The Detroit Tigers (82-62) visit the New York Yankees (80-63) on Tuesday at 7:05 p.m. ET on TBS/truTV.

Detroit Tigers Preview
At the plate, the Tigers rely on Riley Greene, who leads the club at .267 with 32 homers and 103 RBI. Support comes from Spencer Torkelson’s power and a lineup that, while streaky, has lifted Detroit to 180 homers with a .421 slugging percentage. Detroit’s recent five-game run (2–3) shows volatility: six runs or more in the wins, and late scoring droughts in the losses. Detroit needs to put runners on base in front of Greene.
Casey Mize takes the mound for Detroit on Tuesday and enters at 13–5 with a 3.87 ERA and 1.30 WHIP across 125.2 innings, with only 32 walks against 110 strikeouts. He’s allowed 17 homers, but when on his game, he throws first-pitch strikes, ground balls, and quick innings. The Tigers’ overall staff sits at a 3.90 ERA and 1.24 WHIP.
New York Yankees Preview
The lineup edge belongs to the Yankees thanks to an MVP-level season from Aaron Judge (.321/.443/.656, 43 HR, 97 RBI). Protection for Judge has come from Cody Bellinger and Giancarlo Stanton, helping to give New York 243 homers and a .454 slugging clip. New York’s last five (3–2) featured two wins over Toronto; timely extra-base hits have been the difference maker for the Yankees.

New York counters with Will Warren (8–6, 4.28 ERA, 1.39 WHIP) and a bullpen that’s been steady enough to hold leads. Warren has 153 K in 141.0 innings pitched, but has 60 walks, which opens doors for Detroit if it stays patient. The Yankees’ staff ERA (3.92) mirrors Detroit’s, but home field gives New York an advantage.
Detroit Tigers vs New York Yankees Pick
The difference is the power in New York’s order versus Mize, who occasionally gives up too many long balls, and the Yankees’ solid home record. If Warren limits his walks, New York’s solid bullpen can close a one- or two-run game.
