The Detroit Tigers take on the Tampa Bay Rays to finish off a three game set. The Tigers will be going for a sweep by sending Jack Flaherty to the mound while the Rays will counter with Shawn Armstrong. Jack Flaherty is 0-1 this season with a 4.44 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP in 24.1 innings. He has walked four and struck out 30 batters this season. Shawn Armstrong has pitched in eight games, with two starts. He is 0-1 with a 4.09 ERA, a 1.18 WHIP and one save in 11.0 innings of work. This will be a bullpen game for the Rays and that may not be a good thing. Detroit has the best bullpen in baseball with a 1.83 reliever ERA while Tampa Bay is 28th with a 5.38 bullpen ERA. Jack Flaherty has a 2.25 road ERA and a .178 opposing batting average in his two road games. Neither team has been strong at the plate but Detroit has been more consistent. In a game that should be close late, I am going with the better bullpen.

Play on Detroit. This is a 3% play.
