The Detroit Tigers have started quickly, at 2-0, and look to make it three straight vs. the San Diego Padres, who are at home. The Tigers have allowed the Padres just four total runs in the two games played so far. Randy Vasquez will take the ball for the Padres tonight, and he pitched to a respectable 3.84 ERA last year. There may be some hidden value behind Vasquez in this game, as he pitched to a 3.28 ERA in home games on the season a year ago. The Padres' bats are hitting just .194, and with Vasquez having good success at home, limiting opponents, I like the UNDER in this one.

Detroit at San Diego

March 27, 2026

9:40 PM Eastern

Detroit opened up the vault for starter Framber Valdez (3.66 ERA in 2025), Justin Verlander, and reliever Kenley Jansen. Valdez will start, while Jansen had a 2.59 ERA and 29 saves last season with the Angels. San Diego's offense went bust in the opener, mustering five hits and two runs. Starter Michael King is healthy and showcased his 93-94 MPH sinker in Spring Training. San Diego's bullpen was No. 1 last year with a 3.06 ERA, so don't look for many runs. Take Detroit/San Diego UNDER the total.

San Diego comes off a 2-0 loss yesterday and has a losing road mark. They're a long way from home, and starter Kyle Hart (6.48 ERA) has allowed 28 base runners in 16+ innings. While this is the sixth straight road game for the Padres, the Tigers are playing their seventh consecutive home contest. Detroit's offense is 11th in runs scored and 11th in on-base percentages. Reese Olson has a 1.64 ERA at home, and the team has won his last three starts. Play Detroit.

First-place San Diego's offense is No. 1 in on-base percentages, sixth in steals, 11th in runs scored, and fifth in slugging.

Detroit's offense is eighth in on-base percentage and 10th in runs scored. Take San Diego/Detroit OVER the total.
