Sunday MLB Free Pick
(The Spread) – Many people probably thought the Cleveland Indians would not have a six-game winning streak all season, but here they are riding that win streak and going for a seventh straight today against the offensively challenged Seattle Mariners.
Oddsmakers from online sports book SBGGLOBAL.com have made the Seattle Mariners -125 favorites while the Cleveland Indians are +115 underdogs. The over-under is set at 7. First pitch is set for 4:10PM EST.
On Saturday night, Cleveland held on for a 2-1 victory over Seattle as Chris Perez closed it out for his fourth save of the young season. That win came a day after the Indians embarrassed the Mariners 12-3 in the opener of the series.
Josh Tomlin (1-0, 1.29 ERA) will start for the Indians, while left-handed Erik Bedard (0-1, 5.40 ERA) takes the hill for the Mariners. Tomlin won his only career start against Seattle, allowing three earned runs on seven hits over six innings. Bedard is 2-1 in his nine career starts versus Cleveland, posting a 3.70 ERA.
MLB Free Pick: Bedard is going to have to prove to me that he is the same pitcher he was three or four years ago. He did not show that in his first start, although it was against a strong Texas Rangers lineup. Cleveland is playing with a high confidence level right now and Tomlin should be able to limit the offensive output Seattle is able to put forth. This is a good price on the Indians and I think they have a pretty good chance to pull off the road sweep here. I am playing the Cleveland Indians +115.
