Gleyber Torres Baseball Game

Detroit, MIGleyber Torres will look to improve after a hitless performance in his last game as the New York Yankees prepare to face the Detroit Tigers on Friday at 7:10 p.m. ET.

The Yankees’ second baseman went 0 for 4 in his previous outing but holds a batting average of .267 for the season with nine doubles, five home runs, and 33 walks.

Torres will face Tigers’ pitcher Nick Martinez at Comerica Park. When matched up against Martinez, Torres hopes to break out of his slump and contribute to the Yankees’ offense.

The Tigers are listed as -136 moneyline favorites, while the Yankees are underdogs at +116. The game’s total has been set at 8 runs by oddsmakers.

In their last ten games, the Tigers have a record of 6-4, scoring an average of 3.9 runs per game. They have hit 11 home runs this season and have a team earned run average (ERA) of 3.58.

Meanwhile, Torres’ teammate Spencer Torkelson and Reds’ Elly De La Cruz are also in the spotlight with various prop bets. Torkelson, batting .234 with 16 home runs this season, is one to watch as well.

As the game approaches, fans and bettors alike will keep an eye on Torres’ performance. Both teams are eager for a win, making this a highly anticipated match-up.

“I’m just focused on hitting the ball and helping my team win,” Torres said ahead of the game.
