The Coach's MLB Runline *PUNISHER*
(MLB) Chi Cubs vs. Detroit,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -160.00 Detroit (Home)
Result: Loss
The Detroit Tigers have won three straight heading into tonight's home game against the Cubs, and I think they'll remain hot here with another favorable match-up.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Pitching - Shane Greene will be on the hill for the Tigers, and he's been much better at home than he has been on the road. Greene (4-5, 5.40 ERA) was roughed up in a home loss to Oakland in his last start. He has been pretty decent at home overall though, going 2-2 with a 3.82 ERA in six starts. The Cubs hand the ball to Jake Arrieta, who was lit up for five runs on 10 hits over just 4.2 innings in his last visit to Detroit.

2. Batter vs. Pitcher - Miguel Cabrera was 3-for-3 last night, and he's 3-for-9 lifetime versus Arrieta.

3. -Factor - The Cubs have lost 10 of their last 11 meetings versus Detroit.

Selection: This is a play on the Detroit Tigers +1.5 (8*)
