Gambling911.com has your DFS Major League Baseball picks and betting lines for April 6 Opening Day, this time for Detroit’s Miguel Cabrera. At the bottom of this article you will find the scoring system generally used for Daily Fantasy Baseball.
Miguel Cabrera (Detroit – 1B $5K – Cabrera pretty much has owned opposing Twins pitcher Phil Hughes throughout his career. In 31 at-bats against Hughes, Cabrera has hit 16 of 31 with 5 home runs and 4 doubles.
Detroit is a -160 favorite here while the Twins and Hughes are +145 underdogs. One needs to be cautious, however, as Detroit closer Joe Nathan’s seven blown saves last season tied Washington’s Rafael Soriano and Minnesota's Glen Perkins for the most in the majors for any player with at least 16 opportunities.
While the Twins are just 1-4 in Hughes' last 5 starts as a road underdog of +110 to +150, they are also 10-4 in Hughes' last 14 starts as a road underdog.
Minnesota is 4-2 in the last six games of this series.
