Mariners at Rays picks and predictions

Prediction

Mariners 4, Rays 3

Moneyline

With Kirby on the mound for Seattle, I’ll back the MARINERS (-115) on the road in Friday’s matchup. Seattle has won 3 straight against the Cubs.

Run line/Against the spread

While the Rays should keep this game within 2 runs, I’ll PASS on the run line in this contest. Both of the last 2 meetings between these teams has been decided by 1 run.

Over/Under

UNDER 8 (-115) is the lean in this game as Kirby should limit the Rays and Bradley could have a decent number of strikeouts against the Mariners. Kirby’s ability to avoid walking batters should prevent Tampa Bay from having an abundance of base runners Friday.

The Rays are 4-5-1 to the Over in their last 10 games overall and the Rays are 5-5 to the Over in their last 10 games.

Season series: Reds lead 2-0

The Mariners lost 7-6 to the Reds on Tuesday despite OF Julio Rodriguez hitting 2 home runs. Seattle has lost 3 games in a row and is now 1 game behind the Houston Astros for 1st place in the AL West and holds the 2nd AL Wild Card.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Mariners at Reds picks and predictions

Prediction

Mariners 6, Reds 3

Moneyline

Even though the Mariners (-165) should avoid getting swept by the Reds on Wednesday, I’ll PASS on their moneyline at the current odds after losing the first 2 games of the series.

Run line/Against the spread

MARINERS -1.5 (-110) is a solid pick in this matchup with Gilbert starting for Seattle and Richardson starting for Cincinnati. The Mariners have posted the 3rd-best ISO (.213), the 3rd-best wOBA (.358), and the 2nd-best wRC+ (136) against right-handed pitching since the beginning of August.

Over/Under

UNDER 9.5 (-105) is how I’d wager on the total despite this game taking place at Great American Ball Park. Gilbert has given up 2 earned runs or fewer in 3 straight starts.

The Mariners are 4-5-1 to the Over in their last 10 games overall, while the Reds are 2-8 to the Over in their last 10.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Seattle Mariners (66-55) open a 3-game series against the Houston Astros (70-52) on Friday at Minute Maid Park. First pitch is scheduled for 8:10 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Mariners vs. Astros odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Mariners lead 5-2

The Mariners picked up a 3rd straight win with a 6-4 victory over the Kansas City Royals Thursday. Seattle is in 3rd place in the AL West and is 6 games behind the Texas Rangers atop the division and 1/2 game back of the Toronto Blue Jays for the final AL Wild Card.

Mariners at Astros projected starters

RHP Bryce Miller vs. RHP J.P. France

Over/Under (O/U): 8.5 (O: -120 | U: +100)

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Mariners at Astros picks and predictions

Prediction

Astros 4, Mariners 3

Moneyline

France has been credited with a win in each of his 4 starts since the All-Star break, so I’ll take the ASTROS (-145) at home in Friday’s divisional matchup. Both of these teams have had recent stretches of success, but Houston has the slight edge at home.

Run line/Against the spread

Go ahead and PASS on wagering on the run line in this game as the Mariners should keep this game competitive. That being said, I wouldn’t take Seattle with the run of insurance unless you can get it at -160 odds or better.

Over/Under

UNDER 8.5 (+100) is the play Friday with Miller and France pitching well in recent starts. Miller has given up 1 or fewer earned runs in 4 of his 6 starts since the All-Star break, while France has surrendered 2 or fewer earned runs in his last 4 starts.

The Under is also 4-1 in the last 5 meetings this season.

Mariners at Angels picks and predictions

Prediction

Mariners 4, Angels 3

Moneyline

Given how these teams have performed recently, I’ll side with the MARINERS (+100) on the road in Sunday’s series finale. Seattle has won 4 of the last 5 meetings this season and enters as winners of 4 straight.

The Mariners have also won 12 of their last 16 road games.

Run line/Against the spread

Sunday’s finale should be a tight game, but taking the Mariners +1.5 (-185) with a run of insurance isn’t worth the risk at the current odds. With that in mind, just AVOID wagering on the spread in this divisional contest.

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Over/Under

UNDER 9.5 (-105) is the play in this game as Miller looks to bounce back from his last start. The Mariners have hit the Under in 11 of their last 15 road games, while the Angels are 23-15 to the Under in their last 38 home games.

Prediction

Even with Kirby on the mound for the Mariners, I’ll side with the ASTROS (-105) at home. The Mariners are 14-37 in the last 51 road meetings against the Astros and 21-52 in the last 73 meetings overall.

