The Los Angeles Angels and Seattle Mariners meet Sunday in MLB action at T-Mobile Park. The Los Angeles Angels look for a win after splitting their last 8 games. The Seattle Mariners look for a win after splitting their last 8 games.
The Los Angeles Angels have scored 12 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 4 of their last 8 games. The Angels have won 6 of their last 7 games when scoring 4 or more runs. Shohei Ohtani leads the Angels with 99 hits and 64 RBI, while Jared Walsh and Taylor Ward have combined for 168 hits and 79 RBI. Tucker Davidson gets the ball, and he is 1-2 with a 6.46 ERA and 10 strikeouts this season. This will be Davidson’s first career game against the Mariners.
The Seattle Mariners have scored 6 runs in their last 3 games and 3 or fewer runs in 5 of their last 7 games. The Mariners have lost 8 of their last 9 games when scoring 3 or fewer runs. Ty France leads the Mariners with 108 hits and 56 RBI, while Julio Rodriguez and Adam Frazier have combined for 195 hits and 85 RBI. Marco Gonzales gets the ball, and he is 6-11 with a 3.95 ERA and 65 strikeouts this season. Gonzales is 9-3 with a 3.41 ERA and 96 strikeouts in his career against the Angels.
The Angels are 9-24 in their last 33 road games and 18-45 in their last 63 overall. The Mariners are 4-1 in their last 5 home games and 24-9 in their last 33 overall. The under is 4-1-1 in Angels last 6 overall. The over is 2-0-2 in Mariners last 4 overall. The under is 6-0-2 in the last 8 meetings.
Tucker Davidson hasn’t been good through 16.1 innings this season, and I doubt he’s motivated here after going from a title contender in the Braves to a poverty franchise in the Angels. Marco Gonzales has been respectable this year, and that includes a 3.55 ERA at home. As Ive said before, I want nothing to do with the Angels the rest of the way. The Angels let you down more times than not, and they’re comfortably the least profitable team for bettors this season. Give me the Mariners.
