The Tigers have trouble scoring, but they have given Friday starter Tarik Skubal plenty of runs in his past two outings, while he didn’t allow any. He hasn't allowed an earned run in four of his seven starts this season. The total has gone over in Aaron Civale's last six starts, and it’s mostly his fault. He has allowed 30 runs over those six appearances. Civale beat Skubal three times in 2021. Skubal has a new grip in 2022. Tigers to win.

Tarik Skubal has Cy Young Award-worthy stuff. He's getting swings and misses on multiple pitches and is should be quite confident coming off an 11-strikeout outing. Aaron Civale might be headed to the minors if he keeps this up for the Guardians. 16 XBH in under 25 IP? A whip of 1.74? Even Detroit's lineup can feast on that. Tigers to win.
