With rain expected to last until midnight, Gambling911.com believes the chance of the Tigers vs. Rockies game being postponed is rather high, likely greater than an 85% chance.  The rain chances most hours are in the 90's.  If you place you bet, it is important to understand a sportsbook's rules pertaining to suspended and postponed games, some of which differ across the board.

Remember that forecasts are subject to change.

General Rules Pertaining to Types of Bets

If the game is postponed before it begins and is not played within 48 hours of the original start time, all bets are voided, and your stake is refunded at most online sportsbooks.

If the game starts but is suspended and not completed within 48 hours, bets are voided unless the outcome of a specific market has already been determined at most online sportsbooks.

Impacts on Types of Bets

  • Single Bets: These are voided if the game isn't completed within the 48-hour window, and your stake is returned.​
  • Parlay Bets: If one leg of your parlay is voided due to a postponed game, that leg is removed, and the parlay continues with the remaining selections. The odds and potential payout are adjusted accordingly.
  • Player Props: These require all listed players to be active. If a player doesn't participate, the bet is voided.

Totals

If the game goes at least 9 innings (or 8.5 if the home team is winning), the total bet is counted and will be graded accordingly based on the score at the time of suspension.

Should the game be called off prior to 8.5 innings (or 9 full innings if the visiting team is ahead), the total bet is voided at most books. It will therefore be marked as "no action" and refunded in most cases.

In the event of a game suspension that resumes the next day (or within 24 hours), the game is deemed as "unofficial" as it applies to totals bets.  Therefore, they are voided.  However, some books do treat suspensions when resumed the next day differently in regard to totals so it is important to check individual sportsbook rules.

Tigers vs. Rockies

It should come as no surprise that the Rockies were listed early on as +154 home dogs.  They've only won six games this season thus far.

Detroit, on the other hand, is 22-13.

Kerry Carpenter has a .295 batting average to lead the Tigers, and has five doubles and eight home runs. Riley Greene is 15-for-39 with five home runs and 11 RBI over the past 10 games.

The Tigers Jackson Jobe (2-0, 3.38 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, 18 strikeouts) was slated to start along with the Rockies Chase Dollander (2-3, 6.48 ERA, 1.52 WHIP, 25 strikeouts)

Gambling911.com does not anticipate this game going off Tuesday evening.
