Parker Messick o14.5 Outs (-158)

CLE @ CHW · 5:00 PM ET · Game 1 of 2

Across his three meetings with CHW this season Messick has gone 5, 7 and 6 innings, a 6.0 IP/gs average that clears this 14.5 line with room to spare, and he comes in on 11 days' rest rather than a short turnaround. CLE's bullpen is already stressed at 8.3 IP over the last two days, giving the club extra incentive to stretch him deep rather than go to the pen early. His lone short outing in the broader last-3-start sample came against Kansas City on just 64 pitches, not against this club, and his specific track record vs CHW is the more relevant window here against a line that sits below the league's 16.4-out average.
