The Tigers are batting .213/.290/.326 with 64 runs, putting them in the bottom quadrant across four major batting metrics. The Rangers, meanwhile, rank in the top 10 in runs (94), batting average (.258), and on-base percentage (.334). Their .386 slugging percentage place in the top 15.

Pitchers Matchup:
Jack Leiter will be making his much-awaited MLB debut. The 23-year-old Leither was picked second overall by the Rangers in the 2021 MLB Draft. He compiled 6-17 win-loss card in the minors with 5.25 ERA, 1.47 WHIP, and 248 strikeouts. The Tigers will dispatch Kenta Maeda to spoil Leither’s debut.

Our Texas Rangers vs Detroit Tigers Prediction
Player Props: After a rocky start to his professional baseball career, Leither has a career resurgence this season as he posted a 3.77 ERA in 14 1/3 innings with 25 strikeouts to three walks. He just struck out 10 batters in a Triple-A game against Oklahoma City last April 12. While major league sluggers are on an entirely different level, Leither may likely wrap up his first MLB game with a handful of strikeouts against one of the worst batting corps in baseball. DraftKings listed Leither at over/under 4.5 strikeouts in his major league debut
Our betting pick for the Rangers vs. Tigers: Jack Leiter over 4.5 strikeouts at DraftKings.
