Starting Time: 7:05 TV: Fox Sports Kansas City, Fox Sports Detroit Comments: Detroit’s pitching is at last living up to expectations and the Tigers have won their last two games with shutouts. In addition to that, they have held their opponents scoreless now for 21 straight innings. Today’s Tiger starter Edwin Jackson has struggled a bit in his last two of his last three starts, but the figures say he will rebound and be in top form tonight. Detroit’s starters have gone 6-2 with an E.R.A. of 2.12 against Kansas City this season.

*200 Seattle Seahawks +3.5
The Chargers face very little preseason uncertainty after experiencing little roster or staff turnover during this past offseason.
However, the Seahawks are looking at many replacements this year. Hasslebeck who was injury plaqued last year will receive more than his share of snaps tonight. Partly to evaluate his recovery and then to build chemistry with new receivers. Among his first-string targets will be wideout T.J. Houshmandzadeh, who will be making his debut in a Seahawks uniform. Seneca Wallace, the Seahawks are likely to give Jeff Rowe and rookie Mike Teel some snaps
On the other side of the ball, San Diego' starters will probably receive only limited reps, and running back LaDainian Tomlinson is unlikely to play. He never does play in the preseason games. Darren Sproles is likely to appear with the first-team at running back, before Jacob Hester, Michael Bennett and fourth-round draft choice Gartrell Johnson. San Diego reserve quarterbacks Billy Volek and Charlie Whitehurst figure to garner most of the playing time on Saturday behind starter Phillip Rivers.
Look for a close game, and take advantage of the points in this preseason opener.
*200 Detroit Lions -3
Jim Schwartz and Matthew Stafford will be among those making their Lions debuts on Saturday night. I love this matchup tonight. We are getting 3.5 points with a team who has a new new head coach and a battle for the starting quarterback position.
Stafford is battling with incumbent Daunte Culpepper for starting quarterback duties, and the veteran is likely to get the first shot to show what he can do on Saturday. Both will likely play with the starters for some time. Stafford and Culpepper will play hard for us tonight. The Falcons, meanwhile, enter their preseason lid-lifter with more certainty on both sides of the ball following last year's surprising 11-5 campaign. The Falcons will be focusing on the defensive side of the ball and trying to cure some ailments there.
Starting QB and 2008 rookie of the year Matt Ryan is expected to play only briefly before yielding to backups Chris Redman, D.J. Shockley, and possibly rookie John Parker Wilson. Recent reports say that Wilson is dtruggling in practice and missing the mark in several areas.
Take the Lions and the points tonight, but don't get discouraged if we are down for 3 quarters. This will be a close game towards the end of the 4th.
*200 Chicago White Sox -110
I am taking the White Sox for another win today. I have found several nice trends in favor of a White Sox win. First, I have the White Sox as 19-8 SU since 2005 after a win in which they were tied at the end of 6 innings. I also, have the Athletics as 6-15 SU since 2004 at home after scoring 6+ runs loss. Take the White Sox for the win.
