The Detroit Tigers are supposed to be one of the big contenders this season. The Tigers are off to a 12-10 start. Most of the good news for the Tigers has been their home level of play, where they are 8-1. This one is at Fenway Park, and the Tigers have not answered the bell on the road, where they are 4-9. Boston is not faring very well either, at 8-13. The Tigers go with Jack Flaherty, who has been disappointing of late. Going back to last season, he is 2-7, and overall, they are just 5-11 in his last 16 starts. Boston goes with Sonny Gray, who is 4-1 in his last five decisions. I like Boston on the runline.
