The Indians are just so tough to beat with their great pitching but Carrasco looks like the weak link.
Duffy is probably the best the Royals have to offer so maybe this one more of a game on paper.
Kansas City Royals
The Royals are the second lowest scoring team in the Majors and not having Jorge Soler in the lineup makes them even less imposing. Sal Perez is out as well.
Whit Merrifield is hitting for more power this season but you have to wonder if he is trying too hard – he is hitting just .249 which would be a career-low by far.
Danny Duffy can baffle lineup but he seems to always have that one bad inning that is the difference between winning and losing. He was solid against the Indians in their opener, 2ER in 4IP.
Cleveland Indians
Cleveland has the top pitching in baseball so when they score some runs they are tough to beat. They have scored at least 4 in three straight – winning all of them (into Tuesday). I know that doesn’t sound like a lot but it is for them.
Francisco Lindor is getting better as the season progresses. He is hitting .287 now, second on the team. I think he might have been pressing early on with all the free agent/trade talk.
Carlos Carrasco is still very good and can dominate at times, like in his last two starts, just 1ER combined. He is not as consistent as he once was and sometimes losing his edge during games. The bullpen is really strong in support though so he is still a good play.

Carrasco is getting stronger which is a dangerous sign for the rest of the league, because he might actually be the weak link in the rotation.
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: Indians Run Line
Even if Cleveland does not get another masterful performance I think they can get to Duffy enough to get the run line here. The Royals lineup is very light right now
