Tigers vs Rockies Prediction

Valdez has gotten his act together over the last month or so, allowing 16 earned runs in his last 44.1 innings. He’s still been hit or miss overall this season, but he’s been sharper lately. The Rockies stink, and that’s all there is to say about that, folks. There are better games on the card, but I’ll roll with the Tigers and the RL for max betting value if forced to pick this contest.
