The Boston Red Sox arrive in Detroit riding a streak of notable wins but struggling with consistency, as evidenced by their recent 5-5 record. Despite an expected record indicating better performance, they face a formidable Tigers team led by Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal. The Tigers' pitching has excelled, and Boston's hitters like Spencer Torkelson and Riley Greene show promise. The Red Sox need to capitalize on opportunities, especially with the absence of Tigers pitcher Casey Mize, to improve their standing in the AL.
It's hard to believe the Tigers were sellers at the deadline in 2024 and went on a run that has essentially continued into the next season.
Boston needs to pick up every win to stick above .500 for a bit, making the absence of Casey Mize a big break for them.
