New York Yankees vs. Detroit Tigers
Saturday, August 17, 2024 – 01:10 PM ET at Comerica Park
Yankees Pitching Profile
Carlos Rodon (13-7, 4.18 ERA, 1.22 WHIP) has won his last four starts and looked razor-sharp in his last effort when he shut out the Rangers over his 5.2 innings of work and allowed only three hits. Rodon has averaged 7.3 K’s over his last seven starts and is pitching as well as he has all season.
Tigers Pitching Profile
Rookie Keider Montero (3-5, 5.76 ERA, 1.35 WHIP) is on the hot seat for the Tigers after the Giants touched him for four runs on five hits over five full innings of work in a 5-4 loss in San Francisco.
This could be the end of the line for Montero if he doesn’t perform well as he has surrendered at least four runs in five of his last six starts.
The Pick
The Yankees have won 9 of their last 11 meetings against the Tigers and this Saturday afternoon matchup bodes well for the Bombers to keep that streak alive. Carlos Rodon should dominate against an impotent offense like the Tigers. Let’s lay it on the run line with the Pinstripers and cash a ticket.
Predicted Score: Yankees 5 – Tigers 1
MLB Pick: Yankees -1½ (-115) at BetOnline (visit our BetOnline Review)
