The Tigers were glad to catch the first flight out of LAX after getting swept three by the Dodgers, games in which Detroit at one time held the lead in each. A day off on Sunday to clear the cobwebs might be just what the doctor ordered, and now it's the for the MLB starting debut of touted Jackson Jobe, who offered a brief sneak preview late last season when appearing in a few games, including twice in the postseason (though not too successfully) vs. Houston and Cleveland. He'll face Seattle batters that managed all of three runs in four games against A's starting pitchers before doing a bit (bit not much) more damage vs. the Athletics bullpen while splitting the four-game opening weekend set. At the back of Seattle's rotation, expectations for Emerson Hancock are decidedly modest. Play Tigers on Money Line
