Angels at Tigers
(MLB) Angels (LAA) vs. Tigers (DET),
Point Spread: -1.50 | 128.00 Tigers (DET) (Home)
Result: Win
Don't get mad at the Tigers for bullying the Chisox... the Pale Hose were on the schedule, so Detroit simply took advantage over the weekend while winning four in a row. That also means 11 wins in 14 games that have put Detroit back at .500 and still with a pulse (however faint) of an AL playoff berth. Meanwhile, the Angels are in steep decline, losers in five straight and 11 of 13, with the offense having screeched to a halt stalled and almost no-hit on Saturday vs. the Blue Jays' Bowden Francis. Tuesday, after four appearances with decent numbers (3.57 ERA and 0.79 WHIP), Tigers rookie Brant Hurter gets his first-ever MLB start on Tuesday. As for the Angels, they're o desperate for help that they have pulled 38-year-old Johnny Cueto off of the scrap heap to give him one more chance in the bigs, though his offense provided him no runs last week (a familiar tune for this team of late) in his Halos debut at Kansas City,.
