Neither pitcher has been terribly impressive for the two teams, with Boyd posting a 9.69 ERA in his last three starts while Nolasco is at 6.62 for his last three outings. But, Detroit has been a good team at home and coming off a walk-off win over the Royals on Sunday. Detroit is still hopeful to make a run at Cleveland in the Central, so it needs to take care of its home field, especially against the Twins. Look for them to simply outscore Minnesota tonight.
