Seattle is going to finish in last in the AL West this season. Anything other than that fate will be a big surprise, though they started last season well.
Houston is the division favourite and the fact that there will be no fans this year could be advantageous. So could having one of the most talented teams in the league.
Seattle Mariners
Short season or not the prospects for the Mariners were never going to be good this year. There is just not much to work with.
The lineup has become quite lame as Kyle Seager has not aged very well. He used to be one of the best at his position but that is far from the case now.
Speedy Mallex Smith provides a little excitement but has trouble stealing first. This team is going to struggle to score runs all season long.
King Felix has moved on but the M’s have not had an ace in some time. Marco Gonzales might be the worst opening day starter in the league.
Houston Astros
I am not promoting cheating but it does not change that Houston is super talented. This team has a core in its prime and that alone could be enough to grab another title.
They also have a strong starting staff with Justin Verlander as the tip of the spear. He was awesome last season and there is no reason to think he won’t be again in 2020.
If Carlos Correa is healthy for this short season the Astros, even without Gerrit Cole, could be even better. Slugger Yordan Alvarez is not available for the moment.
The starters get so much attention that the bullpen is probably not given enough credit. Roberto Osuna is really good at locking down games.

Free Seattle Mariners vs. Houston Astros MLB Prediction:
It is going to be hard to know just how much home field advantage really matters anymore. Nevertheless, Seattle has only won once in its last 12 in Houston
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: Houston RL
This feels like the only play. A bit like the Dodgers play last night, even without Kershaw. There is not much value in anything else on this game. .
