Milwaukee Brewers vs. Detroit Tigers - Kyle Harrison vs. Keider Montero (6:40 PM, EST)

With Detroit underwhelming in their efforts of scoring, expect the Tigers to be held out of scoring position in the first inning with Kyle Harrison neutralizing them at the plate.

Under 0.5 Run (-120) at BetMGM Sportsbook

After making a run in the playoffs last year, the Detroit Tigers offense have harshly regressed, starting the season ranked below league average in Runs Scored, RBIs, and in OPS. Their inability to advance their runners makes them vulnerable to prolonged scoring lulls, forcing them to play in highly volatile contests.

Unfortunately for the Tigers, their struggles on offense will be on full display against the Milwaukee Brewers, battling it out against Kyle Harrison who is currently averaging an ERA of 3.07 and a WHIP of 1.091. Especially with Harrison generating Whiffs at a very high rate, averaging less than one Hit Against and more than one Strikeout per Inning Pitched.

In an attempt to replicate Harrison’s production, the Tigers are expected to give Keider Montero the nod on Tuesday night, a surgical arm who averages a WHIP of 0.857 and a FIP of 1.66. With the Brewers ranking in the bottom ten in Contact Rate, expect Montero to make quick work of their top of the order while painting the strike zone and exit the first inning without conceding a Run.

Los Angeles Dodgers vs. San Francisco Giants - Yoshinobu Yamamoto vs. Landen Roupp (9:45 PM, EST)

Expect the Los Angeles Dodgers to struggle to get out of the gate when they face off against Landen Roupp who averages less than one runner on base per inning.

Under 0.5 Run (-145) at BetMGM Sportsbook

After winning the World Series last year, the Los Angeles Dodgers have been able to carry over their success, comfortably leading the field at the top of the oddsboard to win it all again this season. Their high powered offense has played a major role in their hot start, ranking in the top-5 in Hit Rate, On Base Percentage, and in Runs Scored. Given their dominant rotation and star-studded lineup, it is no surprise that they remain the clear favorites in the latest World Series odds.

Heading into Tuesday night, expect the Dodgers to fall hard back down to reality as they face off against the San Francisco Giants Landen Roupp who is currently averaging an ERA of 2.38 and a WHIP of 0.971. With the Giants back end also excelling in coverage per their top-15 mark in Fielding Percentage, the width of the Dodgers gaps in the outfield will narrow, lowering their chances of generating a Hit.

Battling it out against the Giants is Yoshinobu Yamamoto, a viable contender for the NL Cy Young award who is averaging a WHIP of 0.818 and less than one Hit Allowed per inning. With the Giants hovering near the bottom of the board in On Base Percentage and in Walk Rate, expect Yamamoto to exploit their struggles with getting on base by avoiding contact and keep a clean sheet in the first inning. His dominant start to the season has already made a significant impact on the NL Cy Young odds, positioning him as a co-favorite alongside Paul Skenes.
