Playing all dogs doesn't necessarily get you killed. In the first full month of the season, if you blindly bet the underdog in every game, you came out way ahead. I'm not sure if that held up over the rest of the season up to this point, but I'm just trying to make the point that the books love when they can throw -180 or more behind a big name and the public still pounds it with $. I'll bet they capped this game at about -145, but know they can sell it for -180 because of the name "Verlander"...and over the test of time they profit and the public loses.

Detroit has won 63.2% of Verlanders starts this year. Close enough if you ask me.
Furthermore, Detroit is 10-1 against CWS in the last 3 years when Verlander has started. (91%).
I'm not arguing with your premise, but be careful.
