THE PLAY: Kerry Carpenter Bases Over 1.5 (146) Action
The Tigers just completed a three-game sweep over the Yankees and right fielder Kerry Carpenter was a major contributor in that feat. Carpenter brings a six-game hitting streak to Texas and he's cleared this 1.5 total bases prop in five of those six games. Nineteen of Carpenter's 20 extra-base hits have come against right-hand pitching, which is what he will see against Nathan Eovaldi in Arlington on Thursday. Globe Life Field is a pitcher-friendly park, but for whatever reason, Eovaldi has struggled at home in recent weeks. In his last home start against the Padres, he allowed three runs on seven hits. In his previous home start against the Astros, he allowed five runs including two home runs. When Carpenter is swinging the bat well, he's typically putting the ball in play and not looking for walks. Carpenter has only generated two walks in his last 14 games, so we're looking to capitalize on power opportunities with the bat in his hand. For whatever reason, Carpenter is also hitting much better on the road compared to home this season.
THE PLAY: Colombia to Reach the Quarterfinals
If you were living under a sports betting rock and didn't know what the pre-match odds were, you never would have known that Colombia was a fairly-sizable underdog against Portugal on Friday. Colombia out-played Portugal by a healthy margin in Miami, and if it hadn't been for the out-stretched toe nail of Davinson Sanchez on a highly-questionable offside call, the Colombians would have earned nine points in the group stage. Colombia enjoyed a 1.70-0.92 advantage in expected goals and out-shot Portugal 24-13 with 15 of those shots coming from inside the box. We tip our cap to Ghana for advancing from Group L, but Colombia should handle this first test with relative ease. Ghana deserves plenty of credit for earning that 0-0 draw against England, but England was not overly impressive in any of its three group stage matches. A 2-1 loss to Croatia and a 1-0 win over Panama aren't moving the needle for us, and Colombia should handle business in the Round of 32. They would play the winner of Switzerland-Algeria after that, and we have some major concerns about Switzerland's fitness in this tournament. In the group stage opener against Qatar, the Swiss completely ran out of gas in the second half as they allowed Qatar to score the game-tying goal in the 94th minute. The same thing nearly happened again in the finale against Canada where the Swiss only generated a total of six shots. All three goals that Switzerland has allowed in this tournament have come after the 75th minute. The longer the Swiss stay in this event, the louder we'll be asking questions about their fitness. The opposite is true for Colombia, who have made deep runs in the last two editions of Copa America. Colombia has plenty of tournament experience and they appear to be hitting their stride heading into the knockout round.
