J.T. Ginn has quietly turned into one of the better stories in the Athletics' rotation this year, sitting at 7-4 with a 3.04 ERA and 82 strikeouts, numbers that would headline many staffs instead of playing second fiddle to a bigger name. Tarik Skubal is good, 4-4 with a 3.15 ERA, but Detroit as a team enters tonight with a worse overall record than the Athletics, and that gap gets buried every time Detroit's ace takes the mound. The market is pricing this off one arm, not the roster standing behind him, and that's how a home favorite with the lesser record still ends up the chalk. The action backs it up: while the public keeps piling onto Detroit, the sharper money has quietly worked the other way, and splits like that don't happen for no reason. At plus money, the A's don't need Ginn to beat Skubal pitch for pitch. They just need this one to break how the actual standings suggest it should. Take the value and side with the Athletics tonight.

Detroit at Las Vegas
10:05 PM Eastern
Detroit plays its third straight game on the West Coast. They've lost three in a row, including the first two in this series, 8-3 and 7-6, despite being favorites of -220 and -130. This is a tough park to pitch in, and the staff has allowed 25 runs in the last three games. Starter Casey Mize is better at home, with batters hitting .274 off him on the road, and the bullpen is 15th in ERA (3.98). The Athletics are on a 20-10 run and play their third straight at home. The offense is 12th in runs scored, 13th in on-base percentage, and fourth in slugging. 22-year-old Luis Morales (1.72 ERA) has been terrific, holding batters to a .185 average. Play The Athletics.
