The Diamondbacks Can Win If…

The Arizona Diamondbacks are looking to bounce back after their recent 5-1 loss against the Detroit Tigers. Alek Thomas was a standout, hitting a home run and driving in the team’s only run. Despite the loss, the Diamondbacks managed seven hits, showing they can put the ball in play.

Arizona’s offense ranks 4th in slugging percentage at .438, which can help them score runs. Eugenio Suárez is a key player with 36 home runs, ranking 4th in the league. Ketel Marte is another important player, batting .288 with 20 home runs, making him a threat at the plate.

On the mound, Brandon Pfaadt will start for the Diamondbacks. He has a record of 10-6 with a WHIP of 1.26, showing he can control games. Arizona’s pitching staff has 44 quality starts, ranking 6th, which can keep them competitive throughout the game.

The Tigers Can Win If…

The Detroit Tigers enter their next game with confidence after a solid 5-1 win against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Troy Melton was outstanding on the mound, pitching seven scoreless innings with five strikeouts. Dillon Dingler and Andy Ibáñez contributed with home runs, showcasing the team’s power at the plate.

The Tigers’ offense has been consistent, with a team slugging percentage ranked 7th in the league at .414. Spencer Torkelson leads the team with 23 home runs, ranking 9th in the league. Their ability to hit for power gives them an edge in close games.

Detroit’s pitching staff has also been reliable, with a team ERA of 3.84, placing them 11th in the league. Casey Mize, the starting pitcher for the upcoming game, has a 3.40 ERA and a 9-4 record. With strong performances from both the offense and pitching, the Tigers have a good chance to secure another win.

The Lean

The Tigers are favored with a moneyline of -141 against the Diamondbacks at +119. The Tigers have a better pitching staff, ranking 11th in ERA compared to the Diamondbacks’ 25th. My model projects the Tigers to win 5-3, making them the pick for the moneyline.

The total for the game is set at 8.5, with the over at -115 and the under at -105. The Tigers’ pitching should limit the Diamondbacks’ offense, and both teams have solid pitching ranks. My model projects a total score of 8, so the recommendation is to take the under 8.5.

D-backs and Tigers Hold Their Breath on Eugenio Suarez’s Injury

A tense moment overshadowed Monday night’s opener between the Arizona Diamondbacks and Detroit Tigers, as all eyes turned to Eugenio Suarez after he was struck on the hand by a pitch in the ninth inning. While Detroit secured a 5-1 victory, the bigger question now hangs over Suarez’s health — and the impact it could have on the trade market.

Suarez, one of the league’s top home run hitters with 36 on the season, underwent X-rays following the hit-by-pitch. The initial scans came back negative, but further testing is scheduled for Tuesday to assess the damage more accurately.

“Right now, it’s painful, obviously. The good news is the X-ray was negative,” Suarez said. “We’ll see (Tuesday) what else they’re going to do. Right now, I will do my best to try to be back soon.”

The Tigers, meanwhile, are trying to regain momentum following a six-game losing streak. Monday’s win marked their second straight, and they’ll look to stretch that streak Tuesday behind All-Star right-hander Casey Mize (9-4, 3.40 ERA).

Mize is searching for redemption after back-to-back rough outings. He allowed six runs against Seattle before the break and gave up 10 hits and five runs (four earned) in just four innings at Pittsburgh in his most recent start.

“I just look at myself and what I can do better,” Mize said. “The role of the starting pitcher is so important, just setting the tone for the game.”

He was originally set to pitch Monday but was pushed back a day for precautionary rest due to minor knee tightness. This will be Mize’s first career start against the Diamondbacks.

Arizona will counter with Brandon Pfaadt (10-6, 4.76 ERA), who has quietly become one of the most reliable arms in their rotation. He’s posted three straight solid outings, including eight innings of two-run ball against San Diego and seven scoreless frames versus St. Louis. His last start saw him get into trouble in the sixth inning after five dominant innings against Houston.

“Ran into some trouble in the sixth, and (it) came back to bite us,” Pfaadt said following the loss to the Astros.

Detroit’s roster shuffle continued Monday with outfielder Parker Meadows landing on the injured list and the team acquiring Chris Paddack to fill a rotation gap caused by Reese Olson’s season-ending shoulder injury. On the bright side, Andy Ibanez—called up from Triple-A Toledo—delivered instant offense with a double and a home run.

“It crushed him to be sent down,” manager A.J. Hinch said of Ibanez. “But he went down, did his work and waited for the next opportunity.”

As both teams evaluate their futures—on the field and potentially in the trade market—fans and bettors can keep tabs on recent mlb game outcomes to gauge current team form and performance trends heading into this critical midweek matchup.
