Blue Jays will pummel this kid.

Jays -1.5 (110)

wise

[seaborneq]

Why is he pitching? Because bloody boy is inactive. Just put on a damned glove and gut it out

[JJJ]

if he can give them 3 innings I would think Andrew Miller will go in for as long as he can pitch to try to win it

I agree. Rookie should get hammered !!!

[RollinDo]

Going with Jays ML and Under 8.5...can't buck the Under trend in this series and throughout playoffs (and much of reg. season) for Jays.

[JJJ]

everyone on jays MLB does not hand out free money especially during day games

[stackz125]

That only means he still has his hand.

[Cubbereer]

Merrit will deal hard today, you'll never see it coming

With only 1 of 3 games needed to make the World Series,
I don't think Terry Francona wants to blow out Miller's arm.
Miller is basically the top reason why Cleveland is still here.

The Indians are blowing it badly.

Miller didn't pitch yesterday so he is rested

Francona doesn't want Kluber and Tomlin used up. If they advance they will likely get Bauer back and be in good shape as far as pitching goes.

There is too much uncertainty in this game with Merritt starting, so I think I'm going to pass on this one myself. Either he gets rocked and Jays stave off elimination, or the Tribe squeaks out a W and moves on.

OR the kid might pitch a gem and Tribe win easy... I'm so surprised that all of you think that because he does not have playoff experience he will suck. How old are you?

[Pedroia15]

Any chance we see Tomlin outta the pen? Heard him talking about it during the game yesterday

[Roscoe_Word]

IMO the new guy will get roughed up, but the -180 price is reflective of that. A pass for me. GL to bettors!

[lakerboy]

Tribe probably hang around but series is going 7.

[sportsfan9698]

Truckloads of syndicate $$ now unloading on the Tribe... they are not always correct... but that is what is happening

If the dodgers advance I won't be fading this kid dodgers don't hit left handers so well and this kid looks good. Hopefully the jays can get the offense going and win this game though.

[sportsfan9698]

2-0 tribe

[teaserpleaser]

I like my CLE +160 play but the over 8.5 looks a bit shaky as of now

[lakerboy]

Let's see what's the situation end of 5.
