The Detroit Tigers head to the Nation’s Capital for a three-game series against the Washington Nationals. The Tigers are coming off a series split against the Pittsburgh Pirates while the Nationals are coming in after being swept by the Miami Marlins. The Tigers are currently tied for second place in the American League Central with the Cleveland Guardians and trail the Minnesota Twins by 4.5 games. The Tigers this month are 9-5 entering this series, this is a good chance for the Tigers to make up some ground in the division race as the Nationals are in last place in the National League East trailing the Braves by 9.5 games and are eight games under .500.
DETROIT TIGERS (19-22) vs. WASHINGTON NATIONALS (18-26)
Game 1: Matt Boyd (2-3, 6.47 ERA) v. Jake Irvin (1-1, 4.11 ERA)
Date: Friday, May 19
Time: 7:05 PM
Broadcast: Bally Sports Detroit
Radio: 97.1 The Ticket
Matt Boyd will get the series started for the Tigers making his eighth start of the season. Boyd is coming off his worst start of the season when he took the loss against the Seattle Mariners last Friday. Boyd did not make it out of the second inning, going 1.1 innings and giving up six runs, five of which were earned on five hits; he walked four and struck out one. Boyd will be looking to put that start behind him and have a start similar to what he did in the early part of the season. Boyd will take on Jake Irvin for the Nationals who is making his fourth start of his career, coming off his first loss in which the Mets beat the Nationals last Sunday.
Game 2: Alex Faedo (0-1, 4.22 ERA) v. Patrick Corbin (2-5, 4.65 ERA)
Date: Saturday, May 20
Time: 4:05 PM
Broadcast: Bally Sports Detroit
Radio: 97.1 The Ticket
Alex Faedo will get the middle game of the series against the Nationals. Faedo is making his third start since being called up from AAA Toledo. Faedo pitched well in his last start against the Mariners going six innings giving up three runs on four hits; he walked one and struck out seven. If Faedo pitches as he did against Seattle he may stay up with the Tigers, he just needs the Tigers lineup to produce runs for him. This season after his first two starts Faedo has a 0.75 WHIP, a 6.95 FIP, a 6.8 K/9, and a 0.8 BB/9. Faedo will take on the Nationals’ best pitcher in Patrick Corbin who has had a down year. However, he is coming off one of his best starts in which he beat the Mets going six innings giving up two runs on eight hits; he walked one and struck out one.
Game 3: Joey Wentz (1-3, 6.38 ERA) v. Josiah Gray (3-5, 2.73 ERA)
Date: Sunday, May 21
Time: 1:35 PM
Broadcast: Bally Sports Detroit
Radio: 97.1 The Ticket
Joey Wentz will get the finale for the Tigers as he did last weekend against the Mariners. Wentz did not last long in his last start against Seattle going just 2.2 innings giving up three runs on six hits; he walked one and struck out three. The Tigers ended up winning that game even though Wentz left early. Wentz is making his ninth start of the year and although his numbers don’t show it he has not pitched badly this season producing some solid outings that have kept the Tigers in games. Wentz will take on Josiah Gray for the Nationals who is making his tenth start of the season and coming off a solid outing against the Marlins, a game in which he did not factor into the decision going seven innings giving up only one earned run. The Nationals would end up losing that game to Miami.
