MLB Premium Play 08/14: Detroit Tigers @ Chicago White Sox

MLB - 965 Detroit Tigers @ 966 Chicago White Sox

(Starting Pitchers: R. Porcello vs J. Danks)

***DOUBLE DIME PLAY***

Detroit have lost their last three games and yesterday they made some poor mistakes, as only two of the four runs that the White Sox scored were earned. Rick Porcello will start for the Tigers tonight and he has been very solid lately. However, he struggled a bit on his last outing at NY against the Yankees, with three earned runs in five innings. He faced the White Sox twice recently and he looked good in both games. He has been solid lately, so I expect him to have another decent outing tonight.

On the other side, John Danks will start for the White Sox and he is coming from allowing three runs in six innings against Minnesota last Friday. He had a season high five walks in that outing and he has been heavily prone to allowing home runs with 21 allowed in 95.2 innings! Danks allowed three home runs on each of his last two games against Detroit. This combination of poor control and HR prone issues will make him get pounded against a fired up Tigers lineup. Detroit will try to avoid a sweep today and I expect them to achieve that with an easy win in here. I'm taking the Tigers today on a Double Dime Play!

Pick: 4 units (Double Dime Play) on 965 Detroit Tigers RL -1 (w/ R. Porcello) @ -131 / 1.76 on 5Dimes
