T.M. Selection: Seattle Mariners.

I like the Seattle Mariners to win this game against the Cleveland Guardians on Sunday. The Mariners have looked good in their games lately, taking 2/3 games against the Guardians so far. They just lost 4-3 to the Guardians last night but I think the Mariners can bounce back here with a win and take this series at home. Both offenses have not been producing a lot of runs here and all 3 games in this series have been very close games so I see this game coming down to who has the better pitching, and I give that edge to the Mariners here in their own ballpark. Robbie Ray (10-8, 3.75 ERA) is up for the Mariners here and he has looked a lot better in his starts lately. He has been really up and down all year but he finally got into his groove in August, giving up no more than 2 runs in any of his 4 starts. He has also pitched 6+ innings in all 4 starts and I expect him to continue pitching well here with this Guardians offense not putting up a ton of runs lately. Aaron Civale (2-5, 5.37 ERA) is up for the Guardians here and he has looked terrible in a majority of his starts this year. He has been giving up a ton of runs in his starts all year and I see him doing that again here. He has been pitching a lot better lately but, he hasn't faced a lot of tough lineups during that time either and I expect the Mariners offense to put up runs on him here. I like the Mariners to win this game.

T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Mariners.
