Result: Loss
This is a 6* play on the Cleveland Indians +1.5.
I bet on Cleveland in Game 1, because I felt Chicago shouldn't have been favored on the road against Cleveland's ace. The Cubs are an even bigger favorite in Game 2, with a perceived pitching advantage with Arrieta starting opposite Bauer. The reality is that Arrieta has been hit pretty hard over the last two months.
He was 2-3 with a 4.60 ERA in five starts in September, and he's 0-1 with a 4.91 ERA in two starts in the playoffs. His last start versus Cleveland did not go well, allowing four runs on three hits and six walks over five innings in a loss.
If Bauer falters, the Tribe can turn to their studs out of the bullpen. Andrew Miller and Cody Allen have yet to concede a run in this post-season.
Take CLE.
