Daily Bet - Detroit Tigers vs Kansas City Royals

Written by: Josh Hammer, The Reserve Clause

MLB Pick for August 6, 2011:

Spread: Detroit Tigers -1.5/Kansas City Royals +1.5
Over/Under: 7.5

I am going against my #1 rule and giving out a pick that involves my favorite MLB team, the Detroit Tigers. But why wouldn't I put up a pick that had them winning when they are throwing their ace Justin Verlander (15-5, 2.24 ERA)?! Exactly, you wouldn't! The Kansas City Royals will try to keep pace with Verlander by matching him up against Danny Duffy (3-5, 5.05 ERA). Although last night's match up went in to extra innings in which the Tigers won because of Boesch, I look for the Royals to not even be close in this match up against the potent Verlander. Detroit Tigers are also 6-1 in their last 7 games against the Royals.

MY PICK: Detroit Tigers to cover the spread of -1.5
