Gambling911.com has your Royals vs. Indians series betting picks and DFS plays for April 27.

Best Bets – Cleveland -142 (Sportsbook.ag)

Best PicksMike Moustakas, Jason Kipnis, Carlos Santana, Corey Klubber ($10K – starter)

Pitching Matchup: Royals LH Jason Vargas (1-1, 6.75 ERA) vs. Indians RH Corey Kluber (0-2, 3.90)

Betting Line – Indians -142, Royals +136, Total 6.5

Cleveland has won five of the last seven in this series.  The away team has won five of the last six.  Two of the last three games of this series played in Cleveland have gone OVER 7. 

Indians starting pitcher Corey Kluber has not won in four starts though he only permitted 2 runs in each of his three.  He allowed 6 in his last start.  That may have been the result of poor weather conditions however. 

Vargas has struggled against Cleveland with a 3-3 with a 5.19 ERA in nine starts.

The Royals Mike Moustakas went 8-for-21 against Kluber with a homerun. He also had two RBIs.  He is the only KC batter who has enjoyed significant success against Kluber. 

Jason Kipnis has gone 4-for-12 against Jason Vargas with 4 RBIs.

Carlos Santana has gone 5-for-16 against Vargas.

The total on this game has dropped from 7 to 6.5 across the board.  We like Cleveland at -142 with Kluber desperate for his first win versus a team he has played especially well against in the past.
