Player to watch out for in Los Angeles Dodgers vs Detroit Tigers

Javier Baez – Tigers

If the Tigers want to have a shot to take down the Dodgers, then their big-money signing SS Javier Baez needs to have a monster game and lead his team from the front.

The Dodgers will be the heavy favorites to win this game because they are quite arguably the best team in baseball while their opponents are in a slump.
