You can bet the Indians-Yankees series this weekend online with Game One featuring odds of Cleveland +101, New York -111 and a total of 8.5.
The Yankees have won three of the last four games in this series. Cleveland is 15-36 in the last 51 meetings in New York. The Yankees are 7-2 in their last 9 home games.
Cleveland has gone 12-2 in Josh Tomlin’s last 14 road starts and 23-5 in Tomlin’s last 28 starts overall. He has allowed 7 runs in his last 20 innings pitched.
Michael Pineda (5-10) gave up five runs on six hits and four walks over six innings in Sunday's loss to the Rays, striking out eight. (Sun Jul 31).
He’s been especially inconsistent over his last five starts, allowing five runs in three of those and just one run and zero runs in the other two.
The Yankees are 6-1 in Pineda’s last 7 starts with 4 days of rest.
The Indians are 0-5 in their last 5 vs. American League East.
It is hard to resist jumping on the Indians bandwagon Sunday as Carlos Carrasco, coming off a bad loss, will face a Yankees team he has allowed a mere 17 hits off of 88 at bats with one home run while New York's Masahiro Tanaka has permitted an astonishing 28 hits off of 67 at bats with four homers.
Take Cleveland no matter the price Sunday August 7.
