These teams have split six head to head contests
so far in 2007, but Detroit has a decided edge in
the finale of this four game set. The matchup on
the mound features phenomenal Justin Verlander
(+$550, 3.14 ERA in 17 starts) taking on an inept
Jeff Weaver, who, despite some decent starts in
recent days, checks in with a 6.34 overall ERA in
his 12 outings. The Tigers are big money-makers
on the road (+$1175), they average 6.0 runs per
game, and they've amassed a 20-11 mark in day
games this year (+$685). The Mariners are a hot
ballclub, but the deck is stacked against them in
today's game. Lay the price on the better pitcher
Verlander: Det 21-5 as a road favorite of -125 to -150
