Kansas City Royals vs Detroit Tigers Prediction & Picks - MLB
by Dan Angell in MLB Picks
The Kansas City Royals (17-10 SU, 16-11 ATS) attempt to keep their win streak going when they play the second game of their three-game road series with the Detroit Tigers (14-12 SU, 11-15 ATS). The Royals come into this game as winners of four consecutive games, with Friday representing a rare offensive explosion for them. Kansas City’s wins have come mostly with pitching and defense, as the Royals hadn’t scored more than three runs in their previous five games before Friday.
The Tigers have been far more dependent on who’s on the mound. When Casey Mize or Tarik Skubal takes the hill, Detroit has excelled at preventing runs. When it’s the back half of the order, the Tigers have had problems. Mize goes in this game, with the Tigers holding a 4-0 record when he’s gone to the hill.

Our Kansas City Royals vs Detroit Tigers Prediction
The Royals keep proving themselves legitimate, but they face a tough pitching matchup in this game. Kansas City does counter with Brady Singer, who has mostly pitched effectively in 2024. However, Singer has been blessed not to face the tougher lineups in the American League this season. Out of his five starts, he’s faced the White Sox twice, the Twins, the Astros and finally the Blue Jays. Against Toronto, he turned in his worst performance of the season, allowing five earned runs.
Mize has pitched more consistently against better lineups than what Singer has seen. The Tigers also still have their outstanding bullpen to keep games under control. Detroit’s bullpen ranks sixth in the majors with a 2.69 ERA, and with Mize likely to give them six good innings, it’s hard to see where Kansas City finds the runs it needs to make this a tight game. Our prediction for Kansas City vs. Detroit is the Tigers to win.
