It's not very often - if ever - I land on the Over when the Tigers are involved. But I'll make an exception here in a pitching matchup of Eduardo Rodriguez versus Dallas Keuchel.
Rodriguez has been anything but reliable. He's been on and off Detroit's roster going through a tumultuous season. Rodriguez's road ERA is 5.30. The Rangers rank 10th in runs scored. Detroit's bullpen has regressed as the innings have piled up.
The Rangers are likely to find out first-hand what the White Sox and Diamondbacks learned the hard way this year - Keuchel is washed-up. Keuchel compiled a 2-7 record and 8.53 ERA pitching for the White Sox and Arizona this season before those teams wised up and released him.
Even when he was good, Keuchel had trouble with the Rangers posting a 4.98 ERA in 15 appearances, including 13 starts.
