The Angels have simply been a dumpster fire this year and probably should have traded Shohei at the deadline. Griffin Canning (7-6, 4.34 ERA) will start the series opener for the Angels (68-79). He lost his past two starts, including an outing against the Cleveland Guardians on Sept. 6, when he allowed three runs and eight hits in 5 1/3 innings. He will be opposed by Tarik Skubal (5-4, 3.47 ERA), who has won both of his September starts. The left-hander held the Chicago White Sox to two runs in seven innings on Sept. 3, then blanked the White Sox for five innings while recording nine strikeouts on Saturday. We like Skubal to keep doing his thing, and Canning likely struggles. The Angels are 5-11 in their last 16 games. Let's roll with Detroit.
