Preview

The Baltimore Orioles and the Detroit Tigers will play the 2nd game of the series at the Oriole Park at Camden Yards on Tiesday. The Tigers destroyed the Orioles 11-0 in the first game of the series and are 4-0 vs Orioles this season.

 

Detroit Tigers

The Tigers get here with a 56-91 record and have lost 6 of their last 8 games. They're averaging 3.29 runs and batting for .231 AVG, 467 runs scored in 1064 hits and 88 home runs, ranking #30 in offense, the worst in the league behind the Oakland Athletics. Javi Baez is leading in home runs with 14 and 58 RBI and batting for an average of .241.

Defensively they are allowing 4.45 runs per game and ranking #20 in the league. Tarik Skubal leads the pitching staff with a 3.52 ERA, 117 strikeouts and 7 wins recorded.

Probable Pitcher:  Joey Wentz (1-2, 4.15 ERA)

Wentz will be on the mound in the 2nd game of the series for the Tigers. Wentz allowed two runs on four hits across four innings to take the loss Wednesday against the Astros. He walked one and struck out five.

Baltimore Orioles

The Orioles get here with a 76-70 record and have lost 3 of their last 4 games. The team is averaging 4.16 runs per game. They're batting for .236 AVG, 576 runs scored in 1085 hits and 146 home runs, ranking #22 in offense in the league behind the Cincinnati Reds. Anthony Santander leads the team with 27 home runs, 79 RBI and Cedric Mullins is batting for an average of .264.

Defensively they are allowing 4.16 runs per game and rank #10 in the league. Jordan Lyles leads the pitching staff with a 4.70 ERA, 129 strikeouts and 10 wins recorded.

Probable Pitcher: Austin Voth (5-2, 4.36 ERA)

Voth will be on the mound in the 2nd game of the series for the Orioles. Voth earned the win Wednesday over the Nationals. He walked two and struck out none in a scoreless inning. He has allowed 3 runs on 6 hits with 2 walks and 3 strikeouts in 4.1 innings versus the Tigers in his career.

 

BETTING TRENDS

Detroit are 8-0 SU in their last 8 games against Baltimore.

The total has gone OVER in 10 of Detroit's last 11 games on the road.

Detroit are 6-0 SU in their last 6 games when playing on the road against Baltimore.

The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Baltimore's last 6 games against Detroit.

Baltimore are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games at home.

 

Prediction

I don't know what the Tigers have that the Orioles just can't beat them this season even as they're already eliminated. For this game the Tigers will send Joey Wentz who has only 4 starts this season but has done a decent job so far. Austin Voth will start for the Orioles who has been solid this season as he has allowed 2 runs or less in each of his last 6 starts. Expect a low scoring game this time as Voth will slow down the Tigers offense but with the Orioles struggling the under is the play. 

PICK: Under 8 (-110)
