He\u2019s allowed just one earned run in 13 innings this season, and the Tigers scored just three runs in 14 innings against him last year.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8e\">He\u2019ll be opposed by Taj Bradley, who had a sparkling start to the season. He\u2019s allowed one run in 10.1 innings against the Orioles and Royals, and while those may not be offensive powerhouses, the Tigers only had three hits last night.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8h\">It\u2019s usually a low-scoring affair whenever Skubal starts, and I think that\u2019ll be the case again tonight.<\/p>\n<p>Houston Astros vs. Colorado Rockies OVER 10.5 (-105)<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8n\">Betting on the UNDER in Skubal starts is always a good idea, and so is betting the OVER at Coors Field.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-13\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8q\">The Rockies broke out for nine runs in the series opener against the Astros after salvaging a 4-1 win in their series finale against the Phillies. It was the second straight loss for Houston despite scoring 17 runs in those two games.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-14\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8t\">Astros starter Mike Burrows has been so-so so far this season, allowing seven earned runs in 10.2 innings. Kyle Freeland has been solid for Colorado, but Coors Field will get to him eventually.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-15\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8w\">After combining for 16 runs last night, I don\u2019t think this 10.5 is high enough tonight in Colorado.<\/p>\n<p>Philadelphia Phillies (-156) at San Francisco Giants<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-17\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"92\">The Phillies\u2019 early season woes appear to be behind them for now. They did win on Opening Day, but then lost three in a row. Since then, they only dropped one game in Colorado, and came back to beat the Giants 6-4 last night.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-18\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"95\">Philadelphia will have ace Cristopher Sanchez on the hill tonight. The southpaw has allowed one run on seven hits while striking out 17 through 11.1 innings in two starts.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-19\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"98\">Robbie Ray has been solid for the Giants, too, but San Francisco\u2019s bats have gone cold, resulting in a four-game losing streak.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-21\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"9d\">Unlock $300 in bonus bets \u2014 all without a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/betting\/sportsbook-promos\/draftkings-promo-code\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">promo code for DraftKings<\/a>.
