It was a tough 1-2 day with my premium plays (Green Bay/Seattle Under 47, Stl/Pitt Over 8.5, Texas San Antonio +7.5) but for those of you that jumped on board my free plays managed to negate those losses with a 2-1 day and another TOP play winner. If it wasn’t for a blown save by Boston’s closer it would have been another free play sweep and that’s what I’m aiming for tonight. It’s going to be a very busy weekend with Week 2 of CFB and a full slate of NFL games on Sunday, so let’s try and enter the weekend with a few more dollars in our bankrolls with tonight’s free plays.

I’ve got three CFB plays loaded up for premium clients tonight so make sure you sign up and get on board with those. So let’s attack the MLB card with these free plays.

San Francisco/Detroit Over 8.5 (-115) $345 to win $300

Jake Peavy may be in a different league now, but he can’t be happy to see the Detroit Tigers again. In two starts against Detroit (last year’s ALCS and this season) with Boston, Peavy has an 0-2 SU record and has allowed 16 hits and 12 earned runs in only nine innings of work. Detroit put up 13 runs in those two victories as this lineup of great hitters clearly has a beat on Peavy. The Tigers are coming off a series where they scored double digit runs in two of their four contests against Cleveland as their bats are heating up at the right time.

San Fran’s bats are hot right now two with double digit runs scored in two of their last four games as well with the Giants trying to keep pace with the Dodgers in the NL West race. They know Peavy’s past numbers against this Tigers team and understand that they’ll have to knock around Porcello early and often if they want to get a W.

We’ve also seen some line movement on this contest as the total has jumped up from it’s opening number of 8. But with Detroit’s past against Peavy and a 20-8-2 O/U run in their last 30 series openers it’s the high side of this total that has me excited. The Tigers are also 9-1 O/U the last ten times they’ve been a favorite of -150 or less and San Fran is on a 5-0-1 O/U run on the road. I’m siding with the move here as I think we see a slugfest in Detroit tonight.

Boston ML (+102) $200 to win $204

So the Jays have won five in a row and the fan base is excited again as Toronto attempts to make one final surge towards the playoffs. But like I said last week, this is a team I’ll be looking to fade in the right spots and tonight is one of those opportunities.

Boston is back at home after a long road trip ended with their closer blowing a save last night. That cost me my ‘under’ play, but tonight’s the night that Boston knocks around Drew Hutchinson again. The last time this Sox team faced tonight’s starter it was a 14-1 beatdown by Boston as they scored six runs in under three innings as the rout was on. I don’t think it will be that easy for Boston tonight, but with the Jays getting the majority of the love tonight as bettors are starting to believe in them again, I’m back on the Toronto fade train as the Jays are simply working their fans up for nothing.
