Latest Odds : CLE -130 Total 8
The Tigers have been playing decent on the season so far and actually find themselves only a half game out of first place heading into play on Wednesday. What is actually surprising is the fact the Tigers are 3 games over the five hundred mark on the season and that will definitely help the Tigers out in the long run and in gaining confidence as the season goes on longer. With the offense the Tigers have come to rely on Christian Stewart who has managed to get a total of 10 RBIs, 2 homers, but is horrible at hitting with a .167 average.
Shane Bieber is the pitcher the Tigers will hand the ball over to in this game here. Bieber has done decent in his games so far. He has thrown in 2 games and 1 of them was a start. Bieber has thrown a total of 8 innings while striking out 11 batters with only 2 walks. Bieber does not have a decision on the year with a 3.38 ERA.

The Indians are coming in sitting in first place, which is a little bit on the surprising side for the team with how weak the offense has been on the year. However, something else the Indians are trying to do is keep the offense balanced compared to relying on a single player. Carlos Santana has been the run producer for the Indians with 8 RBIs, 1 homers, and a .371 average. The Indians have relied on Hanley Ramirez to hit 2 homers on the year, but he hits at a clip of .208.
Spencer Turnbull is the pitcher going to the mound for the Tigers. He has started in 2 games with 11 innings under his belt with 15 strikeouts and 4 walks. Turnbull has posted an 0-1 record, but has a 4.09 ERA.

Free Betting Pick: Cleveland Indians -130
The Indians are not relying on most of their offense to come from a single player in this game. However, the Indians are also playing better ball all around and have managed to really play the small ball game better than the Tigers as the Indians do not have much in the way of a power offense. Final Score, Cleveland Indians win 6-2.
