MLB Betting Lines – Free Pick: Chris Young 0.69 ERA vs. Cleveland

We have been getting slaughtered over the past two days including a 1-3 bomb yesterday.  Let’s try to get back on track today.

Our free pick appears below today’s hot pitching and team trends.

Pitching:

Philadelphia's Cliff Lee is 6-4 when starting against Washington with an ERA of 2.74 and a WHIP of 1.102.

Washington's Gio Gonzalez is 5-3 when starting against Philadelphia with an ERA of 2.48 and a WHIP of 1.103.

Atlanta’s Julio Teheran is 0-1 when starting against the LA Dodgers with an ERA of 20.22 and a WHIP of 3.371.

The Dodgers Clayton Kershaw is 1-0 when starting against Atlanta with an ERA of 1.91 and a WHIP of 0.945.

The White Sox John Danks is 6-10 when starting against Detroit with an ERA of 5.03 and a WHIP of 1.496.

Baltimore's Bud Norris is 4-0 when starting against the Angelswith an ERA of 0.52 and a WHIP of 1.067.

Seattle's Chris Young is 2-0 when starting against CLEVELAND with an ERA of 0.69 and a WHIP of 0.615.

Minnesota's Kevin Correia is 0-5 when starting against Kansas City with an ERA of 4.91 and a WHIP of 1.617.

Kansas City's Yordano Ventura is 0-1 when starting against Minnesota with an ERA of 9.00 and a WHIP of 2.500.

Team:

The OVER is 7-4 in the White Sox/Lions series this season.

Baltimore is 4-1 vs. the LA Angels this season.

The UNDER is 4-1 in the Orioles/Angels series this year.

Pick:

Today we will be on the UNDER 8.5 Mariners/Indians.

The Mariners are just 1-7 when playing in Cleveland, otherwise we would probably be all over Mariners RH Chris Young (9-6, 3.04 ERA).  He is 2-0 with a 0.69 ERA in two career starts against Cleveland, including a victory on June 27 in which he gave up one run over five frames.

The Indians RH Zach McAllister (3-6, 5.65) is struggling in recent starts, losing six straight.  McAllister is 0-2 with a 5.60 ERA in five career starts against Seattle.  The oddsmakers have made him the -131 favorite so they seem confident he will do fine in this game.  Otherwise, we see Cleveland taking him out fast.  Seattle has only scored 4 or more runs in 2 of their last 8 overall and that might work in McAllister’s favor.

All five of this year’s games in this series have stayed UNDER the current number of 8.5.

The UNDER is 5-0-1 in McAllister's last 6 starts as a home favorite.
