Friday’s MLB Free Pick
CLEVELAND, OH (The Spread) – The Detroit Tigers hope to close the gap on the Cleveland Indians in the AL Central when the two begin a three-game series on Friday.
Oddsmakers from online sports book SBGGLOBAL.com have made the visiting Tigers –113 on the money line against the Indians, who are +106 on the ML. The over/under total for this game is currently 9 runs.
The Tigers have been a hard team to figure out. Right after a sweep of the White Sox, the Tigers dropped three straight at home to the Mariners, including a loss with a money line of -205 when Justin Verlander was on the mound. Detroit won its last road series, which was the first time it had done that all season.
Cleveland is still on a roll, sitting at 16-8, but the Indians still aren’t getting much respect. The Indians are 8-0 at home so far this season, and that includes three games where their money line was +100 or greater.
MLB Free Pick: The Indians are too good to pass up at home and the Tigers are still a hard team to rely on. According to latest MLB odds, the Tigers are just 1-4 in Max Scherzer’s last five road starts where the team is a road favorite. Detroit is also 0-8 in their last 8 games in Cleveland and 3-7 in their last 10 meetings with the Indians overall.
