With an ability to hold their own against poor pitching - Verlander doesn't fall into a huge concern for the Indians. Verlander has been getting shelled lately - this wont be different. Their skilled eyes has have allowed the Indians to take their opportunity when it presents itself. Cleveland has to win this game, in a huge game - for the Indians, who are trying to keep a grip on their division - I trust Cleveland over Detroit here.



Verlander had just another typical performance for the struggling Tigers, allowing the lineups of Kansas City and Cleveland to 18 hits and 10 earned runs over 10.1 innings. Cleveland is going to tear them apart from the plate, with their good base running and smart hitters here at home.




Cleveland wins this one on Saturday night.
