Entering Monday's series opener, the Indians O/U is 2-1 and the Angels O/U is 3-1 on the season. Each of Cleveland's last 2 games had gone over the total and all 3 of LA's games versus right-handed starters had gone over the total. The Angels face another right-hander,Corey Kluber, Wednesday and they counter with Tyler Skaggs. Los Angeles left-hander Skaggs has been absolutely crushed by the Indians in his last two starts against them as he has given up 9 earned runs on 18 hits in 10.1 innings. The Indians Kluber is, of course, fully capable of spinning gems like he did in the season opener but he is facing an Angels lineup that has a number of hitters with experience against him. Some veteran guys in this Angels lineup with plenty of pop that could get to Kluber. He did allow 14 homers in his 13 road starts last season and this is a day game start where the ball carries a little better in Anaheim. Projected box-score shows Angels and Indians combining for 6.19 extra base hits! Combination of hits (including extra base hits) equating to 9.30 runs per MIT Simulator. Play: OVER
