Jake Westbrook (R) vs Freddy Garcia (R)
The Indians hope they get more respect from the White Sox Tuesday than they do from Vegas oddsmakers, who peg them as 155 pups.
The Indians start Jake Westbrook, who went 15-15 last year with an ERA of 4.49. The White Sox will send Freddy Garcia to the mound, who finished with a record of 14-8 last season and an ERA of 3.87.
Cleveland brings a 0-1 overall mark (0-1 in the division) into this game vs. a Chicago team carrying a 1-0 record.
Oddsmakers like the White Sox in this one, opening the line at 155 in favor of Chicago. They are 1-0 this season, while the Indians are 0-1. The total, which is 1-0-0 to the OVER in White Sox games and 1-0-0 in Indians games, opened at 9.
After giving up 10 runs in a loss against the White Sox, Cleveland fans expect better pitching and better defense against the White Sox. If not, this one will go into the books as a loss and likely an OVER as well.
The White Sox staff was very stingy with baserunners last year, not allowing men batters to reach base all year long. Cleveland needs to get to Garcia and into the bullpen to make things happen today.
Some trends to consider:
Cleveland is 1-6-1 OU in its last 8 games
Cleveland is 1-4-0 OU in its last 5 games against Chicago
Cleveland is 9-3-0 SU in its last 12 games after scoring 4 to 6 runs
Cleveland is 4-1-0 OU in its last 5 away
Chicago is 7-1-0 OU in its last 8 games at home against Cleveland
Chicago is 6-1-0 OU in its last 7 games
Chicago is 9-2-0 SU in its last 11 games after scoring more than 9 runs
Chicago is 1-4-0 OU in its last 5 games against Cleveland
