Detroit Tigers vs Seattle Mariners Prediction

The Mariners and plus money is worth a look when you factor in that offense and that home crowd. Once the Mariners get rolling, it can feel like an avalanche. However, I’m just going to back arguably the best pitcher in the sport in Skubal, who has a 2.21 ERA and 0.89 WHIP on the season. Skubal has allowed 25 hits and 9 earned runs in his last 37 innings. In 94 road innings, Skubal has a .196 allowed batting average. Kirby has been hittable all year, and current Tigers are batting .293 with 10 homers in 99 at bats against him. I’m rolling with the Tigers.
