The Lean
The Mariners are favored with a moneyline of -183, while the Red Sox are at +151. Based on the data, the Mariners have a slight edge in pitching with a lower batting average against and more quality starts. My model projects a Mariners win with a score of 5-3. The recommendation is to pick the Mariners to win straight up.
The over/under line is set at 7.5. Both teams have similar earned run averages, but the Mariners’ offense ranks higher in home runs and doubles. My model projects a total score of 8 runs. The recommendation is to take the over for this game.
Boston heads into Tuesday’s finale in Seattle after rookie Roman Anthony smashed his first career homer—an inning-opening blast off Logan Gilbert—to spark Monday’s 2-0 win. The club, now winners of six straight, leaned on Lucas Giolito for six shutout innings and ten strikeouts before Anthony’s historic swing.
Red Sox Youth Movement
Manager Alex Cora hasn’t hesitated to mix rookies Anthony, Marcelo Mayer and Kristian Campbell alongside veterans. Cora praised the group’s “clean baseball,” while shortstop Trevor Story admitted Devers’ trade “came out of nowhere.” For full roster depth and daily lineup updates, check the Scores and Stats MLB teams hub.
Mariners’ Response
Seattle snapped its own three-game skid but went 1-for-9 with RISP Monday. Returning ace Logan Gilbert struck out ten over five innings in his first outing since April. The M’s need more timely hits against Boston’s bullpen, which has been spotless in this series.
Pitching Duel
The Red Sox call on Walker Buehler (5-4, 5.01 ERA), fresh off seven innings of three-run ball with seven punch-outs versus Tampa Bay. Opposing him, Bryan Woo (5-4, 3.39 ERA) has exceeded six innings in each of his 13 starts but dropped his last two. Live first-pitch odds are on the Scores and Stats MLB odds board.
