by Joseph King | in MLB Prediction
An American League matchup in Major League Baseball on Sunday night sees the Seattle Mariners take on the Cleveland Guardians at T-Mobile Park. Both teams have a lot on the line as we inch ever closer to the postseason. Cleveland is involved in a tight battle for the AL Central crown with the Twins and the White Sox whom they lead by three and five games, respectively. Their 69-58 record is enough for the top spot in a closely contested division. The Mariners, on the other hand, have to contend with one of baseball’s best teams in the Houston Astros in the AL West. Seattle is putting together a solid season with their 68-56 record placing them second behind the Astros and puts them in position to hold the final Wild Card spot. As things currently stand, the Mariners lead the Orioles by just a game and a half in the Wild Card race.

Seattle Mariners & Cleveland Guardians Squad Analysis
Taking the mound for the Seattle Mariners is Robbie Ray who will attempt to improve upon his 10-8 record with a 3.75 ERA. The lefty has had some excellent stuff in his last few appearances and has struck out 34 total batters over his last four starts, totaling 26 innings of work. Getting the start for the visiting Guardians is Aaron Civale who’s 2-5 record with 5.37 ERA can be deceiving. Civale has been slowly grinding down that ERA number after a disastrous start put the fifth-year pro in a bad spot. Civale has been solid in his recent outings and has really gotten the home run ball under control, not allowing a single homer in his last four starts.
Seattle Mariners - Cleveland Guardians Key Points
- Guardians’ starter Aaron Civale has given up two earned runs or fewer in his last four starts.
- The Guardians have been one of the worst hitting teams against left-handed pitchers this season with a team OPS of just .637, the second-lowest in the MLB.
- Mariners’ lefty Robbie Ray has been sharp in his last four starts, giving up two earned runs or fewer in his last four outings.
- This is the first series between these two teams this season; Seattle won the first two games before Cleveland responded with a 4-3 win in game three.
- All three games of the series have seen a total of 7 runs or fewer.

Our Seattle Mariners vs Cleveland Guardians Prediction
We’re going to back under 7 runs as our bet for this game. Both pitchers come into this game in great form and we should be in for a pitchers duel here. The Guardians have been terrible against lefties this season and could really struggle here against Robbie Ray who has been in a nice groove lately. While Aaron Civale’s ERA may look concerning, the 27-year-old has been consistently improving throughout the season after a rough start. Back both pitchers to show up with the goods here in what should be another tightly contested matchup.
