The Tigers turn to Reese Olson to make his 4th start of the year. He has thrown well but has run into a lack of run support in his 4 starts. He did get hit around against PIT 2 starts back but was solid against TEX & NYM in the other 2 starts. He bounced back from the tough PIT start while giving up only 1 earned run and striking out 8 against TEX last time out. Now he faces one of the weakest MLB lineups so should show a similar form that we saw against TEX.
Bailey Ober gets the ball for the Twins here and he did throw a solid game against DET last time out, but now they get another turn against him just 6 days later. Pitchers tend to do better with a lack of experience against a lineup and the batters get better and better the more they face a pitcher.
