MLB: Wednesday's play

Play: Cleveland/Houston over 8 +105 (Carrasco vs. Feldman)

Time: 8:10 p.m. ET

Reasoning: I especially like the Indians to do their part to exceed this total since they will be facing a right-handed pitcher. Cleveland, which used five left-handed hitters on Monday, went 3-for-26 vs. southpaws Dallas Keuchel and Tony Sipp on Opening Day. The Indians' first three hitters (Michael Bourn, Jason Kipnis and Michael Brantley) went a collective 0-for-11 in Game 1, but the trio batted .293 vs. RH in 2014. As a team Cleveland ranked 18th in MLB in batting against lefties last season compared to 11th vs. righties. Here the Indians will face Scott Feldman, who went 0-3 with a 6.87 ERA in five starts in spring training. Also, the Astros bullpen led the majors last year with 25 blown saves. I also like Houston's offensive attack, especially when games are played at Minute Maid Park. On Wednesday the Astros will face Carlos Carrasco, who was sent to the bullpen last season when he posted a 6.95 ERA in his first four starts.
