This is an 8* RUN-LINE DESTRUCTION on the Detroit Tigers.
While Justin Verlander has endured some highs and lows this year, I believe he holds a significant advantage over his counterpart today and that the talent discrepancy on the mound absolutely justifies in laying the 1.5 runs for the near pick-em price. After pulling off a major trade to acquire David Price from the Rays, Verlander (9-9, 4.79 ERA) will certainly be motivated today; note that Verlander was decent in a 4-0 loss to the Angels on Saturday, giving up three runs over seven innings of work. However, if history is any precedence, then the home side is indeed loving its chances today as Verlander is a spectacular 24-2 with a very respectable 2.75 ERA in 31 career interleague starts (which includes winning all three that he's been a part of this year). He's been even better when throwing at home vs. the Senior Circuit, a perfect 14-0 with a tiny 2.14 ERA in 15 home starts vs. the NL. And that of course is bad news for a Rockies team which has lost six-straight interleague road games and 18 of its last 22 such situations overall. Colorado has in fact lost 15 of its last 17 on the road and 29 of its last 39 overall after yesterday's lacklustre 3-1 setback to the soft-hitting Cubbies. To add insult to injury, top sluggers Michael Cuddyer and Troy Tulowitzki are both injured right now. The visitors counter with Franklin Morales (5-5, 5.18 ERA) who is 1-1 with a 3.05 ERA in four starts since returning to the rotation; take note though that there is some room to read between the lines as Morales has struggled with his control by walking 14 in 20 2/3's innings of work, matching a career high with five walks in a 7-5 loss to the Pirates on Sunday. Detroit enters this series with renewed confidence after its big acquisition, I think Verlander answers the call and that the value in this game is clearly the Tigers on the RUN-LINE.
