Detroit Tigers vs. Arizona Diamondbacks preview
The slumping Tigers, losers of 12 of their last 13 contests, hope to halt their alarming free-fall when they host the Diamondbacks in Monday's series opener at Comerica Park.
Detroit's Casey Mize (9-4, 3.40 ERA) squares off against Arizona's Eduardo Rodriguez (3-6, 5.50 ERA) in a compelling pitching matchup that pits a rising right-hander against a veteran southpaw who just delivered 6.1 scoreless innings against Houston.
The Tigers' once-potent offense has vanished during their six-game losing streak, failing to score more than four runs in any of their last four outings despite Riley Greene's All-Star caliber production.
Arizona's power-packed lineup features MLB RBI leader Eugenio Suarez (87 RBIs) and the dynamic Ketel Marte, who's contributed 20 homers while batting .284 from the leadoff spot.
Though sitting fourth in the NL West and five games out of the final Wild Card position, the Diamondbacks could find opportunity against a Tigers team desperately searching for answers.
This interleague clash presents a fascinating contrast—a Detroit squad trying to preserve its seven-game AL Central lead versus an Arizona team looking to capitalize on the Tigers' vulnerability and inch closer in the playoff race.
