ASA top play on 10* OVER 8.5 Detroit Tigers @ Oakland A's, 9:40 PM ET - The Tigers are scoring better than most expected early this season. Yesterday's game was an 8-4 loss for Detroit at Oakland but it was the 3rd straight over in Tigers games. Detroit has scored an average of 6 runs a game in its last 4 games. The Tigers have a .416 slugging percentage on the season which ranks 6th in the majors. Though the A's have poor overall numbers offensively this season, they are absolutely trending the right direction. The over is 4-0 in Oakland's last 4 games and the Athletics are truly in the zone right now as they have won 5 straight games thanks in large part to a scoring average of 7.4 runs during the streak. Each of these teams have bullpens that rank near the bottom of the majors for relievers ERA early this season and that is an issue here too because each of the starters have an ERA above 8.00 early this season. Frankie Montas struggled badly in his only home start this season and Jose Urena has had issues in both his starts this season. Each of the last two years Urena has finished the season with an ERA above 5.00 so this might be his last start in the rotation for now if things don't turn around. Spencer Turnbull is likely back soon and Urena would be the odd man out. While he is still out there we are going to take advantage of his turn in the rotation and look for plenty of runs from both sides in this one! Bet Over
