For tonight I’m using my game 1 system once again.
The Mariners are 6-4 in the last 10. The Tigers are 3-7 in their last 10. (More than 3 games differential)
The pitching mismatch is large. Montero for the Tigers has been getting absolutely destroyed recently. In his last 4 starts he has given up 4, 5, 5, 5 Earned runs, along with 6+ hits in all of those.
Luis Castillo for the Mariners hasn’t been perfect, but his earned runs were 3, 0, 3, 0.
Both of these teams have putrid offensive stats on the season, however: recently the Mariners are getting a lot more RBI’s (last 3 games).
The Tigers are out of the playoffs, the Mariners are fighting to maintain their lead of the AL West.
Mariners -1 alt run line for the juice boost without risking too much on the -1.5 .
