Tigers vs Rockies Prediction

I’m not excited to get involved in this game and will be looking at the over if forced to play. Hughes is a struggling rookie with a 5.81 ERA and 1.38 WHIP, while Jobe has a 4.45 ERA and 1.41 WHIP. Two pitchers in awful form with small sample sizes. I expect offense. Give me the over.
