Cleveland @ Seattle picks

George Kirby has been far better in June, allowing two runs in each of his last two outings. He was especially impressive last weekend against the Los Angeles Angels, when he struck out 14 batters over seven innings, allowing just two runs on two hits. Tonight, Kirby will face off against a soft-hitting Cleveland Guardians lineup that is averaging just 3.93 runs per game. Taking the Under on 1.5 earned runs allowed is aggressive, but if Kirby throws like he has over his last two starts, then I’m happy to take that bet with solid plus money available.
