Mariners vs Indians Baseball Picks

The Mariners poor play in after the break has put them in a hole. They no longer hold the Wild Card spot and it looks like they don’t have much of a chance to catch the Angels or A’s.

Seattle

They are not out of it by a longshot, especially given they probably have the best pitching amongst the Wild Card eligibles.

They won the series opener and will look to their ace to keep things rolling. The M’s welcomed back Kendrys Morales but so far he has been struggling with just one hit over 4 games. They need his offense big time.

Felix Hernandez continues to be on pace for his best season ever. He has not a game since the All-Star break but he continues to dominate and with just 1ER over his last 14 IP he has dropped his ERA below 2.

He is on an amazing run of 13 starts without giving up more than 2ER and looks headed for another Cy Young award, though the competition is pretty fierce at this point.

I don’t know how you can bet against this guy.

Cleveland

The Indians are in a funk and you have to wonder if they just might have switched from potential buyers to sellers. Last night was a big opportunity to show some life and they blew it.

The deadline is looming and tonight they have a great chance at a win with their own ace on the hill.

The Indians have the opposite problem of Seattle, they can put runs on the board but their starting pitching outside of Kluber has been disappointing. The bullpen has been very good in part due to Cody Allen emerging as the new closer.

Corey Kluber is having a breakout season this year. His ERA has dropped big time from last season but more obviously he has increased his dominance, striking out batters at a pace he had not shown at the Major League level.

Pitting him against The King means that it is going to be a tough day at the office for hitters.

He has been especially dominant lately, striking out 10 in three of his last 4 starts.

Usually when there are two strong hurlers on the hill we don’t get the duel we are looking for. In this one I think we will and it wouldn’t shock me if all the runs come in the first inning with Hernandez and Kluber duking it out from there. This will have the feel of a playoff game while cementing Cleveland as a pretender.

Total prediction: Under
Score prediction: Seattle 2 – Cleveland 1
