Detroit did come back to win last night but I\u2019m just not really buying into them.<\/p>\n<p>Brad Penny was really good for\u00a0a little while but the right-hander came back down to Earth in that beatdown in Pittsburgh last time out and I can see him continue to plummet a bit today and continue on a downward trend. I don\u2019t love\u00a0the Rays offense at all as it\u2019s Evan Longoria and a lot of mediocrity but the Tigers are just overall very mediocre themselves if not for Miggy\u00a0and they start a guy that in my opinion is ready to go through a lean period.<\/p>\n<p>Andy Sonnanstine has\u00a0sort of been the forgotten man in Tampa as he was a key cog in the World Series season a few years back. After that Sonnanstine\u00a0has been\u00a0pretty much relegated to the bullpen. Well now he\u2019s back and if he pitches well may stay in the rotation. I\u2019m not calling\u00a0the guy\u00a0an elite hurler\u00a0or anything like that but\u00a0he is alright and overall\u00a0Joe Maddon\u2019s club is better and more well balanced than Detroit, I don\u2019t care about last night or the similar records.<\/p>\n<p>The bottom line is that this is at worst a 50-50 game, even in Comerica, and to get anything back with the\u00a0Rays is the right side, period.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/offshoreinsiders.com\/index.php?PageID=140\">Top expert pick<\/a> on this game: It\u2019s now 11 of 15 winning days and 51 of the last 80 for a profit of 7.5 million*. No doubt I got lucky on the Heat but let\u2019s not forget how I had the late lead blown and was very unlucky with the big dog Tampa Bay Rays. So all in all just another deserving winning day as I continue to smack around that crookie.<\/p>\n<p>Raising that bar with a 400,000* from Big D between the Thunder and Mavericks plus a 200,000* on the diamond involving the Mets and Cubs.
