#925 4% Seattle w/Gilbert -108 Texas

The Mariners have won 5 of 6 sweeping the Reds and taking 2 of 3 vs the Rockies with the loss coming in a DH split. While Seattle’s hitting numbers are poot season-to-date the top of the order as heated up and they are hitting .285 in their L6 games. Gilbert is making his 5th start and in three of those, including the L2 he has gone at least 6 2/3 innings and allowed just one run while posting a 29-4 K-W ratio. Rangers started the season winning 6 of 8 but have gone 6-8 since. Texas played at Houston, at Detroit and at Atlanta and then had yesterday off. When teams return home off a long road trip and have a day rest they perform poorly as they need the off day to return to their family routine.

Home with rest off at least 7 road games are 83-109 (43.5%) with an avg line of -139 (-20% ROI).

As a Home Dog they are 15-44 (25.4%) with  a-43.3% ROI

Using full game as the Mariners bullpen is superior and rested – Mariners starters with a 1.44 ERA the L10 games (that’s why they are 2-9-1 O/U since April 8th)
