Mariners at Rangers picks and predictions

Prediction

Rangers 4, Mariners 3

Moneyline

BET RANGERS (-106).

The Rangers are coming off an impressive road win over the Braves. They are 5-5 straight up at home and 1-0 straight up as a home underdog. Texas has scored at least 5 runs in 3 of its last 5 games, so it has consistently produced offensively.

Seattle’s strength is in its pitching, but Gilbert hasn’t been as good on the road. It has scored 3 or fewer runs in 4 of its last 8 games and is just 4-5 straight up on the road.

Considering those trends, back RANGERS (-106).

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

There’s not great value on the run line here. The Mariners are too risky as run-line favorites, while the Rangers are far too expensive as run-line underdogs.

Ultimately, whichever way one leans, the moneyline is the better play.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 9 (-112).

Again, the Mariners’ strength is their pitching. They have allowed 6 total runs in the last 5 games. Gilbert has been a strong option, although worse on the road, for them this season. Seattle is 7-14-1 O/U on the season.

Dunning has been solid as well, and the Rangers have allowed 18 runs throughout his 4 starts. Texas has gone 4-3 O/U in its last 7. Considering the Mariners’ strength in pitching, back UNDER 9 (-112).
