MLB Betting Trends
Detroit
The Tigers are 28-60 in their last 88 road games. Detroit is 0-5 in the last five Boyd starts.
Chicago
The White Sox are 4-0 in their last four Thursday games. Chicago is 11-5 in its last 16 home games.
Prediction:
Detroit hasn’t been supporting Boyd well lately and he also hasn’t been pitching quite as well as earlier in the season. Chicago has played well at home over the last month and has a lineup equipped to handle lefties. While Lopez is having a rough season, he does have a 14-strikeout game against the lowly Tigers to his credit. Taking the hosts today to sweep.
