The Tigers remain in the hunt for the World Series and are one winning streak away from taking a stranglehold on the AL Central lead.

He&#8217;s won 10 games, including two against the Mariners. However, that doesn&#8217;t mean he&#8217;s a slam-dunk betting online pick on Tuesday. In his two wins, he was ordinary, allowing six runs over 12 innings and three homers.<\/p>\n<p>His opponent, Felix Hernandez, couldn&#8217;t be set up better to win. He too is 2-0 against his Tuesday opponent, but he&#8217;s been dominant, sporting a 2.77 ERA and whiffing 14 Tigers in 13 innings. If that doesn&#8217;t convince you, check out King Felix&#8217;s eye-popping road numbers for 2009: 8-1, 1.96 ERA.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #ffffff;\" src=\"http:\/\/baff.betonline.com\/aspx\/affiliateGetImage.aspx?ID_SC=2225&amp;ID_I=1817\" alt=\"Bet Online\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Baseball pick: Mariners<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wednesday, August 19, 7:05 p.m. ET<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ian Snell (0-1, 8.78) vs Justin Verlander (13-6 3.28)<\/p>\n<p>Are you allowed to wave the white flag and forfeit before a game starts? Ian Snell had some nice folklore going for him earlier this summer when he requested a demotion to the minors by the Pirates and proceeded to dominate in Class-AAA. Since being traded to Seattle, however, he&#8217;s been nothing short of a disaster in the big leagues. Now, he&#8217;s facing off against Justin Verlander, a man who&#8217;s 7-1 at home with a 2.05 ERA, 88 strikeouts in 76.2 innings and a .205 opponents&#8217; average. It&#8217;s <a title=\"betting management\" href=\"http:\/\/payperhead.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">betting management<\/a> suicide to pick Seattle.<\/p>\n<p>Baseball pick: Tigers<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thursday, August 20, 1:05 p.m. ET<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ryan Rowland-Smith (2-1, 3.60) vs Jarrod Washburn (8-7, 2.95)<\/p>\n<p>This Ryan Rowland-Smith character has made a decent impression in limited duty as a starter this season. He&#8217;s faced some good offenses &#8211; the Yankees, Rays, and Jays &#8211; and pitched well. The main storyline of the day is Jarrod Washburn facing the Mariners for the first time since they traded him. He hasn&#8217;t pitched well in Detroit, but he should be extra motivated to beat his old buddies. Look for Washburn to pass his test on Thursday. The current Mariner lineup shouldn&#8217;t scare him too much; even Ichiro bats a pedestrian .286 against Washburn in 56 career at-bats.<\/p>\n<p>Baseball pick; Tigers<\/p>\n<h3>If you love betting on MLB games, you\u2019ve found a new home.
