Detroit at Chicago

The Detroit Tigers were supposed to be a blur and lockdown the weak AL Central with relative ease. That certainly has not been the case as the Tigers, now 34 games into the season, are a pedestrian .500 team. When you consider the fact that they started 9-3 and looked to be on their way, they have been in an elongated slump leaving them at 8-14 in their last 22 games. Drew Smyly has pitched very well, but he has seen a pair of his starts blown up by the pen turning both into team losses. The Tigers have been really struggling to put a couple good games together and are now 0-8 after a win in their last eight. The White Sox are getting good work from Danks with a low total from 7-8.5 as he has pitched them to a 13-6 mark in his last 19, including 7-3 at home. Play on Chicago.
