Pick
Both of these teams have played well in recent games and both have won a game in this series. Detroit is playing much better than they did to start the season, but they are still inconsistent offensively. The Tigers are starting Eduardo Rodriguez, who has allowed a total of one run in his last 28.2 innings pitched. Cleveland is starting Peyton Battenfield, who has allowed three earned runs or fewer in four of his last five appearances. I like the Tigers in this matchup with Rodriguez on the mound.
