Seattle Mariners vs Tampa Bay Rays Prediction

I’ve faded the Seattle Mariners a lot over the last few months, and I’m not excited to get behind them here. However, the Mariners need to take advantage of Games like this, and they have the clear pitching edge with Luis Castillo on the mound. The Rays can’t string together runs, and Tyler Alexander has been awful this year overall. The Mariners are only 3.5 Games out of the AL West. Games against non playoff teams at home are a must win for the M’s if they’re going to make the postseason. Give me the Mariners and the RL for max betting vale.
