I like the Tigers to keep rolling in this one, as they are still fighting for a wild card spot and have won six straight. Montero has been excellent this season with a 3.55 ERA and 1.03 WHIP and he is the far safer option on the mound than Max Scherzer, who has a 2-6 record and 6.23 home ERA. Detroit’s offense has been scorching-hot and I like them as road dogs in this spot. Take the Tigers to win.
