    KC TT over 4 (+100)

    Why not? Porcello hasn't proven he can get anyone out much recently, he has an ERA of 6 at home this year, and he's given up 10 ER on 21 hits vs. KC at home in his last two starts.

    I wouldn't lay -150 on the Tigers if you held a gun to my head. Royals might win this game. Only reason I wouldn't take them is their bullpen's penchant for collapse lately.

    Like this pick...especially at +EV money. Porcello is bad, plain and simple...and the Tigers bullpen is horrendous too. Royals should break this easily.

    I think you at least get a push, and it'll be around -105 or -110 before first pitch.

    * Phil Coke has not allowed a run in his last 13 outings, striking out 20 and holding opponents to a .182 batting average in 12 scoreless innings.

    * Benoit has recorded ERA's of 2.61 in June, 1.17 in July, and 1.80 in August

    * Below has been solid with a 2.93 ERA as a reliever

    * Ryan Perry hasn't given up a run since the All Star break after returning recently, posting 7 clean innings.

    * Schlereth is finally figuring it out after returning from the minors, with a 2.63 ERA in August.

    * Valverde is going for his 40th straight save!!!!

    Bullpen suck?

    This isn't a horrible pick, but definitely not for this reason. Personally I think Porcello will end up with a good game today. He's due.

    "He's due"?

    As for Detroit's bullpen, yes, it's been better lately. Still sub-par, though. Valverde has saved it from being in the bottom half of the league overall, to put it mildly.

    Like I said, I'd like to take the Royals SU -- just don't trust them in the late innings. Maybe a FF play.

    Velverde has given up 45 hits, 5 HR, and 31 walks in 58 IP. He is having a lucky, abielt fantastic year. Closers who put runners on and pitch to contact are gascan waiting to explode. Coke is okay, and Benoit is good. Ryan Perry is trash, garbage, whatever...he is horrible. Idc what he has done in his last 7 IP. Porcello has an ERA of 6.00 at home. He may pitch well today, but betting on the "he's due" theory is a great way to go broke.

    On top of everything else I said, The Tigers bullpen ranks 25th in ERA, 23rd in BA, 26th in BBs, 19th in Ks, 29th in .OBP, 19th in .SLG, 23rd in .OPS, 29th in WHIP, and 28th in K/BB ratio.

    The bullpen is bad. Plain and simple.

    Honestly -- and I'm a Tiger fan -- this team has no business being in any kind of "pennant chase." Fortunately, the AL Central is one of the worst divisions to come down the pike in a long time.

    And it typically comes vs. -- you guessed it -- the Royals.

    I'm not betting on the game, and as I said taking KC because of Porcello could work out.

    I noted Perry's 7 innings because that's since he's returned from the minors. He's actually looked pretty good.

    I can see why NC chose this play. I just can't see pinning it on the Tigers bullpen right now.

    Back up. Can anyone post the new pitcher odds they have for me? Mine are Det -200 and KC +170. Thinking about pounding Det ML, but am not sure if I should wait or grab it now?

    lol oh god, the pitching change scares me.

    The Tigers make a habit of letting spot starters own them for some reason...

    I see you're on the CHW/MIN under LB. Public is also, and it's being juiced heavily, but no signs of 8.5 yet. Does that worry you at all?
