The Detroit Tigers and Los Angeles Dodgers meet Saturday in MLB action at the Dodger Stadium. Here’s a Dodgers vs Tigers Prediction. This article will include a Dodgers vs Tigers Pick.

Detroit Tigers Betting Preview

The Detroit Tigers play the Mariners, White Sox, and Yankees next. The Tigers are coming off a rough loss last night where they were walked off in the 10th inning. A disappointing effort for the Tigers, who have allowed 13 runs through two games, and they now hope to avoid their second 0-3 start in the last three seasons. The good news is the Tigers have had success at the plate, which includes a .260 batting average and three homers. Riley Greene leads the Tigers with three hits, while Gleyber Torres and Spencer Torkelson have combined for six hits and two RBIs.



Reese Olson gets the ball for the Tigers, and he was 4-8 with a 3.53 ERA and 101 strikeouts last season. This will be Olson’s second career game against the Dodgers.

Los Angeles Dodgers Betting Preview

The Los Angeles Dodgers will play the Braves, Phillies, and Nationals next. The Dodgers were the favorites to win the World Series before the season, and they’re off to a 4-0 start. The Dodgers have wasted no time, and they’ve been getting it done with their pitching and offense. It’s still extremely early in the season, but the Dodgers look like they’re going to be a tough out yet again. Shohei Ohtani leads the Dodgers with six hits and two RBI, while Mookie Betts and Tommy Edman have combined for eight hits and seven RBI.

Roki Sasaki gets the ball for the Dodgers, and he is 0-0 with a 3.00 ERA and three strikeouts this season. This will be Sasaki’s first career game against the Tigers.

Why the Los Angeles Dodgers will win

  • The Dodgers have won each of their last nine games at Dodger Stadium after going to extra innings.
  • The Tigers have lost each of their last four games.
  • The Dodgers have covered the run line in each of their last seven home games after going to extra innings.
  • The Tigers have failed to cover the run line in three of their last four road games against National League opponents after playing the previous day.
  • The Tigers have lost the first inning in three of their last four night games against opponents that held a winning record.
  • The Dodgers have led after 5 innings in 12 of their last 13 Saturday night games as home favorites.
  • The Dodgers have led after 3 innings in three of their last four night games against opponents that held a losing record.

Why the Detroit Tigers will win

  • The Tigers have won each of their last four games as road underdogs following an extra-innings loss.
  • The Dodgers have lost three of their last four Saturday games as favorites against AL Central opponents.
  • The Tigers have covered the run line in nine of their last 10 night games following a road loss.
  • The Dodgers have failed to cover the run line in four of their last five games against the Tigers following a win.
  • The Tigers have led after 5 innings in each of their last four night games against the Dodgers.
  • The Tigers have led after 3 innings in nine of their last 10 night games against National League opponents.

Dodgers vs Tigers Prediction

Reese Olson was sharp last season, and he’ll give the Tigers a chance to win this game. Roki Sasaki is also making just his second career start and his first in the US, so who knows what to expect. It makes the plus money worth a look. The problem is, the Dodgers are firing on all cylinders out of the gate, and it’s hard to step in front of them when they’re in these grooves.

The Dodgers just find ways to win more times than not, and the offense is showing up consistently. Wins like last night also only add to the confidence in that clubhouse. I’m not trying to step in front of the Dodgers right now, and I’ll lay the RL to shave down the juice.
