Trevor Bauer is a top tier hurler but he has struggled for most of this season, and despite of a decent effort last time out, he still threw 119 pitches, which will effect his freshness here today against what can sometimes be a under rated  Motown offence.Bauer had an 0-5 record and 5.52 ERA during a seven-start stretch.Bauers strikeout rate is down and his walk rate is up and he is being over rated on this moneyline. Detroit beat Bauer on April 10 this season, handing him a loss while collecting four runs and 10 hits in 5 2/3 innings. Meanwhile,Spencer Turnbull has been very effective for the Tigers this season, and is off throwing six scoreless innings on Tuesday in Kansas City, and received a no-decision.

CLEVELAND is 3-19  against the money line vs. an AL starting pitcher whose ERA is 2.90 or better over the last 2 seasons

"Ryu the Dodgers starter would have been the first MLB pitcher to 10 wins if the bullpen did blow it  for him up in Anaheim Monday night. He wasn’t happy with his change-up that night and allowed a homer to Kole Calhoun, but he still isn’t walking anybody and looks the most consistent that he has in his career and deserves our respect and backing here tonight on a value based run line. Meanwhile, the The Cubs will fire back in the series finale with their own left-hander  Jose Quintana (4-6, 3.89). the southpaw gave up four runs in just 4 2/3 innings in a  loss at Colorado on Tuesday, and is 0-3 over his last four starts with a 5.48 ERA and fade material in his current form. The playoffs  Quintana started against Los Angeles twice in the 2018 NLCS, posting a 10.29 ERA as Chicago lost both games.
