Seattle at Texas

The Seattle Mariners will go with Jason Vargas in this one, who has been the weak link in their rotation. Vargas enters here with just a 6.92 ERA in his last three starts. The Mariners have won just two of his last seven starts, and they are just 2-5 in his last seven road starts. The Rangers have really poured it on as a big favorite as they have gone 44-15 against a moneyline of -151 to -200, while the Mariners have gone 23-51 when in the same range as a dog. They have also gone just 20-52 with a total set at 9-10.5 indicating they struggle without their top pitchers going. The Rangers also have the Mariner killer on the mound in Vicente Padilla, who has led the Rangers to seven straight wins against the Mariners. I'll go with the Rangers on the runline.
