Cleveland / Detroit UNDER 8.5

Primary reason:
Winds blowing in from the NE at 20MPH, gusting to 30MPH.

Simply put, winds blowing in from the center field fence from 20 to 30 miles per hour straight towards home plate at Progressive.

I don't care how strong Miggy, V-Mart, or Santana are, unless the ball is shot out from a cannon, no balls are going over any outfield fence in this game.

It's going to take 14 singles to push this game to nine plus runs.

Carmosa takes the ball for the Tribe, he'll give up a homer from time to time, I get that, but not under these conditions, plus, if you guys have read me over the years, I'm big on the 'shot their load' theory, and the Tigers (who I see big things from this October) will need two or three days to reload their offense, after that fireworks display they put on against Chicago.

I think the weather in Cleveland will keep this game total very low.

agreed on this total bill, the wind is playing a very big role in this one. plus i dont think we should expect a offensive blowout by the tribe as well, the way the have been playing offensively is nothing special, except for that game against KC. gl on the action!
