Tigers Struggle in Cold Opener, Skubal vs Bradley Tonight
Description
The Detroit Tigers lost their first game of the season to the Minnesota Twins, 7-3, in frigid conditions at Target Field. Starter Casey Mize had a tough outing, giving up five earned runs on seven hits, three walks, and four strikeouts. The bullpen closed it out, but the Tigers offense struggled, with ten hitters striking out at least once. The team heads into three more games in Minnesota before returning home, facing a Twins team thats striking out a lot but also drawing walks. Tomorrow, Tarik Skubal (1-1, 0.69 ERA) faces Taj Bradley (1-0, 0.87 ERA) for the Tigers. Injuries are piling up, with Justin Verlander on the 15-day IL and prospects like Jackson Jobe recovering from Tommy John. Keider Montero steps in for Verlander, but the Tigers need to get healthy quickly to turn this road trip around.
