Monday, 6:05 pm Eastern

SBG Global Opening Line: Indians - 110 , Total 9.5 Flat





David Price will make his season debut for the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday as he gets the start in Cleveland. Price was great last year in the AL Championship Series against Boston but upper management still believed he needed to start this season in Triple A. "He's a unique young man, and he thrives under this kind of situation," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "I know he definitely feels like he belongs here, and those are the kind of things you want."

SBG Global reports that early MLB Betting has the public taking Rays on the Road.

Tampa Bay has had all kinds of trouble in Cleveland recently, losing their last 13 games there. That streak should end though as Tampa has the better team as they proved earlier this year when they took three of four from the Indians in Tampa Bay.

Fausto Carmona gets the start for the Indians on Monday. Carmona is 2-4 with a 5.74 ERA this season. He is 2-1 with a 5.51 ERA in his career against Tampa Bay.

The Indians come off a 4-6 road trip so they should be happy to get home.
"The bullpen's done a good job lately," Cleveland manager Eric Wedge said. "The difference in this game (Sunday’s loss) was not getting the big hit."

Here are the MLB Betting stats for Monday’s game. The Rays are 4-0 in their last 4 games vs. a right-handed starter. The Rays are 2-6 in their last 8 games as a road favorite. The Rays are 11-28 in the last 39 meetings in Cleveland.

The Indians are 2-5 in their last 7 home games. The Indians are 1-4 in their last 5 vs. the American League East. The Indians are 13-6 in Carmona’s last 19 starts vs. the American League East.

The Over is 4-0 in the Rays last 4 overall. The Over is 4-1 in the Rays last 5 vs. the American League Central.

SBG Global Current Line: Indians - 110 , Total 9.5 Over - 120
