Struggling RHSP who barely throws 90mph (Blackburn) & worst AL offense team=high probability for Det success tonight. Porcello last year(4 starts) vs Minny=24inn, 21h, 6er, 8bb, 1.2whip & 2.25era. Det & Porcello won all 4 of those games last year 10-2, 4-2, 5-2, 8-1. More importantly the Tigers were up after 5innings in all 4 Porcello games vs Minny L yr: 6-1, 4-0, 4-2, 2-1. So I get the Tigers vs yet another struggling RHSP (Where lots of their success has came from this year as you will see below in previous links posted here)
And I also get to fade the worst offense in the american league in runs per game at 3.33rpg and 26th in MLB batting at .235. And I get to do it with one of the more serviceable (one of my favorite words used to describe Porcello as he's not lights out but he gets the job done vs the lessor teams) pitchers in the american league. If you have been following the Tigers at all this season you should already understand that Leyland continues to make bad decisions with his bullpen (Which sucks BTW). So I will simply avoid the full game by doing this below...

Atl RL-1.5(+175)2u(Minor/Buehrle)... This will be Buehrle's toughest test yet this yr (Even if Freeman doesn't play). Buehrle has faced these opponents so far: .238ba, .259ba, .247, .264ba(2x), .248ba, .223ba. The Braves bat .269 as a team. Buehrle's opp's vs LHP avg get's even worse this year: 259ba, .238ba, .229ba, .259ba(2x), .229ba, .222ba. The Braves bat .264 vs LHP this yr. In simple terms 6 of Buehrle's 7 opponents this year had a worse ba vs LHP compared to RHP by an avg of 11.5pts worse than vs RHP. The .264ba that the Braves are batting vs LHP=highest avg Buehrle has seen so far. Minor as faced opp w/ ba vs LHP of: .259, .241, .229, .254, .222, .240, .303...The Fish bat a mere .203 vs LHP this yr. Buehrle's 7 opp have averaged a total of .242 vs LHP & Minor's 7 opp have averaged a total of .250 vs LHP this yr=Minor had the tougher opponents. Minor's era does not tell the whole truth so far as doesn't Buehrle's.

Justin Henry singled in the third today stretching his average to .439 in the month of May for the MudHens. He's batting .343 on the season with an obp% of a scorching hot .431. He has 34 hits in 99 at bats with 16 walks and only 8 times has he struck out. He has also stolen 5 bases in 8 attempts. He batted .314 last year for Toledo in 395 at bats with an obp% of .414 with 23 stolen bases and only 54 strikeouts. He has played 2b, 3b and OF during his time in Toledo. He is 27 years old and is 6' 3" 180llb's. So let me get this straight the Tigers currently have a 27 year old that rarely strikes out who has carried an on base % of > .400 (For 2 years now) to go along with a batting average of >.300 (for 2 years now), not to mention he has speed (stealing bases) and he has played multiple games at 2b. Sounds to me like that's exactly everything the Tigers need. Maybe i'm a bit biased because my boys got his autograph from him at a Toledo game but come on numbers don't lie!

that houston game could go either way. i personally like the undr, but it could hit 9 runs late in 8th or meaningless hr top 9th. good luuck
The day I have to start attempting to handicap meaningless HR's in the 9th inning is the day I will no longer be attempting to do this. It's going to happen, just have to deal with the BS and move on when it does happen....

Yea. That sucks. Almost 1300 views in 10 minutes.....
That shit ain't cool - same thing happened to PapaShango last week... and me the week before.
Somebody is trying to be funny with the F5 button.
Covers should be in debt to your investigative reports. Maybe they can get you on payroll to rid of the rif raf that infests this forum. Or at least get some block buttons installed (like twitter)...

Most is easy to ignore.
But while I'm browsing through the forum your views stick out like a sore thumb.
