Tigers vs Mariners Prediction
The Tigers are 3-1 in their last 4 meetings against the Mariners and have won two of their last three meetings in Seattle.
In this Tigers vs Mariners Prediction, the Mariners are coming as -145 home favorites. I like the Mariners in a bounce-back spot today at home after being shut out yesterday by 8-0. Bryan Woo has been another beast at home with a 6-0 record and 2.20 ERA and the Tigers are going for a bullpen game today. The Mariners have a better bullpen and I expect their bats to wake up today after being shut out yesterday. Take the Mariners to win this one at home.
