Spread: Minnesota Twins +1.5/Detroit Tigers -1.5
Over/Under: 8.5
Tonight we have a great match up between Detroit's Rick Porcello (11-7, 4.93 ERA) and Minnesota's Francisco Liriano (7-9, 5.00 ERA). The Tigers have a 2.5 game lead in the AL Central so they know that they can't take this series lightly. While the Tigers and the Twins will be battling, the Indiands and the White Sox will be involved in a series of their own. These next few games could be an early example of how important wins will be in the division. The Tigers are going to hope they can extend their lead so they don't have a repeat of their previous collapse. I look for the Tigers to put up 6 runs tonight. At the same time, I see the Twins getting to Porcello early for 3 runs but then Porcello to go into shut down mode.
Note - The over has hit in the last 9 of 13 games between the Tigers and the Twins.
MY PICK: OVER of 8.5
