📈 13-3 (81.3%) last 4 days Follow @PicksOffice on X. Mize vs Lugo looks like a pitcher’s duel – don’t be fooled. Lugo’s back from a sprained finger (missed 2 weeks), grip still a question mark. Tigers tagged him for a 3-run HR in April. Torkelson rakes off him – .879 OPS in 11 ABs. Early fireworks possible if Lugo’s rusty. Mize strong overall (2.45 ERA) but not bulletproof on the road. Royals lineup hot – Maikel Garcia on a 13-game hit streak (.380 avg), Jonathan India went 3-4 vs Mize in April, Bobby Witt Jr. always a longball threat. KC can score if Mize leaves anything over the plate. Over hitting for DET road games – 11-4-1 last 16. Tigers offense travels well: Riley Greene (12 HR, 38 RBI), potential slugger surge. Even with solid pens (DET 2.82, KC 2.58 ERA), early exits could expose soft middle relief.
