Will Drew Smyly Help the Chicago Cubs Rebound in the Series Against the Detroit Tigers?

The Chicago Cubs are set to welcome back left-handed pitcher Drew Smyly to their starting rotation for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. Smyly had been working out of the bullpen since his last start in early August, but with Marcus Stroman still on the injured list, the Cubs have decided to bring Smyly back into the rotation. Smyly, who has a 4.92 ERA and a 1.37 WHIP this season, is normally not a favored streaming option. However, he could be worth a look against the struggling Tigers' lineup. The Tigers have gone 24-10 in games when they hit two or more home runs, so Smyly will need to be on his game to keep the Tigers' offense in check. The Cubs currently have a 64-59 overall record and a 29-29 record in road games. The Tigers, on the other hand, have a 57-67 overall record and a 26-33 record in home games. This will be the first meeting between the two teams this season. Can Smyly help the Cubs bounce back and secure a win against the Tigers?
