The Cleveland Guardians (66-56) and Seattle Mariners (67-57) open a 4-game series at T-Mobile Park. Thursday’s afternoon opener is slated for 4:10 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Guardians vs. Mariners'odds with MLB picks and predictions.
Season series: first meeting. Seattle took 4-of-7 games from Cleveland in 2021.
The Guardians arrive in Seattle off a pair of wins in as many tries at San Diego. Cleveland pitching held the Padres to just 1 run in that series, and the Guardians have logged a 2.00 ERA, 0.92 WHIP since Aug. 6.
The Mariners went 11-5 over a 16-game stretch from Aug. 2-19. But Seattle is just 1-3 – with a flimsy .670 OPS – in 4 games since. The Mariners have, however, pitched their way to a 17-8 mark over their last 25 games at home. Over that span, Seattle has registered a 3.40 ERA.
