The Detroit Tigers will go for a sweep in Saturday’s series finale against the Kansas City Royals at Comerica Park.

After letting up 10 runs in the last two games vs. the Brewers, the Tigers’ pitching staff has been able to regain their mojo back in the past two days, stifling the Royals with quality stints from their starters and bullpen. Detroit’s offense has also found their groove back with 13 runs between Game 1 and 2.

The Royals have lost their last five games and seven of their last eight. Kansas City still maintains solid ERA of 3.68 despite their recent skid but their offense has been absolutely horrendous, especially in the past five games, during which they have batted .180 with 2.0 runs per game.

Our Detroit Tigers vs Kansas City Royals Prediction

Fearless Forecast: Tigers will get the sweep behind their resurging offense.

Pitchers Matchup: Mize (4-1, 3.42 ERA in the last 5 Games) is eager to return on the mound after letting four earned runs vs. the Minnesota Twins. He will duel with Royals’ starter Seth Logo (2-3, 3.81 ERA in the last 5 Games), who also came off a bad start (4 earned runs in 6.1 innings) against the New York Yankees.

Mize could bomb out again on Saturday, but I am still confident the Tigers will get both the straight-up and against-the-spread win because of my strong belief that they can outscore the Royals’ anemic offense. Detroit is also 7-1 SU in its last 8 games at home and 7-1 against the spread in its last eight games. Our betting prediction for Kansas City Royals vs. Detroit Tigers: Tigers will win.

Prediction:

 

Tigers will win
