The Tigers will be fighting to end a 4-game losing skid when they host the Cleveland Indians on Friday at Comerica Park.
The Indians start Jake Westbrook, 2-0, 1.98 ERA, while the Tigers start Kenny Rogers, 1-1, 4.76 ERA.
Sporting a 6-3 overall record and a 5-1 mark within the division, the Indians aim to knock the Tigers (2-3 in the division) for a loss.
Oddsmakers like the Tigers in this one, opening the line at 115 in favor of Detroit. They are 5-4 this season, while the Indians are 6-3. The total, which is 3-6-0 to the OVER in Tigers games and 6-3-0 in Indians games, opened at 9.
Eric Wedge's troops hosted Seattle last game and came away with a 9-5 loss, a game that went over 8. Oddsmakers had them as favorites in that one.
Meanwhile, at Comerica Park, the pic Tigers were losing to the White Sox 13-9. The game was an over play.
The hosts have strikeout specialists on staff and they rank first in the league, whiffing 7.4 per game. They will be looking to prove that reputation true again today.
