After dropping three of four to the Marlins at home, the New York Mets will look to turn things back around as they start a ten-game road trip with a three-day stop in Detroit to face the Tigers. The action is scheduled to get started early at 1:10 p.m. EST. Fans can catch the game on the MLB Network.
Detroit is probably as happy to head home as the Mets are to be on the road. The Tigers went 2-4 on their recent six-game road trip that included getting swept by the A’s in Sacramento. They were, however, able to end on a high note with a 5-0 win over the Royals for the series win. Sean Manaea will get the nod from the Mets to start. Manaea has a 1-2 record in eight starts (9 appearances) with a 5.01 ERA, 1.14 WHIP, and .242 OBA. He’s gone 0-2 on the road in three starts (four appearances) with a 5.29 ERA and a .254 OBA. Charlie Morton is scheduled to start for the Tigers. Since being acquired by the Tigers, Morton has gone 2-2 in five starts with a 4.61 ERA. He gave up just two runs in his last home start (Aug. 20, vs. Houston).

Our New York Mets vs Detroit Tigers Prediction
The Mets have one of the hottest lineups in baseball right now, having hit .317 over the last week while recording 57 runs (seven games). Detroit’s lineup has not been nearly as potent, hitting .232 over the last week and scoring 20 runs (six games). However, the Tigers' lineup could certainly come alive against Manaea while the Mets beat up Charlie Morton. I’d lean towards picking the Mets to win, but, in this case, the TOTAL is a better bet.
