Tips and predictions for the game Rockies vs Tigers

forecast

Tigers 4, Rockies 3

Money line

HAPPEN.

The Tigers (-250) are way too big a favorite to play here, especially considering the Rockies have a solid option on the mound. The Rockies (+200) aren't worth betting on as underdogs either.

Running Line/Against the Spread

Bet on Rockies +1.5 (-105).

The Rockies have been playing well lately and are 3-3 ATS in their last 6 games. Feltner has only started 3 games since mid-August, but the Rockies have won all 3.

While the Tigers have been nearly unbeatable with Skubal on the mound (19-9), they are just 1-3 ATS in his last 4 starts, so the games have been consistently close in his starts. Four of the Tigers' last 7 games have ended with just one run.

Take ROCKIES +1.5 (-105).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 7.5 (-110).

The Tigers and Rockies both have strong starting pitchers. The Tigers are 5-5 O/U in their last 10 games and have allowed just 6 runs in their last 4 games.

The Rockies are 2-7 O/U in their last 9 games, scoring 4 or fewer points in all 9 games and 2 or fewer in 5 of them. This season they are 71-72-3 O/U. Take UNDER 7.5 (-110).
