Detroit is playing hard nose D - and they can get around the bases with the best of the teams in the Central. 26yr old Nicholas Castellanos has been outstanding in RF - with a .310 avg - and he will not stop with his impressive skills in this game. Kansas City can't score very well - with a proven 30th ranked runs/game, as they have struggled far too much to put up games of 2+runs. These two pitchers have actually faced each other earlier this year, and we like the Tigers to come out on top with the better pitcher today in Fiers. Remember, Mike Fiers comes off a 0-6 loss to Baltimore in his last game and he has pitched 3 of 4 quality starts. As he comes off a loss and with the Tigers team with a much more consistent offense this year than the Royals, KC starter Skoglund had given up 14 runs in 15 innings and 18 hits with 5 walks (23 baserunners in 15 innings), so look for the Tigers who are 10th in the league in batting average whereas the Royals are awful. Lastly Royals are 3-13 in their last 16 home games
