Houston at Seattle

Seattle dropped a heartbreaker to Houston to open the series last night, 4-3. Tonight the Mariner's season is essentially on the line, or at least a chance to make the post-season. This is essentially a playoff game for Seattle. If they lose here, their hopes for a Wild Card are going to be very small. I think they will play this one with that mindset. Houston has not played great baseball of late. Houston over the last month is just a mediocre 14-13, and they certainly can be had here. The difference should be the bullpen where the Seattle pen carries a 3.20 ERA at home, and the Astros just 4.20 on the road. Make the play on Seattle.
