Sunday MLB Baseball Picks: Indians vs Giants<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Fausto Carmona has struggled mightily of late, getting rocked for six-plus runs in four of his last seven starts. It\u2019s easy to see why: the sinkerballer\u2019s sinker just ain\u2019t sinkin\u2019. <\/p>\n

Cleveland Indians (40-33 through June 23)<\/strong>
\nFausto Carmona (4-9, 5.98)<\/p>\n

After allowing 17 homers in all of 2010 over 210.1 innings, Carmona has already served up 15 long balls in 96.1 innings this season. His 6.31 road ERA suggests he could be in trouble Sunday night.<\/p>\n

The San Francisco Giants\u2019 injury-ravaged offense is among the very worst in baseball but a struggling hurler like Carmona could be just what they need. Take Aubrey Huff, for example. He\u2019s batting just .245 this season after batting .290 with the Giants last year. <\/p>\n

He has two homers in 16 career at-bats against Carmona, so Sunday night could be just the matchup he needs to end his slump. [dfads params=’groups=10&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n

San Francisco Giants (41-33 through June 23)<\/strong>
\nMadison Bumgarner (3-9, 4.06)<\/p>\n

Want to know how to explode your ERA as quickly as possible? Try allowing eight earned runs in one third of an inning. That\u2019s what happened to super sophomore Madison Bumgarner earlier this week when the Minnesota Twins beat him to a pulp. The loss jumped his ERA from 3.21 to 4.06.<\/p>\n

Still, I think Bumgarner has been one of the game\u2019s unluckiest pitchers this season. Before the loss this week, he had a 3.21 ERA yet was 3-8? What? Also, note that he didn\u2019t walk a batter or allow a homer in the loss to Minnesota. The hits just happened to drop in everywhere.<\/p>\n

MLB Trends:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Under is 6-1-1 in CLE last 8 on grass.
\nUnder is 6-1-1 in CLE last 8 overall.
\nCLE are 2-6 in their last 8 road games.
\nUnder is 9-2-2 in SF last 13 interleague games.
\nUnder is 19-6-1 in SF last 26 home games.
\nUnder is 36-16-3 in SF last 55 on grass.<\/p>\n

The pick:<\/strong><\/p>\n

I think Bumgarner deserves a mulligan. Before his last outing, he had allowed three earned runs or fewer in 10 straight quality starts. He brings a bulldog mentality to the hill and should bounce back. Also, the Cleveland Indians\u2019 offense, led by Asdrubal Cabrera, is really starting to tank.<\/p>\n

I like the Giants at home.<\/p>\n
