Seattle Mariners vs. Texas Rangers Prediction
I’m on the Mariners in this one. I just think Seattle is holding the edge in starting pitching in this game and I don’t think this is a spot where I want to back Kumar Rocker, even with the problems that the Mariners have had against right-handed pitching as of late. Kirby has fantastic numbers in his career against the Rangers and I think that carries over here as Seattle picks up a win to earn the series split. Give me the Mariners.
