Detroit vs Philadelphia Probable Pitchers
In his first foray into the big leagues, Detroit’s Joey Wentz acquitted himself quite nicely in in seven starts last year, going 2-2 with a 3.03 ERA. At 25-years old, he landed a full time job with the Tigers out of Spring Training this campaign, but the wheels have fallen off quite dramatically.
Through 11 starts this season, the southpaw has a 1-5 record and an ugly 7.28 ERA as opponents have hit over .300 for the year off of him with an .882 OPS.
With a litany of injuries in their starting rotation, it looks like Detroit has no choice, but to stick with Wentz. They’re hoping he can perform more like he did in his last outing, where he allowed just a single earned run despit not making it through five full innings.
Wentz vs Nola Stats
Joey Wentz

Aaron Nola
| 1-5 | Record | 4-4 |
| 7.28 | ERA | 4.70 |
| 1.68 | WHIP | 1.13 |
| .312 | OBA | .237 |
| 2.4 | SO/W Ratio | 3.6 |
In the last year of a five year contract, Aaron Nola has a long way to go in order to command the big pay day he’ll be yearning for as a 30-year old free agent in the off season.
Inconsistency has plagued the right-hander this year after leading the league with a phenomenal 8.1 strikeout to walk ratio last season, although that didn’t translate to a winning record.
Nowhere to be seen in the Cy Young odds at this point, Nola has been impressive at home recently, tossing 20 innings and allowing just seven earned runs in his last three starts at Citizens Bank Park.

Power Outage for Tigers
While Detroit has met or surpassed expectations up to this point, they are the fourth worst road team in the American League in the MLB odds so far, with just 12 victories in 30 games as visitors.
While their starting rotation is decimated, they have no excuse for owning one of the worst MLB lineups, ranking amongst the bottom five teams in runs per nine innings, team batting average and home runs.
That power outage has really come to the forefront of late, as Detroit scored just three runs on the South Side of Chicago on the weekend, suffering a three game sweep to the White Sox.
Tigers vs Phillies Prediction
For some, it might feel like ages ago that the Phillies were facing Houston in the Fall Classic, but that was just over seven months ago, and Philly is looking to get that swagger back.
Their World Series odds have faded from +1600 at the start of the season to +3000 currently, and the way to climb back into contention is to begin beating the teams they’re supposed to.
Following two victories over the Nationals on the weekend, our prediction is that Philadelphia does some damage to an impotent Detroit lineup in the series opener, so take the Phillies to win easily on Monday.
Pick: Philadelphia Phillies -1.5 (-115)
