Chicago White Sox at Detroit
Pick: Chicago White Sox +130

Jake Peavy will take the mound tonight for the White Sox. It has been five long years since he was atop the NL with a 19-6 record and dominating hitters. He finally seems to be healthy after arm problems, has arm strength build up and has been pitching to an above average AL ERA of 3.09. He has not allowed more than three runs in any of his last six starts, so the Chi_Sox certainly should be in this one to win it. Doug Fister has pitched well of late for the Tigers, but he was held back from his last start with a groin injury, and noone knows for sure what impact that will have tonight. however, it could go bad. Peavy has come up big on the road against good teams where the Sox are 8-2 in his last ten road starts against a better than .500 team. The Tigers are biting the bullet with Fister on the mound to a low total of 7-8.5 losing their last seven. Play on Chicago.
