Detroit southpaw Matthew Boyd (2-3, 6.47 ERA) has had a rough start to the year, and here he'll face a Nats team that is batting .289 while averaging 5.00 runs per nine innings against left-handers.

Nationals rookie right-hander Jake Irvin (1-1, 4.11 ERA) had opened the season with two sold outings before getting slapped around by the Mets in his last start. The Tigers do not have the same firepower; they rank 29th for runs scored with 3.51 runs per game.
