AccuScore’s predictions are based on 10,000-plus simulations performed by the company’s computer.  Throughout the baseball season, AccuScore will be stacking up its projections against Las Vegas odds and recommending wagers when value presents itself.

Detroit Tigers +106 (@ Oakland Athletics)
Jesse Hahn vs Shane Greene

Simply too good an offer to let slip through our fingers. The Tigers have lost two in a row, whereas the Athletics have won two, and the betting market may be overreacting to these short-term results.

AccuScore simulations predict the Tigers to have a 57.5 chance to win the opening game of this series. This would present odds at -135, so there’s obvious value at plus-money for the visitors.

The Tigers are 12-7 on the road and 6-3 when Shane Greene starts.  The A's are 5-14 at home and 1-6 when Jesse Hahn starts.

AccuScore’s season-to-date record on LM: 35-38 (-3.23 units)
