It's panic time in Detroit as the Tigers are in danger of blowing a 15-game lead they had over the Guardians in July. However, they're facing a pitcher that could end their hitting slump in Joey Wentz, who has allowed 21 runs in five starts in only 20 1/3 innings pitched. Wentz is on his third team this season, and he has a current ERA of 5.56 with a 1.52 WHIP. The Tigers counter with Keider Montero, who comes off five shutout innings on three hits against Miami. His best work has come in day games with a 3-1 mark and a 3.22 ERA. Detroit is 10-1-1 OVER its past 12 home games against teams with losing records, and it is 10-3 OVER versus the NL East. Detroit has gone OVER eight of 11 overall, and Atlanta has gone OVER five of six. Detroit is 81-65 OVER this season. Take the Tigers and the OVER.
