The Texas Rangers and Seattle Mariners meet Tuesday in MLB action at T-Mobile Park. The Texas Rangers need a win after losing 6 of their last 8 games. The Seattle Mariners need a win after losing 8 of their last 12 games.
The Texas Rangers have scored 9 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 6 of their last 11 games. The Rangers have won 5 of their last 8 games when scoring 4 or more runs. Nathaniel Lowe leads the Rangers with 170 hits and 73 RBI, while Marcus Semien and Adolis Garcia have combined for 299 hits and 174 RBI.

Robbie Ray gets the ball, and he is 12-10 with a 3.60 ERA and 201 strikeouts this season. Ray is 5-1 with a 4.05 ERA and 52 strikeouts in his career against the Rangers.
The Texas Rangers didn’t list a starting pitcher at the time this article was published, but I’m not sure if it matters. The Rangers have nothing to play for, and the losses continue to pile up despite decent offense. The Mariners have a magic number of 7 to end the playoff drought, and they get a favorable series here. Ray has also been great at home this season, where he has a 2.73 ERA and .197 allowed batting average. Give me the M’s and the RL to shave down the expected juice.
