Prediction: Chicago Cubs VS Detroit Tigers 2025-06-06
The Detroit Tigers, with their impressive 3.20 team ERA, are looking to take down the Chicago Cubs at home. Tarik Skubal, with his 2.26 ERA, is a force to be reckoned with on the mound. Meanwhile, the Cubs are hoping Ben Brown can lead them to victory.
Spencer Torkelson, with 14 home runs and 42 RBIs, is a key player to watch for the Tigers. On the other hand, Kyle Tucker's .283 batting average and 12 home runs make him a formidable opponent for the Cubs.
Given the stats, my best bet for this matchup is the Detroit Tigers on the moneyline. With a 28-13 record when favored, they have a significant advantage over the Cubs. The current odds of 1.51 (according to FanDuel) make it a relatively safe bet, considering the Tigers' strong performance this season.
As for the spread, I'd recommend taking the Tigers -1.5, with odds of 2.15 (according to BetMGM). Skubal's impressive ERA and the Tigers' overall team performance make it likely they'll win by more than one run.
The over/under is set at 7.0, with the under having odds of 1.95 (according to Caesars). Considering the Tigers' strong pitching and the Cubs' relatively modest batting average, I'd lean towards the under.
In summary, my predictions are:
* Detroit Tigers on the moneyline (1.51)
* Detroit Tigers -1.5 (2.15)
* Under 7.0 (1.95)
Let's see if the Tigers can take down the Cubs and make these predictions a reality!
