Texas Rangers vs. Seattle Mariners MLB Prediction:
The Mariners have been playing pretty good this year. They will need to continue that good play in this series if they wish to gain ground in the standings. I look for them to play well in this one.
Seattle is the better team and I feel they will show that in this game and for the series. I have really no confidence in backing the Rangers here, given how poorly they have played this year.
Although Marco Gonzales has not pitched great this year, I still say he is better than Jordan Lyles. I look for Gonzales to be effective against the Rangers and lead his team to a win. Seattle should be able to get some runs off of Lyles.
I like the Mariners on the moneyline in this one.
