The Rays hit parade rolls into Detroit to take on the Tigers in a three game, weekend series. The Tigers come in with a disappointing 19-21 record after making two big additions in the offseason in Jordan Zimmermann and Justin Upton. The Rays will look to continue their three game winning streak that has seen the team improve to 19-19.
The Matchups:
Friday: Matt Andriese vs Anibal Sanchez
Saturday: Drew Smyly vs Michael Fulmer
Sunday: Chris Archer vs Jordan Zimmermann
Where did all the aces go?
Once upon a time, the Tigers would combine their usual stock of elite hitters with elite pitchers, as we've seen with Max Scherzer, David Price, and Justin Verlander leading the team.
