos Carrasco (2-2, 3.40) will take the ball for Cleveland. He has struggled in his career against the White Sox, compiling a bloated 5.76 ERA in 14 appearances - 13 starts. I like Carrasco's chances of putting up a good performance here though as the White Sox bats have been pretty harmless so far in June with a .237 batting average and an average of 3.93 runs scored per game. Chicago might have to do without Melky Cabrera who was removed from Saturday's game in the fourth inning after injuring his wrist while trying to make a diving catch in left field. That would surely make Carrasco breath a sigh of relief as Cabrera is 8-for-18 off the right-hander.
The White Sox turn to Carlos Rodon (2-6, 4.28 ERA) who has posted a 1.52 ERA in five games – four starts - against the Tribe. Rodon has held four of his last five opponents to two runs or fewer and he has compiled a 2.59 ERA in four day starts on the season.
Under is 8-2-1 in Rodon's last 11 starts vs. a team with a winning record. Under is 3-1-1 in Carrasco's last 5 home starts vs. White Sox. Under is 10-4-1 in the last 15 meetings at Progressive Field.
