MLB 8/6
Chicago White Sox -107 vs. Detroit Tigers
As much as it pains me to bet on a team starting Hector Santiago, the Tigers were already posting historically bad numbers before the deadline and now are without thier best hitter and reliever. Drew VerHagen has been knocked around between relief and starting this year to the tune of an 11.66 ERA and -2.4 K-BB, which is very bad even in a 14.2 inning sample size.
Washington Nationals -116 vs. San Francisco Giants
I'll roll with the Nats again, as it looks like the Giants offense might finally be crashing. Even though Anibal Sanchez's stuff is getting worse via his K/BB numbers, the veteran has managed to post a perfectly fine 85 ERA-/ 102 FIP-. Conner Menez showed swing-and-miss stuff during his debut, but the projected high walk rate is a concern.
Minnesota Twins -157 vs. Atlanta Braves
There's hope Mike Foltynewicz might be good again this year, but a game against the Twins isn't a great way to get welcomed back to the Majors. The Twins are also throwing thier best in Jose Berrios, who has been terrific with a 60 ERA-/77 FIP-/17.7 K-BB.
