Seattle Mariners vs Texas Rangers prediction
I’m only focused on the under in this matchup. Again, Miller has been one of the best pitchers this season through 24 innings when you consider his ERA and WHIP. Gray has thrown himself into the early CY Young conversation this month where he’s allowed 2 earned runs in his last 16.1 innings while striking out 23. This is a pitcher dual, and I’m not excited to step in front of either of these arms. I expect a low scoring game and a master class from the two guys on the mound. Give me the under between the Mariners and Rangers on Wednesday.
