Game: Detroit Tigers @ Cleveland Indians
Time: Tuesday 05/20 7:05 PM Eastern
Pick: Cleveland +130 (moneyline) at Bovada
The Tigers are playing well, and always show as an overvalued team when Justin Verlander takes the mound on the road. Verlander has compiled a 90-45 mark as a home favorite and plus money, but he has been negative money on the road as a favorite, and the Tigers have won just 5 of his last 14 starts in the role of a road chalk. Verlander owns a 4.26 ERA against the Tribe - his highest mark vs. any AL team, and is just 9-10 here with an ERA of 5.26. Cleveland will go with rookie phenom Trevor Bauer who has a 1.50 ERA in his lone start. The Tigers are a woeful 3-9 in Verlander's last 12 starts vs. a losing team, while the Tribe owns a 21-10 mark vs. a pitcher with a WHIP greater than 1.30. Go with Cleveland.
Tuesday's MLB betting cheat sheet: Giants favored in Bumgarner-Morales rematch
Here's a comprehensive look at betting notes for Tuesday's major league games:
Day of the 'Dogs
Monday's five-game schedule saw the three biggest underdogs of the day prevail. The Chicago White Sox (+176) rallied from a 5-0 deficit to stun host Kansas City 7-6 while Houston (+176) cruised pas the Los Angeles Angels 5-2 and Cincinnati (+166) shaded Washington 4-3.
Making a Pitch
The Toronto Blue Jays have struggled on the mound for most of the season - its 4.38 ERA is the highest among teams with a positive run differential - but they've allowed just 10 runs over their past four games. They open a three-game series Tuesday against a Boston team that is 15-26-2 O/U for the season.
Rocky Rematch
The Colorado Rockies (+115, 10) face San Francisco on Tuesday as home underdogs for just the second time all season. They prevailed 2-1 as +109 underdogs on April 22, with Franklin Morales outdueling Giants ace Madison Bumgarner; those same two pitchers will go at it Tuesday night.
Pitching stats
* Atlanta Braves right-hander Julio Teheran had a string of five consecutive Under outings snapped last time out, allowing five runs over 3 1/3 innings of a 10-4 loss in San Francisco. Atlanta (-138, 6.5) hosts Milwaukee, which is 2-4-1 O/U over its last seven games.
* Cincinnati Reds ace Johnny Cueto has savored the underdog role of late - going 13-5-2 in his previous 20 starts - but has dropped his only two outings as an underdog this season. Cueto and the Reds (-102, 6.5) visit Doug Fister and the Washington Nationals on Tuesday.
Hitting stats
* Miami Marlins outfielder Giancarlo Stanton is hitting .426 over his previous 16 games, during which the Marlins have gone 8-8 against the moneyline and a whopping 10-5-1 O/U. Stanton and the Marlins (-102, 7.5) host the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday.
* Detroit Tigers designated hitter Victor Martinez has 11 home runs and just nine strikeouts on the season; only two players in the last 50 years have finished a full campaign with more dingers than Ks. Martinez and the Tigers (-131) visit the Cleveland Indians on Tuesday.
Totals Streak
Chicago White Sox (4-0 O/U): The absence of rookie slugger Jose Abreu (ankle) hasn't slowed the White Sox, who are 2-0 O/U in his absence and pounded out 11 hits in Tuesday's win over the Royals. Chicago leads the majors with 28 Overs so far this season.
Prop of the Day
Oddsmakers have made the Rockies a +175 longshot to record the highest-scoring inning in their tilt with the Giants. Despite facing one of the league's toughest pitchers in Bumgarner, Colorado is hitting a major league-best .352 with 37 home runs in 21 games at Coors Field.
Injury Notes
* Rockies outfielder Michael Cuddyer (hamstring) will be activated Tuesday and is expected to be in the lineup. Colorado thrived despite missing Cuddyer for more than a month, going 17-11 against the moneyline and 16-10-2 O/U while racking up 605 units in his absence.
* Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez (thumb) will be out for the next few games. Perez has multi-hit efforts in four of his previous 10 games; the Royals are 4-0 against the moneyline and 2-1-1 O/U in those contests.
Weather Watch
* Wind is expected to blow out to center at Wrigley Field for Tuesday's game between the host Cubs (+151, 7.5) and the New York Yankees. Teams combined to average better than 13 runs and 4.5 homers per game in seven contests under similar conditions last season.
Umpire Note of the Day
Over is 6-1 in umpire Sean Barber's last seven games calling the balls and strikes. Barber will be behind home plate for Tuesday's game between the White Sox and Royals.
