Texas Rangers at Seattle Mariners odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Texas Rangers at Seattle Mariners odds and lines, with MLB expert picks and predictions.

The Texas Rangers (66-87) and Seattle Mariners (83-70) meet Wednesday at 9:40 p.m. ET to put a lid on a 3-game AL West series at T-Mobile Park. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Rangers vs. Mariners odds with MLB picks and predictions.

Season series: Seattle leads 12-5

Texas had lost 3 straight games and 6 of its previous 8 before winning Tuesday’s opener 5-0. Earlier this year, across multiple series, Texas lost 9 in a row to Seattle. But with Tuesday’s win, the Rangers have now taken 3 in a row from the Mariners.

Seattle is just 3-8 in its last 11 games. Over that stretch, Mariners pitching has logged a lackluster 5.28 ERA. The club heads into Wednesday’s contest having allowed 5 or more runs in 5 straight games.

Rangers at Mariners picks and predictions

Prediction

Mariners 5, Rangers 3

Money line

Seattle is the lean, but the price here is out of whack. PASS.

Run line/Against the spread

Texas faced lefty Robbie Ray in Game 1. The Rangers are much more dangerous against southpaws and are a bottom-10 group with their .680 OPS against righties.

The Mariners offense fell flat in Tuesday’s return home after a road trip and an off day. Look for a rebound with a rested bullpen — and a bullpen advantage — on Wednesday.

BACK SEATTLE -1.5 (+140).

Over/Under

With some fade lean into both bullpens and with Perez having some good fortune around the margins (and a higher expected ERA), there is a slight lean on the OVER 6.5 (-112).

Texas Rangers at Seattle Mariners odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Texas Rangers at Seattle Mariners odds and lines, with MLB expert picks and predictions.

The Texas Rangers (65-87) and Seattle Mariners (83-69) meet Monday at 9:40 p.m. ET to open a 3-game AL West series at T-Mobile Park. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Rangers vs. Mariners odds with MLB picks and predictions.

Season series: Seattle leads 12-4

Texas has lost 3 games in a row and 6 of its last 8. The Rangers offense has produced a mere .610 OPS over that stretch. Earlier in the season series, and across multiple series, Texas lost 9 in a row to the Mariners. However, the club enters Tuesday — after an off day — having won 2 in a row against Seattle (Aug. 13-14).

The Mariners are back at home — after a Monday off day — on the heels of a 3-7 road trip. Seattle is 15-12 at home in the 2nd half. Mariners hurlers have compiled a 2.99 ERA and 1.02 WHIP over those 27 games.

Rangers at Mariners projected starters

RHP Jesus Tinoco vs. LHP Robbie Ray

Tinoco (0-0, 1.72 ERA) owns 0.96 WHIP, 4.0 BB/9 and 7.5 K/9 through 15 2/3 IP across 13 games.

  • Expected to be the opener for a Texas bullpen game
  • Has only pitched in relief in 44 career MLB games
  • RHP Tyson Miller is expected to get bulk innings behind Tinoco; he has allowed 6 ER in 3 MLB innings this season and owns a Triple-A ERA of 4.52

Ray (12-10, 3.60 ERA) is tabbed for his 31st start of the season. He has a 1.16 WHIP, 2.9 BB/9 and 10.2 K/9 through 177 2/3 IP.

  • Has held current Texas batters to a whiff-laden .570 aggregate OPS
  • Owns a 2.59 ERA over his last 7 starts

Rangers at Mariners picks and predictions

Prediction

Mariners 5, Rangers 3

Money line

Seattle is the lean but only an actionable play up to -200. PASS.

Run line/Against the spread

Texas is at its best against port-siders (.755 OPS), but Robbie Ray is on an exceptional roll and he’s held the Rangers in check in the past.

The Mariners offense has run hot-and-cold recently, but it has reeled in 6 or more runs in 3 of its last 4 games. The off day may help the Seattle bats: the club has had some big-production days after off days in the second half.

BACK SEATTLE -1.5 (+110).

Over/Under

With some fade lean into both bullpens, there is a slight lean on the OVER 7.5 (-105).
