Astros vs. Tigers MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Take the under in the first five innings. Verlander was roughed up in last outing, however I expect him to bounce back in this spot. On the other side Flaherty has been great, despite his 0-2 record. He has a WHIP of 1.05 and 56 strikeouts in 42 innings of work. I don’t think either offense has much success early in this one.
MLB BETTING PREDICTION: Under 4 F5
