Martin locked in Detroit as his best bet, advising either a moneyline play up to ‑150 or the run-line if the price is steeper. Tarik Skubal—former Cy Young winner—is dealing with a sub-2.50 ERA/FIP and a pristine 40:5 K:BB ratio, and he draws an Angels offense that has crossed the plate only 41 times in its last 17 contests while riding a five-game skid. Jose Soriano, a pitcher Martin backed early in April, has fallen apart lately (8 IP, 13 H, 9 ER, 5 BB over his last two starts versus Minnesota and Pittsburgh). The Tigers bring a +40 run differential and a top-10 lineup against right-handers, plus a sizeable bullpen edge. Martin expects Skubal to dominate and Detroit to add to the Angels’ misery.
