It is not easy to stand out on the Los Angeles Angels, a team with the top two favorites for American League MVP, but a no-hitter will do it, and 22-year-old Detmers has now inserted his name into the American League Rookie of the Year chase.

The 10th pick in the 2020 Draft, coming out of the University of Louisville, Detmers was a top prospect entering the 2022 season, ranked as high as No. 21 on MLB’s list of top prospects. He had started five games for the Angels last season, but he had a 7.40 ERA through five starts.

This season, he has appeared more major-league ready. Although he allowed five earned runs in his second start of the season and had not gone more than five innings in any of his five starts going into Tuesday’s matchup with Tampa Bay, Detmers had been more consistent. Through six starts, he has a 3.77 ERA and 0.84 WHIP, though he only has 5.8 strikeouts per nine innings.

Detmers only struck out two Rays, walking just one, while going the distance and throwing 108 pitchers in the no-hitter on Tuesday.

He still has some work to do in order to gain ground on the other American League Rookie of the Year contenders, but the no-hitter could be a springboard for Detmers if he can build on this outstanding performance.Make sure to keep an eye on our Live Odds page throughout the week to get the best lines possible and connect with others in the SBR community on our popular sports betting forum.
