The Detroit Tigers host the Chicago White Sox at Comerica Park this afternoon, and both teams are coming off a loss. I'm expecting to see a pitcher's duel in the Motor City, with two capable starters on the hill today.
Here are my keys to the game:
1. Pitching - Alfredo Simon will get the nod for the Tigers, and he was not sharp in his latest start. Simon only lasted 2.2 innings, giving up seven runs on eight hits in a loss to the Yankees in New York. He has been far better in Detroit than he has been on the road, with a record of 4-1 with a 1.58 ERA at Comerica Park. The White Sox hand the ball to Carlos Rodon, who is 2-0 with a 2.25 ERA in four starts in the afternoon.
2. Previous History - Carlos Rodon has allowed two runs or less in eight of his last 10 appearances.
3. X-Factor - Miguel Cabrera is hitting .226 in nine games against the White Sox this season.
Selection: This is a play on Chicago White Sox +1.5 (8*)
