Earliest Cash - Rickenbach MLB Game #961 Monday 8* Cleveland Indians Run Line -1.5 runs -115 @ Baltimore Orioles @ 7:05 ET - The Indians opened up as a -230 favorite on the money line and the Orioles have attracted quite a bit of attention. Why? Because Kevin Gausman is coming off of a quality start. However, just how "quality" was it. Yes he went 6 innings and allowed 3 earned runs or less so it earns the definition in that regard. However, Gausman allowed 9 hits including 2 homers in just 6 innings so he was fortunate the 2 bombs were solo shots! Now he faces an Indians team that gave him so trouble in his lone start against them last season. Also, the Tribe come into this game having averaged 11.3 hits per game in their last 8 games. Keep in mind the Orioles have been held to 7 hits or less in 6 of their last 7 games. Also, Baltimore has been held to 3 runs or less in 7 of its last 9 games. The Indians will have Carlos Carrasco on the mound and he is 3-0 on the season and also 2-0 in his last 3 starts while compiling a superb 1.23 ERA in those outings. Carrasco shut out the Orioles over 6 innings last season while piling up 10 strikeouts. More of the same here. Of course I am not going to lay a huge price on the money line but that is why I see so much value with the run line available at a low price here. 13 of the Orioles 16 losses this season have come by 2 or more runs. 7 of the Indians last 8 wins have come by 2 or more runs. 8* CLEVELAND
