They enter this game with a 28-44 record overall and have a road record of 10-22. This is the series opener of a 2-game series with the Giants on Tuesday and they had Monday off as a rest day. Their offense ranks 29th in the MLB with a .612 OPS. Rookie pitcher Beau Brieske was their starting pitcher on Sunday while Tarik Skubal will be making his start in this game. He is 5-5 with a 3.63 ERA this season. His team lost their last 3 straight games with him making an appearance. In his last start, he allowed 6 earned runs, 1 homer, and 3 BB on 5 strikeouts with 6 hits through 4.2 innings played against the Boston Red Sox. 

 

The Giants have lost 4 of their last 5 games and are entering this game off of a loss. They lost their last series against the Cincinnati Reds 2-1 in a 3-game series. They enter this game with a 39-33 record overall and have a home record of 20-16. This is the series opener of a 2-game series with the Tigers and they had Monday off as a rest day. Their offense ranks 10th in the MLB with a .726 OPS. Anthony DeSclafani was on the mound on Sunday while Carlos Rodón will be throwing the first pitch in this game on Tuesday. He is 6-4 with a 2.70 ERA this season. His team won 2 of their last 3 games with him making an appearance. In his last start, he allowed 1 ER, 0 HRs, and 1 BB on 10 Ks with 3 hits through 7 IP against the Atlanta Braves. 

 

The current betting odds have the Tigers listed as an underdog here. The Tigers just won 2 of their 3 road games against the D-backs in their last series and they were scoring a lot of runs in those games. They had a chance to win that last game as well but their bullpen was not up to the challenge and gave that game away. The Giants have not been playing very well recently as they just lost their last series to one of the worst teams in the MLB, the Cincinnati Reds, and they were at home for that series allowing a lot of runs in their games due to a bad collective performance by their starters and bullpen. The Tigers have Skubal starting here and he is coming off of some bad starts in his last few but he has been very good all season and just started to slip up recently. He will bounce back in this game with a Giants lineup that has been weak on offense recently. The Tigers have also been hitting the ball much better themselves and with the way this Giants pitching has been performing recently, the Tigers will get their hits and score runs here. The best way to place a bet here is on the Tigers to win this game.
