The AL wild card race is a jumbled mess, but it will be much clearer over the next three days as the Red Sox visit the Mariners.
The Red Sox currently sit in a tie with the Blue Jays for the two wild card spots, but the Mariners (who are 3 GB) can do some damage with a good series here. Seattle dropped two of three at home against last place Arizona over the weekend, so they have some making up to do.
Pinch-hitter Kyle Schwarber hit a clutch tiebreaking three-run double in the eighth inning and the Red Sox beat the Mariners 8-4 on Tuesday night to keep pace in the AL wild-card race.
Boston Red Sox
Boston just got done playing a couple of first place teams, but their 2-4 record over the last 6 against Tampa Bay and the White Sox doesn’t look good. The Red Sox have still managed to keep hold of the 2nd wild card spot mostly because Seattle lost their weekend series while Oakland and the Yankees are playing sub .500 ball over their last 10.
The Red Sox can find their offense at times, with 7+ runs scored in three of their last six. That being said Boston managed just 4 hits in Sunday’s 2-1 loss to the White Sox, and have relied on Bobby Dalbec (3 HR, 8 RBI) for most of their offense over the past week.
Seattle Mariners
Seattle laid an egg over the weekend, not only failing to get a sweep over Arizona but actually dropping 2 of 3 to lose the series. That’s unacceptable for a Mariners team in the playoff hunt hosting the worst road team in baseball. The M’s lost as -171 and -165 favorites.
The Mariners have now lost 4 of their last 6, and overall their pitching looks to be in shambles. Seattle has allowed 5+ runs in 7 of the last 9 games, and Boston definitely has the talent to continue that trend even though Monday night’s run total is only 8.
MLB Baseball Betting Trends:
- Red Sox are 82-65 overall
- Red Sox are 38-36 on the road
- Mariners are 78-67 overall
- Mariners are 42-32 at home
Free Boston Red Sox vs. Seattle Mariners MLB Prediction:
The Red Sox are every bit as desperate as the Mariners to win this series and work towards locking up a Wild Card spot in the playoffs.
No, Boston doesn’t have the most reliable defense in the league, and their pitching rotation is ranked 17th in ERA (4.36). But are you really ready to put your trust in a Mariners offense that’s not even averaging 4 runs in their home building. It’s also a Mariners team averaging the least hits in the league.
It’s hard to win games of this magnitude if the team can’t consistently produce on the offensive end. The Mariners look like one of those teams heading into Wednesday’s game.
I’m taking the Red Sox on the road.
