Our Tigers vs. Astros predictions for Game 1 don't expect many runs, with an elite pitching matchup set to tell the story.
Tarik Skubal has been a strikeout machine for the Detroit Tigers this year, while Framber Valdez is still dominant himself. Don't expect either pitcher to give up much this afternoon.
Houston got to Skubal late the last time he faced it in June. The southpaw posted five shutout innings before allowing a four-run sixth inning to end his day sour. I don't chalk that up to anything the Astros were doing, though. It was more a product of Skubal adjusting to still going elite length. He's allowed just two earned runs over his last 14 innings of work against Detroit, but if you expand beyond the Tigers, you'll see he's had a boatload of success against mostly any team with a high ground ball clip. Valdez had an ERA of nearly one against the teams in the Top 5 of the highest ground ball rate, and he'll feast today.Houston hasn't submitted its roster, so we don't know if Yordan Alvarez is playing.
