Result: Loss
Money Line: 163.00 Detroit (Home)
Result: Loss
This is an 8* play on the Detroit Tigers.
We think this is a good spot to pull the trigger on the home dog:
Dallas Keuchel: He's 9-0 with a 1.67 ERA. Keuchel has been out for nearly two months with a neck injury he suffered in early June. Keuchel made two rehab appearances and gave up one run over eight innings of work. Keuchel appears ready to return to form, but note that he'll definitely be under a pitch count in his first start back.
Jordan Zimmermann: He's 6-8 with a 5.81 ERA. Off perhaps one of his best outings of the year, Zimmermann then came back with a dud last time out, giving up five runs over 3.2 innings in a loss to the Twins on Saturday. For the most part Zimmermann has struggled this year, but note that he's been his most solid at home by going 5-3 with a 4.31 ERA.
The bottom line: This is a solid situational play. Keuchel is under a pitch count and draws a tough matchup in his first big league start in two months. Meanwhile Zimmermann is doing everything he can to finish the season strong. We look for Zimmermann to at least match Keuchel inning for inning and in a scenario like that, the value swings to the underdog. Play on the TIGERS.
