The Cleveland Indians<\/strong> host the Toronto Blue Jays<\/strong> on Friday night in the second game of a four-game set at Progressive Field in Ohio.<\/p>\n Toronto Blue Jays<\/a> (11-12) at Cleveland Indians<\/a> (7-14)<\/strong> Click here to view…\u00a0MLB ATS Stats<\/a>\u00a0&\u00a0Expert MLB Betting Insight!<\/a><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n The Blue Jays trot out Mark Buehrle in this one. While he hasn\u2019t been great thus far, an outing against the Indians presents a perfect opportunity for him to turn things around.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=63744&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n In his lone start against Cleveland last season, Buehrle pitched a gem at Progressive Field, holding the Indians scoreless over seven innings of work, allowing only four hits in a 5-0 Blue Jays victory.<\/p>\n The Indians counter with Carlos Carrasco. He threw an absolute beauty to start the year, limiting the Astros to three hits and no runs over 6 1\/3 innings in a 2-0 victory. Since then, he\u2019s posted a 7.71 ERA, with the Indians losing two of those three starts.<\/p>\n Carrasco\u2019s outings against the Blue Jays were pretty forgettable last year. He allowed four runs on six hits and walked three in 5 2\/3 innings of work in his lone start, and gave up two runs in one inning of relief in another start. Add it all up and he\u2019s got an 8.10 ERA and 1.80 WHIP.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=10&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n The Blue Jays offer solid value in this one. While Carrasco\u2019s been as solid a pitcher as there is in the bigs at times this season, Buehrle\u2019s had more success against the Indians than Carrasco has the Blue Jays.<\/p>\n Additionally, the under is worth a look with Carrasco figuring to keep the Blue Jays in check for the most part, and Buehrle in position to give the Indians a whole lot of trouble.<\/p>\n Cleveland has been hopeless against left-handed pitchers, so Buehrle can be expected to continue his success against them.<\/p>\n The Blue Jays are 21-5 in Buehrle\u2019s last 26 starts against teams with a losing record, and they are 11-1 in his last 12 road starts against teams with a losing record.<\/p>\n The Blue Jays are 10-1 in Buehrle\u2019s last 11 starts against A.L. Central opponents, and they are 4-1 in Buehrle\u2019s last five starts in the second game of a series.<\/p>\n The Indians are 7-22 in Carrasco\u2019s last 29 home starts, and they are 0-4 in his last four starts on a Friday.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=63745&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n The under is 22-9 in Buehrle\u2019s last 31 starts as an underdog, and it is 21-10 in Buehrle\u2019s last 31 road starts.<\/p>\n The under is 11-1 in Carrasco\u2019s last 12 starts as a favorite, and it is 7-0 in Carrasco\u2019s last seven starts as a home favorite.<\/p>\n The under is 5-0 in Carrasco\u2019s last five starts in the second game of a series, and it is 8-2 in his last 10 starts on four days of rest.<\/p>\n\n
