This is an 8* play on the Detroit Tigers.

The visitors hand the ball to RA Dickey (3-8, 4.85 ERA) who is coming off his third loss in his last four outings to Boston on Monday, giving up three runs over six innings. Unfortunately for the veteran, a date on the road is not what the doctor ordered to get back on track as the knuckleballer is 0-5 with a ballooned 5.79 ERA away from friendly confines. The home side counters with David Price (7-2, 2.62 ERA) who is coming off a no-decision in his last start, but who finished June undefeated and who is 2-1 with a 3.64 ERA at home and an even better 1-0 with a tiny 2.16 ERA in all "day" games this season. I like the TIGERS to take advantage of this match-up and to find a way to get the job done at the end of the afternoon, this is indeed the very definition of "great line value."
