New York Yankees vs Detroit Tigers Predictions 4/19/2022
Despite their offensive struggles, the Tigers were able to claim the series against AL Central foe Kansas City thanks to a pitching staff that only allowed five runs in 3 matches, with the intended conclusion on Sunday being rained out.
That wasn’t sufficient on Saturday, when Detroit’s lone run came in the 2nd inning on a Dustin Garneau RBI double, tying the game until the sixth inning, when Kansas City’s Hunter Dozier blasted the game-winning home run.
Matt Manning only lasted two innings due to shoulder pain, surrendering one run on 5 hits while striking out two batters. Will Vest was given the defeat after giving up 2 runs in one inning of work. Detroit’s offense, which stranded eight runners, was led by Robbie Grossman, who reached base three times.
The Tigers started the season with a 4-5 record on the money line and a 4-5 record on the run line. The Tigers have a 3-6 over/under record, with their previous three matches finishing under the betting total.
- The total went UNDER in 5 of Detroit’s previous 6 matches.
- The total went UNDER in 4 of the Tigers’ last 5 matches against the NY Yankees.
- The Detroit Tigers are 1-4 SU in their previous 5 matches at home.
New York Yankees vs Detroit Tigers. The MLB pick for this game is the Detroit Tigers. There are certainly valid worries about this Yankees club that will likely remain throughout the season, and they are being overpriced in the wake of their disastrous season in Baltimore.
With Cole appearing shaky so far and the Tigers getting superb pitching from top to bottom, Detroit is worth a longshot bet given the odds. Alexander improved throughout the year in 2021, and with a 3.38 ERA, he was actually more productive as a starter.
While he will only throw a couple of times through the lineup, the Tigers are in the top ten in bullpen ERA, with just about everyone throwing effectively right away.
With their recent problems at the plate, the Yankees should not be such a strong favorite, and Detroit has a good chance of pulling off the huge shock. The Detroit Tigers will win to a predicted score of 5-4.
