Detroit at Tampa Bay 6:50 ET
Tigers over Rays- Tigers manager A.J. Hinch watched his team limp to a 2-9 start in 2023, but Detroit re-gathered itself to finish second in the division to the Minnesota Twins. Now through 22 games, the Tigers are playing winning baseball by sitting two games above .500.On Monday, Hinch will look to left-hander Tarik Skubal (2-0, 2.28 ERA) to continue his stellar work on the mound in his fifth start. In a small sample of three career starts vs. the Rays, Skubal has a 1-0 record and a 1.59 ERA. Cash will turn over Monday's mound duties to right-hander Zack Littell (1-0, 2.14 ERA), who also will be in his fifth outing. Littell has made five appearances against Detroit but just one start. Overall, he is 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA in 10 innings, allowing just six hits and two walks to go with three strikeouts. But, with the Tigers favored on the road...take DETROIT!
