Detroit Tigers vs Milwaukee Brewers Prediction

I considered the Brewers and the plus money because this is a revenge spot for Alexander after being drafted by the Tigers twice and then being waived. Alexander has also been sharp this season overall, allowing eight hits and four runs in 12.2 innings. With that said, Skubal is one of the best pitchers in baseball, and he’s due for a bounce-back effort after a sluggish start to the season. The Tigers have scored four or more runs in 11 of their 15 games, and that sort of run support with Skubal on the mound is a winning recipe. Give me the Tigers and the RL for maximum betting value.
