Tips and Trends

Detroit Tigers at Los Angeles Angels

Tigers: The Tigers are an underdog for just the second time in Justin Verlander’s last 19 starts. The Tigers are 2-4 when Verlander has been a ‘dog this season. Verlander, 13-7 record with a 3.29 ERA, leads the American League in strikeouts. However, the star right-hander is just 6-5 on the road with a 4.27 ERA compared to 7-2 with a 2.23 ERA at Comerica Park. Verlander shut out the Angels in one home start this season, allowing four hits in eight scoreless innings. But in his other start this season against the Angels on the road, Verlander was lit up for seven runs and nine hits in five innings. Detroit has lost 22 of its last 30 away contests. The Tigers have lost 10 consecutive road series. Detroit has been held to three or fewer runs in seven of its last 11 games.

The Under is 15-8-1 in the Tigers’ last 24 road games.

Key Injuries - Joel Zumaya (shoulder) is on the DL.

PROJECTED SCORE: 4

Angels (-$1.25, O/U 8.5 under -$1.15): The Angels are glad to be returning home following a 10-game road swing, where they went 6-4 but struggled at Toronto. Los Angeles is 38-15 in its last 53 home contests. Starting pitcher Jered Weaver, 13-4 record and 3.89 ERA, is coming off his second career shutout and fourth career complete game. He threw a seven-hitter in blanking the Indians on the road last Wednesday night. Weaver faced the Tigers back in April. He yielded three earned runs in seven innings, but didn’t factor in the decision. Career-wise versus Detroit, Weaver is 2-1 with a 7.08 ERA in four outings. Weaver has been his best at Angels Stadium going 8-1 with a 2.76 ERA this season in 13 home outings. In contrast, Weaver is 5-3 on the road with a 5.35 ERA. Weaver has allowed at least four earned runs in five of his past seven starts.

The Over is 38-15-2 in the Angels’ last 55 games.
