After yesterday's series opener was postponed for rain, the Detroit Tigers (22–13) and Colorado Rockies (6–28) will try again to open their three-game set tonight at Coors Field. First pitch is scheduled for 8:40 p.m. EST.

The Tigers enter having won four of their last five games, including a 13–1 rout of the Angels on Sunday. Detroit's offense has been purring during the stretch, averaging more than eight runs per game. First baseman Spencer Torkelson leads the team with 10 home runs and 27 RBIs, while left fielder Kerry Carpenter boasts a .295 batting average and a .554 slugging percentage.

Detroit will send rookie right-hander Jackson Jobe (2–0, 3.38 ERA) to the mound. Jobe has been solid in his first few outings but has reached the sixth inning only once in four starts.

The Rockies, meanwhile, have lost three straight and own the worst record in the majors. They'll counter with rookie right-hander Chase Dollander (2–3, 6.48 ERA), who gave up one run in 5.2 innings in his last time out. 

The teams will play a doubleheader tomorrow starting at 3:10 p.m. EST, with the second game starting about 30 minutes after the end of the first.

Tigers vs Rockies Predictions and Picks

"Detroit comes into this series as one of the top teams in the MLB so far this year, but they are just 9-10 on the road. Detroit just dominated the Angels in three of the four games in the series and they will start Jobe, who has allowed two earned runs or fewer in three of his last four starts. Colorado has just six wins on the season .... I don't trust the Rockies at all, and I think Detroit will roll to another big win here." — David Racey, PickDawgz

"The Tigers are the much better team in this game and will roll on Wednesday. Look for the Tigers to jump on the worst team in baseball, leading to the easy win. Take Detroit on Wednesday to do the work to get the win and cover on the road. Final Score Prediction, Detroit Tigers win and cover 7-1." — Cameron Ross, Picks and Parlays

"It will be interesting to see the battle between a couple of young and talented pitchers. Chase Dollander turned the corner last time out after surrendering 13 runs (10 earned) through his first two starts at Coors Field, while Jackson Jobe struggled a bit in Houston after a few excellent outings. Anyway, I will lean on the Tigers' offense to make a difference." — Viktor Allenson, Winners and Whiners
