The Detroit TIgers and Houston Astros face off on Monday in an MLB showdown at MInute Maid Park. This will be the first meeting of the year for both teams. 

THe Tigers knew there might be some struggles heading into the season and they were sept over the weekend by the Clevlenad Indians.

Akil Baddooo has been the best player so far this season hitting two home runs and driving in seven RBI’s. 

On the other side of this matchup is the Houston Astros who got out to a super fast start to the season and they have lost two games in a row. The offense was strong to start the season but over the last two games they have scored only five runs total. Kyle Tucker has been the best player for the Astros hitting four home runs and driving in 11 RBI’s. 

Casey Mize will get the start for the Tigers and in his first start against the Twins he went four innings giving up five hits and one run.

On the mound for the Astros will be Zack Greinke and in 13 innings so far this year he has given up eiight hits and two runs. 

Tigers are 16-39 in their last 55 road games with the total set at 9.0-10.5.
