Seattle Mariners vs. Texas Rangers Prediction
I’m on the Rangers in this one. I get the case to be made for Seattle with Gilbert on the road as Gilbert’s been far sharper on the road this season which is definitely a 180 compared to what we’ve seen from him over the last few years. However, the Mariners are just non-existent at the plate right now, and I think that this is just a bad matchup. Texas is playing the better baseball in my opinion right now, and I think the Rangers get it done once again. Give me Texas.
