Prediction published on 9/21/25, 9:36 AM  by Lou Aguila | Modified on 9/22/25 at 9:39 AM in MLB Picks

The Atlanta Braves will attempt to sweep the Detroit Tigers in Sunday’s series finale at Comerica Park.

The Braves, who extended their winning streak to seven games following a 6-5 comeback win on Saturday, are +104 road underdogs to the Tigers.

Current Form:

The Braves (72-83) will now enter the final full week of the MLB regular season as the hottest team in baseball, winning their last seven games – including back-to-back wins over Detroit. Unfortunately, this hot run came just a little bit too late as Atlanta is now officially eliminated from the wild-card race.

The Tigers (85-71) suddenly found themselves on the ropes. Detroit entered September with a sizable lead over Cleveland in the AL Central standings. However, Detroit has gone 5-11 in the final month of the regular season, opening the door for the Guardians (84-70) to narrow the gap to only one game.

Stats Over the Last Five Games:

The Braves have averaged 7.0 runs per game on a .294 BA and commanded a 2.54 ERA in their last five games. The Tigers’ regular-season ERA jumps to 3.99 after they have pitched to a 5.67 ERA in the last five games. Detroit’s offensive numbers have also plummeted in this five-game stretch, as they have averaged a measly 2.2 runs per game.

Pitchers Matchup:

Braves RHP Spencer Strider (6-13, 4.64 ERA) vs. Tigers RHP Casey Mize (14-5, 3.88 ERA)
