The Cleveland Indians are playing very well right now, and should not be an underdog to the Oakland A’s at home. Cleveland just capped off their 5th straight victory after sweeping the Blue Jays with a 6-1 victory Thursday. Now, the Indians send one of their best starters to the mound in Mitch Talbot, who is 8-6 with a 3.88 ERA this season. The Indians have gone 9-6 in his 15 starts. In fact, the Indians are 9-4 in Talbot’s 13 starts as an underdog of +100 or higher.

A’s starter Gio Gonzalez has been two different starters home and away. At home, he has been dominant, but on the road it’s another story. Gonzalez is 2-3 with a 5.44 ERA and 1.674 WHIP in 8 road starts this season. He also hasn’t fared well at night, going 2-5 with a 5.11 ERA and 1.557 WHIP in 11 night starts this year. Oakland is 15-25 on the road this season, scoring a miniscule 3.9 RPG. The Indians are 7-1 in their last 8 home games after allowing 2 runs or less in their previous game. Finally, Cleveland has won 6 of their last 7 home meetings with Oakland. Roll with the Indians Friday.
