The set-up
Here is a surprise. The Mariners are 8-2, and recently swept the Rays, while the touted White Sox are 4-6. This game features two strong starters; Kikuchi for Seattle, and Rodon for the White Sox. Looking at their last 7 starts, Rodon and Kikuchi have similar numbers. Rodon really has been a monster on the mound in June with WHIP of .89 and more than 8 strikeouts per game over his last 6 outings. Kikuchi has averaged 6+ inning since the beginning of May, with a WHIP of 1.00.
Ready for a second surprise? The Mariners bullpen has outperformed the Sox’ pen of late. The White Sox have struggled in all respects on a forgettable road trip.
The wager
Both starters have a history of lengthy outings. I am looking for Seattle to keep their momentum with Kikuchi on the hill. White sox are a favorite. Take Seattle +1 ½.
