Detroit Tigers vs. New York Yankees (MLB Network 7:05 EST)
Selection: New York Yankees -1.5 Runs
Reason: Though the Tigers have won three straight to put the breaks on their recent skid, they are still just 10-22 in their last 32 games. Verlander has had mixed success vs. the Yankees, but much like the Tigers, who are 20-36 away, he has struggled on the road, with a 4.72 ERA. Sabathia has been immaculate at home for over a year, posting a record of 13-0, with a 2.25 ERA in his last 18 regular season home starts. When the Yankees win at home, they win big, as 34 of their 37 home wins have come by 2 more runs. Lay the runs with the New York Yankees tonight.
