NY Yankees vs Seattle Mariners Prediction
I’ll probably lean toward the Yankees. Probably also staying away. Gil is on a nice run these days. He’s got just two earned runs over his last three starts, giving up nine combined hits and seven walks over 18.0 innings. Gil is 3-0 in that time. As for Castillo, he’s given up six earned over his last 18.2 frames, going 1-1 in his last trio.
On Wednesday, the Yankees jumped out to a 4-0 lead after three innings and only got into trouble during the eighth. New York should be in a position to get the W in the Thursday finale if they can keep the bats going.
