Houston Astros vs Seattle Mariners Prediction
As I said in previous write-ups, the Astros are a tough sell given their pitching situation. The Astros are horrendous right now and Burrows has played a role in the disaster. Burrows has a 5.63 ERA and 1.75 WHIP through 16 innings. The Mariners have used this series to find their bats and this talented lineup is hard to stop once they get going. I have little use for the Astros and these issues on the bump. Give me the Mariners at home with the quick turnaround.
