Tigers vs. Angels Game 4: Prediction & Pick

Tigers' Kerry Carpenter is blowing hot and cold, but along with Spencer Torkelson and Riley Greene, the team should catch a spark against struggling Angels starter Jack Kochanowicz.

Mike Trout's unavailability doesn't make it any easier for the Angels, as they might not come out as winners on Sunday.

Prediction: Tigers 4, Angels 1
