Tigers vs Rockies

Mile-High air can’t save a slumping purple crew.

Detroit Tigers

Tigers (22-13) VS Rockies (6-28)

May 06 2025 | 8:40 PM ET | Coors Field, Denver

Colorado Rockies
Moneyline Pick - Detroit Tigers (-190): A-

Detroit arrives in Denver riding a 7-3 run and leaning on one of the league’s hottest arms to extend it. Colorado, meanwhile, has dropped three straight, has yet to record a tenth win this season, and continues to struggle at the plate while navigating key injuries on both sides of the ball. The Tigers' lineup has found ways to produce at Coors in the past, and they bring rested arms into a park that often demands bullpen depth. With quality starts fueling their recent surge, Detroit's bullpen enters fresher and sharper than a Rockies group that’s been hammered and overworked.

The price may reflect the edge, but with clear advantages in form, health, and pitching stability, Detroit justifies the chalk. This play earns an A- for reliability and a solid B for value—strong enough to back without hesitation in a park that punishes thin rosters.

Over/Under Pick - Over 9.5 (-110): B

Detroit enters Denver riding great form and brings a healthy, confident lineup into one of baseball’s most hitter-friendly environments. Colorado continues to slide, on a continued 2-8 run, and rolls out a depleted staff missing rotation depth and late-inning reliability. Even with a strong arm on the mound for the visitors, prior outings at Coors have proven turbulent, and the home side lacks the veteran presence to keep pace if it turns into a slugfest. Both bullpens sit bottom-five in WHIP, offering little resistance once the starters exit.

With thin air, shaky relief corps, and momentum leaning toward one side’s offense, the over on 9.5 presents a clear path. It may not be elite due to the visitors’ starting strength, but it holds steady value—earning a dependable B-grade for those expecting the altitude to inflate the scoreboard.

Spread Pick - Detroit Tigers, -1.5 (-115): A-

Detroit rolls into Coors Field with only a single win in this streak but a 7-3 run in their last ten, and a lineup built to punish lefties, setting the stage against a Colorado club mired in prolonged slump and missing key contributors on both sides. With a starter who’s struggled historically in this park and a bullpen that’s offered little relief, the Rockies look overmatched against a Detroit squad that’s thrived against southpaws and brings a rested ace into a hitter-friendly venue. Even with one regular bat possibly sidelined, the road club enters with momentum and balance in both arms and bats.

Laying the run and a half at -115 brings an attractive mix of high probability and fair value. Detroit’s current form and matchup dominance make this an A- grade play, especially with a multi-run outcome squarely in view.
