A pair of underrated starters versus two below average offenses puts me on the Under.
Detroit starter Tarik Skubal has given up two earned runs or fewer in four of his last five starts. He has a 3.44 day time ERA and ranks 15th in the American League in strikeouts. He faces a Pirates squad that is the lowest-scoring team in the majors.
The Pirates are going with Bryse Wilson, who displayed potential when he was with the Braves. I like Wilson. He doesn't have good numbers so far - 0-3 with a 4.32 ERA in five starts with the Pirates - but I believe he can keep the Tigers in check. Detroit ranks 19th in runs scored.
