Mariners vs Yankees Prediction

The current betting odds have the Yankees listed as a favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Yankees have looked really good in their games this season with their 66-52 record overall which has them right near the top of the AL East. They have looked good in their own ballpark too with their 29-26 home record this season. Meanwhile, the Mariners haven't looked good in their games this season with their 56-63 record overall which has them right in the middle of the AL West. They have been a terrible road team too with their 23-34 road record this year. The Mariners have had every chance to take over this weak division this season, but lately they have looked terrible. They are 3-7 in their last 10 games with one of the worst offenses in the league and continue to slide down the standings. The Yankees are only 5-5 in their last 10 games, but they have been a steady team in the AL all season and will have some momentum from a series win over the Braves. The Yankees are going with Weathers in this one and he hasn't looked bad this season. He is 5-7 with a 3.79 ERA and he has looked a lot better in his starts lately. He is coming off another great start giving up no runs which has been becoming a common theme for him lately. The team has also had more success with him, winning 4 of their last 5 games with him starting. The Mariners are going with Woo in this one and he hasn't looked great this season. He is 8-8 with a 4.31 ERA and the Mariners haven't had much success with him lately. They have lost 2 of their last 3 games with him starting and even though he gave up no runs in his last start, that hasn't been a common theme for him. Look for the Yankees to take advantage of this pitching matchup as the Mariners continue to slide down the standings with no offense. The best way to place a bet here is on the Yankees to win this game.

Notable Quotes


“We had him on the ropes early, and we weren’t able to convert it. At that point, he was able to settle in. He had a pretty good changeup today, kept us off-guard going back-and-forth with that. Not able to square anything up, not able to find barrels consistently. When we did find some barrels, it seemed like there was a guy standing there. It’s frustrating.” - Dan Wilson after his team’s loss against the Rays in their game on Sunday. 


“We’ve got to do more and put some runs on. But unlike some of the other games where we’ve been shut down, I do feel like we were getting some good swings off them. We had better at-bats as a club, but we’ve still got to find a way to push them across.” - Aaron Boone after his team’s loss against the Braves in their game on Sunday.
