Game: Boston at Cleveland (1:05 PM Eastern)
Pick: Boston -155 (moneyline)
Cleveland has fallen apart since the All Star break and it's not surprising, with a bottom five team ERA and an offense ranked 17th in runs and 21st in slugging. The Indians are on an 8-20 run and 3-12 in their last 15 vs. a team with a losing record. Corey Kluber (6.10 ERA) goes and has below average stuff allowing 19 base runners in ten innings. The Indians are 10-21 in their last 31 home games against a left-handed starter and face southpaw Jon Lester. Lester has been up and down, but is still a strong strikeout pitcher and is 4-1 in his career against Cleveland with a 3.53 ERA. Boston has an above average bullpen and an offense ranked second in runs scored, 12th in OBP and fourth in slugging. And the Red Sox are 7-3 in Lester's last ten starts vs. Indians. Play the Red Sox.
