MLB World Series News and Previews

Cleveland Indians vs. Minnesota Twins Preview –August 17, 2017

Tampa Bay Rays vs. Toronto Blue Jays – August 17, 2017

Chicago White Sox vs. Texas Rangers Betting Preview – August 17, 2017

Kansas City Royals vs. Boston Red Sox (7:10 PM ET)

Line: Kansas City Royals (+155) vs. Boston Red Sox (-175) – total: 9.5 – view all MLB lines

The scorching Royals will enter the game having won eight straight games, with the last one being a 16-2 laugher over the Detroit Tigers. Jason Vargas, who’s 12-4 with a 3.08 ERA in 19 starts this season, is the projected starter for tomorrow.

They are sure to be a tough task for the shaky Red Sox, who thankfully got some breather from their recent slump as they 4-0 shutout of the Seattle Mariners this past Wednesday. It was only their second win in seven games.
David Price will be Vargas’s counterpart – Price is 5-3 with a 3.82 ERA on the year.

Boston won two of its three meetings with Kansas City this season.

Writer’s Prediction

The Royals (-135) win, 5-4.

Cleveland Indians vs. Chicago White Sox (7:10 PM ET)

Line: Cleveland Indians (-215) vs. Chicago White Sox (+185) – total: 9.5 – view all MLB lines

The Indians are playing a very efficient and relaxed game right now, and considering how messy the White Sox have been all season long, we should see their seven-game winning streak get extended with ease.

Expect the Tribe’s offense, who have four players with multiple homers in the past week, to overpower Chicago’s struggling veteran starter, Derek Holland  (5-9, 5.12 ERA).

Although the Indians’ own starter, Danny Salazar (3-5, 4.79 ERA), is also having a rough year, he’s coming off a game where he struck out eight and only allowed one hit with zero runs across seven innings.

Cleveland leads the season series, 5-4.

Writer’s Prediction

The Indians (-215) roll on with a 6-3 win.
