Diamondbacks vs Tigers Prediction
Detroit was able to pick up another badly needed win on Monday night, as they try to get back on track after a very bad two weeks. The Tigers are 34-21 at home this season, while the Diamondbacks are 25-28 on the road. Arizona has completely fallen apart in their last few series and they have scored a grand total of two runs in their last four games. Arizona is starting Pfaadt, who has allowed two earned runs or fewer in four of his last five starts. Detroit is going with Mize, who has allowed 4, 1, and 6 earned runs in his last three outings. I know Mize has been shaky, but we will not trust this Arizona lineup right now. Take the Tigers again.
