Taken on HardRock This is for the 1st game with Skubal pitching for the Tigers Skubal is on the mound, and the Tigers are at home, where they are 25-11. They will face Heaney and the Pirates, who are an abysmal 10-26 on the road this year. Heaney is 3-5 with a 3.33 ERA this season, and being a LHP only feeds into this matchup. The Tigers hold the best average vs LHP this season, batting .272 as a lineup. The Tigers also have the 4th most hits, 4th most HRs, and the 2nd most extra base hits vs LHP this season. On the mound, Skubal draws a great matchup vs a PIT team that ranks bottom 5 in most hitting metrics and ranks top 3 in K% this season vs LHP. As long as Skubal gets the run support, which he usually does, going 7-2 this year with the Tigers covering the spread in 6 of his 7 wins. I'm backing the potential Cy Young winner at home today.
