Rays-Tigers Preview 4-10-12
(AP) -- If they keep coming up big in the clutch, the Detroit Tigers will continue to be overwhelming favorites to win a second consecutive AL Central crown.
The Tampa Bay Rays have to like their chances in the AL East if they keep jumping out to early leads.
Detroit goes for its first 4-0 home start in 19 years Tuesday while the Rays try to open with four wins for the first time in franchise history.
After winning their first division title in 24 seasons in 2011, the Tigers (3-0) are expected to finish on top again with reigning AL MVP and Cy Young winner Justin Verlander anchoring the rotation and newcomer Prince Fielder adding plenty of pop to an already potent lineup.
