Detroit at Tampa Bay

Tampa Bay dropped the first two games of this series, including a shutout Tuesday, and now sends Nick Martinez to the mound for the finale. In 11 starts, he has not allowed more than two runs in a single outing — three straight quality starts heading in, minimal walks, and consistent depth into games. Troy Melton has been equally stingy across his two starts back from an elbow strain, allowing just two runs combined. Both offenses are cold in this spot: Tampa Bay ranks 24th in runs scored over the past two weeks, and Detroit 22nd over the same span. Two sub-2.00 ERA starters working against two offenses trending in the wrong direction. This projects well below the posted total. Take the Tigers/Rays UNDER.
