Detroit Tigers vs Seattle Mariners Analysis

The Seattle Mariners will be looking for a three game sweep over the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park on Thursday afternoon. They rallied late in yesterday’s game to come out on top 5-3 after hammering the Tigers 9-3 on Tuesday.

After this series, the Tigers stay home to face the Kansas City Royals, while the Mariners stay on the road in Cleveland against the Guardians.

Detroit will send the lefty Eduardo Rodriguez to the mound, while Seattle trots out the towering righty Logan Gilbert. First pitch is scheduled for 1:10 PM EST/10:10 AM PST for this Thursday matinee.

Seattle Comes In Search Of A Sweep

The Seattle Mariners improved to an impressive 72-58 after storming back and beating the Detroit Tigers 5-3 last night. Starting pitcher Marco Gonzales upped his record to 10-12 with six innings of three run baseball.

Eugenio Saurez went 2 for 4 with two RBI while hitting his 25th homerun of the season. After winning five of their last six games, they occupy the 2nd Wild Card spot with a 3.5 game lead over the Baltimore Orioles.

Seattle does have a lineup that hovers just above bottom ten as they rank 19th in OPS and 23rd in runs scored. The lanky right Logan Gilbert toes the rubber for Seattle in the series finale.

He is 10-5 on the year with a solid 3.49 ERA and 1.24 WHIP. Gilbert does have some concerning underlying numbers as he ranks in the 2nd percentile in average exit velocity with a robust 46.5% hard hit percentage.

Tigers Tamed Early In Series

The Detroit Tigers disappointing season continues as their record dropped to 50-80 after losing 5-3 to the Seattle Mariners yesterday.

Tyler Alexander only lasted 4.2 innings while allowing two runs and Alex Lange took the loss after giving up two runs in an inning of relief work. No Tiger had an extra-base hit and Jeimer Candelario was the only player with multiple hits, going 2 for 4 with two RBI.

The Tigers young group were not expected to be world-beaters this season, but taking steps back wasn’t expected either. Detroit basically has what amounts to the most pathetic offensive attack in the game as they rank dead last in both runs scored and OPS.

Eduardo Rodriguez will be on the bump for Detroit looking to right the ship and avoid being swept. He is 3-3 on the season with a 3.60 ERA and 1.36 WHIP.

E-Rod struggled early in the season, but has bounced back nicely after being on the shelf for three months. He 2-0 with only one run allowed across 11 innings in his two most recent outings.

Detroit Tigers vs Seattle Mariners Prediction

The Seattle Mariners are road favorites with a money line set at -155 while the Detroit Tigers Tigers sit at +135 with a total of 7.5.

The Seattle Mariners are playing excellent baseball while the Detroit Tigers are about one game ahead of the Oakland Athletics for last place in the American League. The Mariners offense is averaging about a run more per game than the Tigers over the last 30 days.

Gilbert has been great on the road with a 6-1 record and 3.15 ERA across 15 starts away from home. E-Rod has been solid since his return but the Mariners bats have been hot and should be able to do some damage against him.

Both teams also have bullpens that rank in the top ten for ERA. Which made me strongly considered the Tigers team total under 3.5 but it is heavily juiced, which doesn’t leave much for wiggle room. Instead I will roll with the +110 odds on the Seattle run line, counting on the Mariners bats to continue to do their part.

Prediction: Seattle Mariners Run Line -1.5 +110
