(MLB) Detroit vs. Cincinnati,
Money Line: -128.00 Cincinnati (Home)
Result: Win
Michael Fulmer was once considered the ace of this Tigers program but he just hasn't progressed. In his last seven starts he is posting a 4.76 ERA and he's never been a guy who can beat you with the strikeout. We have him rated 15% below a league average hurler, which is very disappointing to the Tigers management. Tyler Mahle didn't have the same early success as Fulmer, but he's developed better than his American League competitor. In his last seven starts he's allowed a 3.53 ERA. While Detroit is a pretty good pitchers park this Cincinnati venue is great for hitters. We rate the Reds 17% better offensively in this matchup as this team really does have some productive bats and the Tigers lose their DH in an NL park.
