Oakland is really struggling, losing eight of their last nine games. In their last four losses, they have scored just a combined 6 runs. Cleveland has won four of five, but it hasn’t picked up a lot of runs in their own right, being held to 5 runs or less in their last five. The team is hoping Salazar can bounce out of his recent funk. He has been unable to get past two innings in the last two starts. Oakland has Manaea on the mound, but he is pushing an ERA close to 5.00. He likely won’t be able to shut down Cleveland’s hitters.
