Tigers vs Mariners Prediction 

Seattle limps into this matchup after a rough series in New York, where they completely fell apart in game three. The Mariners are 23-24 on the road this year, while the Tigers are 32-15 at home. Detroit is one of the best teams in baseball and they are starting Skubal, who continues to be the most dominant pitcher in the MLB. Seattle is starting Castillo, who has allowed a total of one earned run in his last 13.0 innings. This should be a great pitching matchup, but I have to take the Tigers on the run line at plus money with Skubal on the mound.
