This is a 10* BIG TIGER on the Detroit Tigers.

Great price on the superior starter. The visitors turn to the erratic Hisashi Iwakuma (6-5, 4.18 ERA) who has looked brilliant at times this year and very pedestrian in others. Iwakuma most recently gave up four runs off nine hits and a walk over seven innings in Friday's 8-4 win over the Red Sox. The Japanese hurler's strikeouts are way down, just 23 in his last 35 innings of work and he's giving up the long ball with a career-high 1.39 HR/9 ratio. The home side counters with Michael Fulmer (7-2, 2.43) who comes in off an unfortunate loss to Kansas City on Friday, going six innings and allowing just one run off five scattered hits to go along with five K's. Fulmer's 8.7 K/9 ratio, along with his 94.7 MPH fastball make him one of the most touted prospects in the league right now. We like the home side to build off yesterday's 4-2 victory and for Fulmer to outduel his inconsistent counterpart, play on the TIGERS.
