Steve Merril's MLB Report (Monday, June 9)
Below is a free play in Monday’s night national TV game.
DETROIT -110 (Willis/Lee) – 7:05 pm ET (ESPN) #914
The Tigers are coming off back-to-back wins this weekend and look to win this four-game series tonight. Detroit fits a solid 61% momentum situation, and they have been fantastic this season versus left-handed pitchers, averaging 5.7 runs and batting .298 versus LHP, compared to just 4.6 runs and .251 versus RHP.
This success should continue as my pitcher performance ratings predict a below average outing for Cleveland’s Cliff Lee who has pitched well above his career numbers this season. It appears that correction has begun as Lee allowed 6 runs and 9 hits in just five innings his past start and has a terrible 6.11 ERA and 1.87 WHIP in his past three outings.
