The Colorado Rockies have lost 5 of their last 6 games, including their last 4-games straight. Tonight, they begin a series with the Detroit Tigers on the road and hope to snap their losing streak. The Tigers have not been that great either. They are just 4-5 in the month of September.

The Rockies are in dead last of the National League and have little to play for going forward. They will start Mason Adams to open this series with the Tigers. This will be just his 4th start of his career. That said, he has pitch well in his 3 starts to this point. He has allowed a total of 6 runs over those 3 starts and struck out 17 batters. The Rockies hope he can help turn things around here.

Framer Valdez will draw the start for the Detroit Tigers in this one. Valdez is coming off a tremendous start against the Cleveland Guardians where he went 7 innings of scoreless work. He gave up just 3 hits and picked up his 9th win of the season. The Tigers will need Valdez to go deep in this one as they are just 19th in the league in total runs scored. Without a lower scoring game, they will likely struggle to keep pace with the Rockies.

Our Detroit Tigers vs Colorado Rockies Prediction

The Tigers are strong favorites in this game. We believe that lends itself to the under. The Rockies strong suit is their ability to put up runs, so if the Tigers are going to win, it should be in a lower scoring contest. We like Valdez coming off his strong outing in his last start and expect Adams to continue his solid work for the Rockies.

Our prediction for Detroit Tigers vs Colorado Rockies: Under 8.5
