I am leaning on the tigers -1.5 runs. Tigers bats have awakened and helps to have Polanco and Granderson back in the lineup. Rangers may have the worst pitching staff in baseball. Rangers starters, like Millwood and Gabbard, are capable of quality starts. Even if they do that, the bullpen is horrendous and cannot hold leads. Its worst when ranger starters get knocked out early in games. The ranger bullpen is battered and bruised. The rangers will have Scott Feldman pitching against Bonderman. Only thing that can help the rangers is a scheduled day off so that the bullpen can get some rest. I think the tigers score 10+ runs again today.

There is no line on this game as I checked with the greek and betus. THe line is going to be tigers -200 on the ML and -110
on the runline. I also like taking the tigers -1/2 run in 5 innings. Tigers will score 1st in this game. What does everyone think of this game.

[twitchy]

thats a very good choice might i add takin DETROIT TEAM OVER as well :-D

I like that pick too as the tigers can get the over in perhaps in one inning.
