With a.285 batting average, Jeimer Candelario leads the Tigers offense, while Wilson Ramos leads the team with six home runs.

Two bad pitchers face off against two bad offenses on Wednesday night. This is the type of game where each offense can find its stride and get going. Both pitchers are likely to continue to struggle, as each offense is salivating for an offensive explosion. This game could blow past this total in the first five innings. The Seattle Mariners will win in the end, but the best bet is the OVER 8-5.
