The Los Angeles Angels and Detroit Tigers are set for a Tuesday night showdown at Comerica Park in the Motor City. Keider Montero is set to take the mound for the Tigers, and while he hasn’t been other-worldly this season, he’s been fairly reliable. The 25-year-old right-hander is holding his opponents to a modest .201 batting average to go along with a .625 OPS, and he’s allowed just 14 hits over 22.1 innings of work in May. He will face a Los Angeles lineup that is playing its first road game since May 13. The Angels are coming off an extended 10-game home stand, and it will be interesting to see how the change of scenery impacts the LA lineup offensively.

The Angels will send right-hander Jack Kochanowicz to the mound. Kochanowicz enters this matchup with a 4.55 ERA on the season and a less-than-ideal 6.85 ERA through 5 starts in May, but he could still find some success in this one. The Detroit offense has been seriously lacking in recent weeks, and they enter Tuesday’s matchup dead last in baseball with a team OPS of .592 in May. Detroit has struggled to find any sort of consistent offense lately, and they don’t hit a ton of home runs. Add in the fact that both teams have rested bullpens after having Monday off, and this has the makings of a low-scoring affair.

The Atlanta Braves and Boston Red Sox will be kicking off a 3-game series in Boston on Tuesday night. Both the Braves and Red Sox come into this game riding losing streaks of 2 and 3 games, respectively. We have an elite pitching matchup on our hands on Tuesday. Spencer Strider of the Braves will be taking on Rangers Suarez of the Red Sox. Strider is a strikeout machine, while Suarez has only given up one earned run in his last four starts. He has not been pitching too deep into ball games lately, with the longest outing of his last three being 5.1 innings. This could be an advantage for the Braves who tend to drive up the pitch count for opposing pitchers with their sound approach at the plate. The Braves are the second-best offensive team in the league, averaging 5.2 runs per game. The Red Sox are near the bottom of the league in this category, only averaging 3.7 runs per game, which is second-worst in the MLB.

There is no question the Braves are a much better team, and as slight favorites, I believe there is some value there. Give me the Braves in this one.

The Mariners snapped a 2-game losing streak on Monday in a 9-2 win over their division rivals in the Athletics. Seattle punished Aaron Civale, who gave up 7 earned runs on 9 hits and 3 home runs in 4 innings, while Luis Castillo threw 4 scoreless innings for the Mariners that included 6 strikeouts along with just 2 walks and 2 hits. The loss marked the Athletics’ 3rd in 4 games and Seattle’s 3rd win in 5 attempts.

Tuesday’s pitching matchup pits Emerson Hancock and Luis Severino. Hancock has been the better pitcher, carrying a 3-2 record with a 3.07 ER and 1.06 WHIP. Meanwhile, Severino is 2-5 with a 4.23 ERA and 1.44 WHIP. Both pitchers have solid strikeout upside, but Severino has more of a walk problem. Furthermore, Severino’s home splits are not ideal. The right-hander is 1-2 in 4 home starts at that minor-league park in Sacramento with a 5.55 ERA that includes 15 earned runs and 6 home runs allowed on 25 hits in 24.1 innings. Hancock has similar struggles on the road compared to his home starts, but nowhere near as dramatic a difference as Severino’s home-road splits. That said, Hancock allowed 5 runs on 5 hits in Chicago against the White Sox earlier this month.

As far as bullpens go, Seattle has a decent edge with a 3.17 ERA compared to the Athletics at 4.31, along with 36 fewer runs, 7 fewer home runs and 24 fewer walks. While this game projects to be high-scoring, I would rather take the Mariners at a cheap price considering their pitching advantage and Severino’s struggles at home.
