MLB - 913 Detroit Tigers @ 914 Toronto Blue Jays
(Starting Pitchers: D. Fister vs C. Wang)
***DOUBLE DIME PLAY - SPLIT THE WAGER***
Toronto crushed Detroit yesterday on Canada Day, on a game where the Blue Jays had an evident SP edge. Things will be very different tonight. Toronto will start Chien-Ming Wang, who had two great starts at Texas and against Baltimore, but then he exploded at Boston. Wang is allowing .322 BA this season and with just a 4.35 K/9 rate, I don't see how he will avoid getting crushed by the Tigers today. Detroit is #2 on wOBA with .338 and they are #1 in the league on K% with 16.7%, so they are a horrible matchup for Wang.
On the other side, Doug Fister will start for the Tigers tonight and he had an excellent bounce back against the Angels, after struggling against Boston. The Tigers lost that game against the Angels, but Fister allowed just one earned run in seven innings. Fister faced four good offenses on his last five starts and his last three outings were indeed against elite offenses over the last month: LA Angels #3, Boston #2 and Minnesota #6. Therefore, we can sat that Fister will be well tested to face the Blue Jays tonight. We have a clear SP edge in here favoring Detroit, with a slight offensive edge favoring the Tigers as well. So, I'll be taking Detroit tonight on a Double Dime Play. Split the wager.
