The Cleveland Indians will look to go one game above .500 this Monday, but the team on the other side of this one will not make it easy on them, as the Toronto Blue Jays will be a force back at home in Toronto.
Cleveland Indians
The Indians are going through a bit of a rough patch now winning just 4 of their last 12 games with the pitching being the main issue as they are getting lit-up routinely over the last couple of weeks.
The pitching really never was the main strength of this team, but they have been especially poor as of late and they simply can’t afford more poor performances from this pitching staff with that being especially true against a team with as much batting talent as Toronto.
The Indians will hand the ball off to Eli Morgan here and he enters this matchup with a mid 7’s ERA and a 1-3 record and is coming off of one of his best performances of the year going 5 innings against the Astros and only giving up 3 earned runs.
Toronto Blue Jays
The Toronto Blue Jays have stated their intentions clearly this trade deadline essentially pushing all of their chips into the middle to win now surrendering a bunch of top prospects to strengthen their team in an effort to win now.
That decision appears to have paid off, at least in the short term, as Jose Berrios was solid in his first game as a Blue Jay, as he helped lead this team to a 5-1 win over the Kansas City Royals last time out.
Robbie Ray will get the call to the hill here and he has no doubt been one of the best pitchers on this staff this year with a 3.04 ERA and a 9-5 record and he should come into this game with a ton of confidence after shutting down a powerful Boston Red Sox batting lineup in his last outing.

Free Cleveland Indians vs. Toronto Blue Jays MLB Prediction:
I really do expect the Blue Jays to be awesome in their games at the Rogers Center the rest of the year and we got an early glimpse of that, as this team is coming off of a sweep against the Royals and I would not be surprised if they can do just that against this Indians team over this 4 game set.
The pitching disparity is also huge here, as Robbie Ray is primed for another quality start and if he can get into the 6th inning he will put this team in a very good position to not only win, but cover the run and a half run spread on the runline.
