Yankees at Mariners picks and predictions
Prediction
Mariners 5, Yankees 4
Moneyline
New York has struggled of late on the road, and Seattle has been a groove on home turf. Enter Woo, who has registered a 1.66 ERA, 0.64 WHIP at T-Mobile this season, and Seattle is in green check-mark territory.
More green check marks are forthcoming.
The Mariners have underplayed their 4.11 runs per Game and 3.76 RPG allowed. They should probably have an overall record similar to that of the Yanks, so they figure to be undervalued.
New York tends to be careful with Gil, who is up against some usage limits based on previous season work. That could expose Yankee relievers, and that’s an Achilles heal for the visiting nine.
Woo registered a free-and-easy 6 innings against New York on May 21 (scoreless on 2 hits, 0 BB, 7K). Woo’s indicators have been strong in the 2nd half.
TAKE THE MARINERS (-105).
Run line/Against the spread
The tags here have a higher hold, and the true odds are likely locked up between these prices. PASS.
Over/Under
The last 7 Seattle games have seen the Over go 5-2.
Peg both starters as being good ones with each allowing no runs in 2 starts against their opponent, but with fade-worthy leans. Especially with a low total, their combined yield put this bet in Over territory.
Seattle owns a robust .858 OPS over its last 11 games. A perceived Yankees slowdown is largely due to coming up empty in too many high-leverage situations.
BACK THE OVER 7 (-105).
