Rickenbach MLB *8* OVER 9 runs in Detroit vs Tampa Bay @ 7:05 ET - The Tigers send Matt Boyd to the mound and the southpaw's struggles continue. An interesting stat about Boyd that shows just how bad he is struggling to fool hitters is this: Boyd is getting hit at a .417 clip (25 for 60) when he is AHEAD in the count. It's no wonder that the Tigers left-hander is getting rocked so often when you consider a stat like that. Dertroit is now 1-7 in Boyd's 8 starts this season and he's compiled an 8.36 ERA on the year. Boyd has a 1-5 record and has allowed 12 homers in his 8 starts this season even though he's averaging less than 5 innings per start. Boyd will be opposed by the Rays Erasmo Ramirez in this one. He's another struggling hurler. Ramirez has given up 4 homers in his last 3 starts and this has certainly been a factor in the Rays right-hander compiling a 5.87 ERA and a 1.63 WHIP over his last three outings. In his 12 road starts for Tampa Bay this season, only 4 have resulted in unders. The over is 12-4 this season in Tigers games where they are a home dog in a price range between +100 and +125. The over is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings between these clubs at Comerica Park. Only 2 of the Tigers past 9 games have stayed under the total. The overs is 10-4-1 in Tampa Bay's last 15 games. Play OVER 9 runs in Detroit as an *8* selection Tuesday.
