White Sox send Garcia to mound in Detroit

Baseball Betting Lines

09/07/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Freddy Garcia tries to win his ninth straight decision as an opposing pitcher at Comerica Park this evening when the Chicago White Sox and Detroit Tigers continue their four-game series.

In his last nine starts as a visitor in Detroit, Garcia has posted an 8-0 mark to go along with a 2.64 earned run average. However, he did lose there while pitching for the Tigers back in 2008.

Garcia has dominated the Tigers pretty much everywhere, though, over the course of his career with an 18-6 lifetime ledger against them with a 3.79 ERA in 30 starts.

Actually, it really hasn't mattered where Garcia has pitched or who he has pitched against this season, as the veteran right-hander is unbeaten in his last four starts and is 11-5 on the year to go along with a 4.82 ERA. However, he had to leave his last start on Wednesday with a sore back.

"I don't know what I can say about him. He's been outstanding," White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen said. "This guy loves big games. He loves to show up and prove how good he is."

The White Sox continued to roll in the opener of this set on Monday, as A.J. Pierzynski singled home the go-ahead run in the top of the 10th inning, lifting Chicago to a 5-4 win. Pierzynski added a two-run single in the second for the White Sox, who are 7-0 on a 10-game road trip.

"We're just finding ways to win games," Pierzynski said. "We're battling. We're not giving at-bats away."

Chicago still trails AL Central-leading Minnesota by 3 1/2 games after the Twins edged Kansas City on Monday.

Don Kelly belted a two-run homer and added an RBI single for Detroit, which has dropped six of its last 10 games.

Hoping to get the Tigers back in the win column this evening will be ace right-hander Justin Verlander, who is 14-8 on the year with a 3.61 ERA. Verlander did not get a decision against the Twins on Thursday, but was hit hard in his team's 10-9 win, allowing six runs -- three earned -- and 10 hits in six innings.

Verlander has faced the White Sox 17 times and is 5-9 against them with a 4.87 ERA.

Chicago is 5-1 in Detroit this season.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
