Seattle Mariners vs Minnesota Twins 6/14/22 MLB Picks, Predictions, Odds

The Minnesota Twins and the Seattle Mariners meet in MLB action from T-Mobile Park on Tuesday night.

The Minnesota Twins will look to build on their 3-2 series-opening win over the Mariners from Monday. Luis Arraez has 68 hits including 5 doubles while also posting a .362 batting average. Byron Buxton also has 41 hits with a team-high 18 home runs and 32 RBIs and Trevor Larnach has 13 doubles and Gary Sanchez has 15 doubles to lead the Twins in two-baggers this season. Jorge Polanco has 53 hits and 33 RBIs and Max Kepler has 28 RBIs as well on the year, while Carlos Correa’s also added 48 hits. Joe Ryan will start here and is 5-2 with a 2.28 ERA and 42 strikeouts this season.

The Seattle Mariners will look to exact some revenge after their loss to the Twins last time out. Ty France leads the Mariners with 77 hits along with 9 home runs and 39 RBIs while Adam Frazier has 55 hits and 12 doubles. Eugenio Suarez also has 12 doubles with 11 homers of his own and 32 RBIs while J.P. Crawford has 63 hits, 5 homers and 12 doubles as well as a .297 batting average. Logan Gilbert will start here and is 6-2 with a 2.41 ERA and 70 strikeouts this season.

Minnesota is 1-4 in their last 5 games against a team with a losing record and 6-1 in their last 7 game two matchups while the over is 7-1-1 in their last 9 games overall. Seattle is 4-0 in their last 4 games against the AL Central and 3-11 in their last 14 game two matchups while the under is 6-1 in their last 7 home games against a team with a winning record.

I get the case to be made for both sides in this game, but I’m looking at the under here. I think the pitching matchup of Logan Gilbert vs. Joe Ryan (even with Ryan’s return from the IL in this one) is shaping up to be a bona fide pitcher’s duel. I think this is a 3-2 or 2-1 game at best so give me the under here.
