The Seattle Mariners will go for their third consecutive win on Tuesday as they go head-to-head anew with the Tampa Bay Rays at T-Mobile Park. The Mariners (67-65) are still within striking distance of the Houston Astros (70-61) in a frantic two-team battle for the American League West title. Seattle has only won four of their last ten games, but Monday’s 5-1 win over the Rays should help boost their confidence as they prepare for demanding games. The Rays (65-66) dropped one game below .500 following their loss in the series opener. With barely a month left in the regular season, Tampa Bay’s hope of returning to the postseason is dimming as it would take a massive late-season rally for them to cover a 10.5-game lead by the Baltimore Orioles to stay in contention for one of the wild card spots in the American League.

Our Seattle Mariners vs Tampa Bay Rays Prediction

Solid pitching has kept the Mariners in the thick of the playoff race despite getting inconsistent production from their batting corps. Seattle will bank on Logan Gilbert (7-10, 3.21 ERA) to keep the Rays’ offense in check. However, I am not too high on him right now, given that he has allowed 17 runs over his last five starts. The Rays are hitting .228 with 3.9 runs per game after a loss this season, so watch out for a better offense from them in Game 2. Another reason why I feel the Rays are an attractive pick in this match is Jeffrey Spring, who guided Tampa Bay to four wins in his last starts, all while allowing a 3.74 ERA. Our betting prediction for Tampa Bay Rays vs. Seattle Mariners: Back the Rays to win, +135, at BetMGM.
