Bet On MLB Baseball - Tigers Trying To Fix Problems Against Rangers
Give Detroit Tigers, (8-13, 11-10 O/U)
veteran manger Jim Leyland some credit
for not being afraid to try something
new. Leyland has given the green light
on a position switch between first baseman
Carlos Guillen and third baseman Miguel
Cabrera who was acquired in a trade with
the Florida Marlins and signed to a $152.3
million, eight-year contract last month

Cabrera played designated hitter on
Tuesday, hitting a home run, as the Tigers
spanked the Texas Rangers, (7-14, 10-10-1
O/U) 10-2 in their series opener.
Guillen, who was an All-Star shortstop
last year, moved to first this season
after the Tigers acquired shortstop Edgar
Renteria.
"We think, at this particular time,
this gives us a better team," Leyland
said.
The Tigers have won two straight and
six of their last nine in the BetUS Sportsbook
after getting off to an atrocious 0-7
start.
"We know our offense is capable
of doing this, but we have to do it on
a consistent basis," manager Jim
Leyland said. "This was a good step,
but we've done this before and then gone
back into a slump."
The Rangers have dropped five consecutive
games and 10 of their last 12.
"We're in a funk," Texas manager
Ron Washington said. "First it was
our defense, and now it is the pitching.
It seems to have come all the way around
on us."
The Tigers will send veteran left-hander
Kenny Rogers (1-3) to the mound while
Texas will counter with Luis Mendoza
(0-2, 9.00) who is 0-2 in two starts
covering 8.0 innings with three strikeouts
and six walks.

Analysis: While Tigers crafty veteran
Kenny Rogers is off to a mediocre start
this season, I like Detroit to win this
game quite handily while rocking Rangers
starter Luis Mendoza. Take the Tigers
and their mighty batting order to do
some damage tonight.
