Seattle Mariners vs Houston Astros Prediction: Mariners to get a win here

Tuesday, the MLB action between the Seattle Mariners and Houston Astros will take place at T-Mobile Park. Let’s take a look at this game from a betting perspective and make a prediction.

Seattle Mariners played the Washington Nationals in their last series, and in that series, they lost. In games one and two, this team lost 6-1 and 3-1, and then in game 3, they did well to avoid a sweep with a 5-9 win. In the meantime, the Seattle Mariners lost to the New York Yankees and Baltimore Orioles in the prior series, but they did well in picking up a win against the New York Yankees. Seattle Mariners have a 28-26 record this season and are 6th in the American League standings.

Houston Astros are coming off a series against the Oakland Athletics, and they won that series. In game one, the Houston Astros secured a 3-6 win, and then in game 2, Oakland Athletics leveled the scores. However, the Houston Astros were brilliant in the finale, securing a 2-5 win. In the MLB this season, Houston Astros have a 24-29 record and are seated 11th in the MLB American League standings. 

I am backing the Seattle Mariners. Though the Houston Astros come in as favorites, I do not trust them because they have improved play lately. This should be competitive regardless, but given the Mariners are coming from a poor performance against the Nationals, I expect them to put on more performance here and win.
