Detroit Tigers vs Baltimore Orioles Prediction
I’ll lean Tigers but I’m probably not touching it. Montero is coming off a stellar complete game with zero earned, three hits and no walks versus the Rockies. Prior to that however, Montero had eight earned runs in 9.1 innings. As for Povich, he’s coming off four earned in 4.2 innings versus Boston.
On Saturday the Tigers got five hits between Colt Keith and Spencer Torkelson. The rest of the team had two hits combined. There were a couple of rough pitching performances as well. All things considered I still like Detroit Sunday but I’m staying away.
