The New York Yankees and Seattle Mariners meet for an evening contest on the west coast at 10:10 p.m. ET on Monday. Seattle is listed as a -115 favorite (risk $115 to win $100) at Caesars Sportsbook, while the Over-Under is set at 8 (see up-to-date'odds for every game this week on our MLB odds page). Before making any Yankees vs. Mariners picks, you NEED to check the MLB predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model.
The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every MLB game 10,000 ti mes, and it is 299-254 on top-rated MLB money-line picks since the start of the 2021 season, returning over $800 for $100 players. This is the same model that pegged the 2021 Atlanta Braves at 10-1 as one of three best bets to win it all last season. Anybody who has followed it has seen profitable returns.
The model knows that the Yankees are among the strongest teams in the American League with a commanding 9.5 game lead in the AL East. The Yankees are buoyed by their hitting led by AL MVP favorite Aaron Judge, who is leading the entire league with 43 home runs and 97 RBIs. Not surprisingly, New York also leads the league in home runs and RBIs though they're only middle of the pack in batting average and hits.
The model also knows that the Mariners rank sixth in team ERA and are the top fielding team in Major League Baseball. Seattle is throwing right hander Logan Gilbert (10-4, 3.09 ERA), who despite giving up six runs in 5.1 innings last week at Yankee Stadium, l eads Seattle's rotation in wins and ERA. The Mariners, who are missing AL Rookie of the Year favorite Julio Rodriguez, are bolstered by the weekend return of outfielder Mitch Haniger, who missed nearly four months due to injury.
