Kansas City Royals first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino (9) hits a home run.<\/p>\n<div class=\"covers-CoversArticles-articleText cmg_editorial_article_text\">\n<p>Vinnie Pasquantino is in the midst of a huge power surge. He has homered in five of his last 10 games and averaged 3.3 total bases along the way.<\/p>\n<p>My Tigers vs. Royals predictions expect Pasquantino\u2019s power to be on full display against Chris Paddack.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s break things down further with <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/picks\/mlb\">MLB picks<\/a> for Friday, August 29.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Best_Bet\">Tigers vs Royals prediction<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Tigers vs Royals best bet<\/strong>: Vinnie Pasquantino Over 1.5 Total Bases (+110)<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/sport\/baseball\/mlb\/players\/247028\/vinnie-pasquantino\">Vinnie Pasquantino<\/a> has teed off on right-handed pitching this season. He is sporting a .278 average with a .227 ISO and 41 extra base hits.<\/p>\n<p>He stands a good chance of adding to that total Friday night. Pasquantino draws an advantageous matchup against <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/sport\/baseball\/mlb\/players\/27858\/chris-paddack\">Chris Paddack<\/a>, who owns a 4.98 ERA and has allowed more than 50 extra base hits on the year.<\/p>\n<p>Pasquantino hasn\u2019t seen much of Paddack, but is 2-5 with a double and a homer. He\u2019s generated a lot of power over a small sample, which checks out given Paddack\u2019s pitch mix.<\/p>\n<p>Paddack leans most heavily on the fastball, changeup, and curveball against left-handed hitters. Pasquantino has combined to hit 12 homers against the fastball and changeup. He\u2019s also hit .303 vs. the curveball, one of his highest averages of any pitch.<\/p>\n<p>There are a lot of ways for Pasquantino to cause problems for Paddack in this matchup. After a few quiet games, I like Pasquantino\u2019s chances of hitting for some power in this one.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"+450_SGP\">Tigers vs Royals same-game parlay (SGP)<\/h2>\n<p>The bad news is that <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/sport\/baseball\/mlb\/players\/194043\/kerry-carpenter\">Kerry Carpenter<\/a> is a little cold at the dish. He has zero homers over his last nine games and has cleared this line just twice. The good news is Carpenter has a .270 ISO vs. right-handed pitchers this season and draws Seth Lugo, who has allowed a .246 ISO and 2.4 homers per nine innings against left-handed bats. Advantage Kerry Bonds.<\/p>\n<p>If Pasquantino, Carpenter, and some of the power hitters in this game are to pile up the bases, there\u2019s a good chance runs follow in bulk.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Odds\">Tigers vs Royals odds<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Moneyline<\/strong>: Detroit +107 | Kansas City -119<\/li>\n<li><strong>Run line<\/strong>: Detroit \u00a0+1.5 (-194) | Kansas City -1.5 (+169)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Over\/Under<\/strong>: Over 9.0 (+102) | Under 9.0 (-117)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Tigers vs Royals trend<\/h2>\n<p>Vinnie Pasquantino has averaged 2.5 total bases spanning his last 20 home games.
