Our San Francisco Giants vs Detroit Tigers Prediction
The Tigers are the slight favorite in this game; however, they still look to be the best betting option. Even with Jobe making his season debut, the Giants are too inconsistent to trust. As for Roupp, he has made nine home starts this season, in which he has allowed 27 runs (23 earned) over 48.2 innings.
The Tigers may have traded away Tarik Skubal, but are still fighting for a Wild-Card spot in the American League. The Giants, on the other hand, have been terrible all season, and because that is unlikely to change anytime soon, our San Francisco Giants vs Detroit Tigers prediction is: Detroit Tigers ML.
