In this article, we will formulate a White Sox vs Mariners prediction for this MLB game on Tuesday, August 5, at T-Mobile Park in Seattle, Washington. Let’s take a look at the prediction for this MLB matchup.

Chicago White Sox Betting Preview

The Chicago White Sox (42-70, 18-38 Away) bounced back from a series loss to their city rivals Chicago Cubs, with a pair of victories over the Philadelphia Phillies and Los Angeles Angels. The White Sox were hoping to sweep the Angels but lost Game 3 on Sunday, 8-5. Colson Montgomery led the offense with four RBI, while Sean Burke pitched for 5.0 innings in a no-decision, allowing three runs on five hits with seven strikeouts and two walks. Tyler Alexander took the loss.

This season, the White Sox average 3.82 runs per game (27th in the MLB) on a .230/.300/.367 triple-slash. When it comes to pitching, the White Sox’s staff has a 4.08 ERA (18th) and 1.36 WHIP (25th). Luis Robert Jr. leads the White Sox with a .219 batting average, 11 home runs, and 45 RBI this season.

Davis Martin will take the mound for the White Sox on Tuesday. The 28-year-old right-hander has a 3-8 record in 15 starts this year with a 3.84 ERA and 1.26 WHIP in 91.1 innings.

Seattle Mariners Betting Preview

The Seattle Mariners (60-53, 31-25 Home) were winless in three straight series before defeating the Texas Rangers. Seattle clinched that series with a narrow 5-4 victory on Sunday, despite not scoring since the 4th inning. Julio Rodriguez and J.P. Crawford led the offense with two RBI apiece, while Logan Evans got the win after allowing three runs on five hits with three strikeouts and no walks in 5.0 innings.

This year, the Mariners average 4.52 runs per game (11th in the MLB) on a .243/.319/.410 triple-slash. When it comes to pitching, the Mariners’ staff has a 3.84 ERA (11th) and 1.24 WHIP (10th). Cal Raleigh leads the Mariners with a .252 batting average, 42 home runs, and 88 RBI this season.

The projected starting pitcher for the Mariners is Bryan Woo, who is 8-6 in 21 starts this season, with a 3.11 ERA and 0.97 WHIP in 133.0 innings.

Why the Mariners will cover

  • The White Sox have lost each of their last five games against AL West opponents following a road loss.
  • The home team has won five of the Mariners’ last six games.
  • The White Sox have failed to cover the run line in four of their last five games as underdogs against the Mariners following a loss.
  • The White Sox have trailed after 5 innings in three of their last four road games against opponents that held a winning record.

Total Runs Facts

  • Each of the Mariners’ last five night games against American League opponents have gone UNDER the total runs line.
  • The ‘Inning 1 UNDER 0.5 runs’ market has hit in each of the Mariners’ last 12 games at T-Mobile Park.
  • The ‘Inning 1 UNDER 0.5 runs’ market has hit in 14 of the White Sox’s last 15 games at T-Mobile Park.

Matchup/League Facts

  • The Mariners rank T4th in the league for home runs this season (159).
  • The Mariners rank 4th in the league for steals this season (111).
  • The White Sox rank 29th in the league for slugging percentage this season (.367).
  • The White Sox rank 29th in the league for walks allowed this season (410).

White Sox vs Mariners Prediction

The Mariners won eight of the previous ten H2H encounters, including five of the last six, while this season, Seattle leads the series 2-1. I am backing the M’s to win and cover a -1.5 run line here, as I expect Bryan Woo to respond from recent struggles and dominate the White Sox. Woo secured only one win in July and allowed multiple runs in his last three starts, but this matchup is favorable for him. Davis Martin, on the other hand, surrendered multiple runs in each of his previous seven starts, and I am backing the Mariners to score 3+ against him on Tuesday. Back Seattle to win and cover.

Oliver Zivic's Pick: Mariners -1.5
