Detroit Tigers vs Seattle Mariners Prediction
The Tigers are having a good week on the field, but they’re not a group we can trust to sustain things. The Mariners have won their last two games and need to keep it going if they’re going to stay in the playoff race. There were World Series expectations on this group, so this has been a disappointment up to this point. Hancock has been solid through 110.1 innings with a 3.26 ERA and 1.04 WHIP, and he has a 2.93 ERA and .194 batting average allowed at home. It’s go time for the Mariners. No excuses. Give me the M’s at home.
