ROT#977 Detroit (Smyly) ML, -126 (5 units)
The Detroit Tigers offense has been slightly inconsistent this season thus far but they should be able to get back on track tonight as they travel to US Cellular Field in the first of a 2 game set versus the Chicago White Sox. Detroit will be matched up against John Danks who has struggled at home thus far this season posting a record of 2-4 with a 5.89 ERA and he has allowed at least 7 earned runs in his last 2 starts at home and at least 8 earned runs in his last 2 starts against Detroit.
The Chicago White Sox offense has also struggled in their last 2 games scoring just 1 total run and it wont get any easier for them tonight versus Drew Smyly, who is 1-0 with a 1.59 ERA this season and he has a 1.00 ERA on the road this season in 18.0 innings pitched. Drew Smyly also hasn't allowed more than 2 earned runs in any of his 6 starts this season. Drew Smyly has faced Chicago once this season and allowed 2 runs in 6 innings receiving a no-decision. Drew Smyly has not had much run support from his team this season but it shouldn't take many runs tonight for him to post a victory.
Detroit has won the last 6 and 7 of the last 8 versus Chicago. Before losing 2 of their last 3 games at US Cellular Field, Detroit had won 11 of the last 14 in this ballpark. Detroit has a definate edge on the mound tonight and they should post a victory.