Houston is also 42-19 in its last 61 games against a team with a losing record.

Season series: Tied 1-1

After winning Friday’s game 13-1, the Mariners lost 6-4 to the Orioles on Saturday and need a win on Sunday to finish .500 on their 6-game East Coast swing. Seattle, which is averaging 9 runs per game over its last 3 games, has lost 9 of its last 13 on the road.

Baltimore looks to win the 1st series of a 9-game homestand on Sunday. The Orioles are 23-14 at Camden Yards, but just 7-7 in their last 14 home games. Baltimore is allowing 5.6 runs per game over that stretch.

Prediction

Orioles 4, Mariners 3

Moneyline

ORIOLES (+108)

I love getting the Orioles at home at plus money, even despite their recent struggles in Charm City.

The Mariners are 26-29 against right-handed pitchers this season. Bradish sports a 3.14 ERA at Camden Yards, holding his opponents to a batting average of .225.

The Orioles are 28-20 against righties this season. Kirby owns a 2-4 record away from Seattle allowing batters to hit .277 against him.

Run line/Against the spread

AVOID.

I obviously like the Orioles +1.5 (-156), but I don’t love having to put up more than 1 1/2 units so I’ll pass.

Over/Under

UNDER 8.5 (-105) is the lean despite both games in this series having gone Over thus far. Two good, young arms are dueling on Sunday afternoon in Baltimore and this game will be tight.

Mariners at Yankees picks and predictions

Prediction

Yankees 3, Mariners 2

Moneyline

While both teams have been inconsistent recently, I’ll side with the YANKEES (-135) at home with Cole on the bump. The Mariners are 4-12 in the last 16 road meetings and 15-36 in the last 51 meetings overall.

Run line/Against the spread

Even though the Mariners should keep this game close with Kirby getting the nod, I’ll PASS on wagering on the run line in this game at nearly -200 odds.

Over/Under

UNDER 7 (-105) is the play in this matchup despite it being such a low total. Cole should be able to limit the Mariners at home and the Yankees have sputtered offensively with OF Aaron Judge sidelined with a toe injury.

The Under is 15-6-2 in the last 23 meetings in New York and 43-21-5 in the last 69 meetings overall.

Over/Under (O/U): 8 (O: -105 | U: -115)

Mariners at Rangers picks and predictions

Prediction

Rangers 4, Mariners 2

Moneyline

There aren’t many opportunities to bet on a team like Texas as an underdog, so I’ll take the RANGERS (-105) in Friday’s AL West bout. While Castillo has been great for the Mariners, Gray has looked fantastic, winning 4 straight starts.

Also, the Rangers are tied for the 3rd-best wOBA (.335) and boast the 4th-best wRC+ (113) against right-handed pitching this season.

Run line/Against the spread

Even though I have the Rangers winning outright, I’ll PASS on the run line in this matchup. If you can get Texas’ run line at -160 or better, then I’d feel better about taking it.

Over/Under

UNDER 8 (-115) is an enticing bet with Castillo and Gray taking the bump on Friday. The Under is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings overall and Gray has given up 1 ER or fewer in 4 consecutive starts.

Athletics at Mariners projected starters

LHP Kyle Muller vs. RHP Luis Castillo

Muller (1-3, 7.71 ERA) makes his 10th start. He has a 1.95 WHIP, 4.5 BB/9 and 6.4 K/9 through 42 IP.

Has given up 4-plus ER in 6 of his first 9 starts and 5-plus ER in 3 straight turns
Has allowed 1 HR in 7 consecutive starts

Run line (RL)/Against the spread (ATS): Athletics +2.5 (-120) | Mariners -2.5 (+100)
Over/Under (O/U): 7.5 (O: -120 | U: +100)

Athletics at Mariners picks and predictions

Prediction

Mariners 6, Athletics 2

Moneyline

AVOID.

Unless you believe the Athletics can pull off the upset on the road, then wagering on the moneyline in this game isn’t worth the risk. The Mariners (-300) are likely to win, but the odds are too steep to warrant a bet.

Run line/Against the spread

I typically wouldn’t advocate for a team to win by 3 runs, but MARINERS -2.5 (+100) is the pick in this game with the pitching matchup being lopsided. Despite Castillo’s recent woes, Muller has been one of the worst starters in baseball and the Athletics are a perfect get-right team for Castillo to face.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 7.5 (-120).

Even with Castillo on the mound for the Mariners and limiting the Athletics, Muller is bleeding runs to opposing teams at a torrid pace. And even when Muller exits the game, Oakland’s bullpen has allowed the most earned runs (135) in the league.
