Indians: Trevor Bauer will get the nod tonight for his sixth start of the season for Cleveland. He comes into tonight with a 2-1 record with a 2.20 ERA. Bauer looks for his third win tonight in this contest. The Indians entered last night’s game one game behind the Twins in the AL Central race. Jose Ramirez has been on a tear lately, and had three hits, including his second homer of the year. Look for him and Francisco Lindor to give Gerrit Cole trouble.
Astros: Gerrit Cole will get take the mound tonight for his sixth start of the year for the Astros, he has struggled early on this season with a 1-3 record and a 5.22 ERA. He’ll be looking to get back on track tonight against a strong Indians team with their ace pitching. Should be a fun game to tune into.
