    If you're thinking of taking Verlander and the Tigers at -150 on Wednesday

    Just remember that's a ton of juice for a guy who is 14-14 with a 4.57 career ERA vs. Cleveland (4 runs and 5 BB at home in his last start vs. the Tribe) and 0-2 in his last two starts with 11 ER allowed in 7.2 IP.

    Verlander has a blister on his throwing hand that will only get better with rest. You know how hit-and-miss Ubaldo can be -- and it's been more miss at the Jake this year -- but be careful laying that kind of juice with Detroit. Ubaldo's only allowed 5 ER in his last 23.2 IP, going 3-0 in his last four starts with 29 K's.

    Personally feel like playing Ubaldo and the Tribe at +1.5 is a great play/value at -120.

    He wouldn't have the last time he pitched vs. Detroit.

    In terms of Verlander and the blister - don't think he would have thrown an extra bullpen this week if it was still a problem.

    JV already said he's not missing any time because of it.

    Schilling said in an interview the only way to heal it is to give it two full weeks of rest without use.
