The Mariners are 6-2 in their 8 meetings against the Rangers this season, and 9-3 in their last 12 overall meetings. The Mariners are 5-3 in their last 8 visits in Texas, and over is 8-3 in their last 11 meetings.

In this Mariners vs Rangers Prediction, the Mariners are coming as -125 road favorites. Both teams have almost identical records, and similar home/away splits. Both pitchers are due to some negative regression, as they have a 9.75 expected ERA combined. Castillo has also been terrible on the road, and both pitchers are coming into this matchup in terrible form. Castillo has 3+ earned runs in three of his last four starts, and Leiter 3+ runs in each of his last three. I expect runs while those two pitchers are on the mound, so take the over 4.5 runs in the first 5 innings.
