Red Sox vs Mariners Prediction

The Red Sox are coming into this game playing very well in their recent games. They have been winning a lot of games and they are scoring a lot of runs in these games as well. They just had their win streak snapped recently but after a very bad start to the season they have turned things around now. They are going up against a Mariners team that has also been starting to heat up recently, winning a lot of their games by scoring runs and they have been a great team at home this season. They have Kirby on the mound here and he has also been very good this season but the Red Sox have Wacha starting here and he has been lights out all season. He was very good to start the season, got injured and missed some time but he is back now and coming off of another great start. The Red Sox have rarely lost with him on the mound this season as well and he is a lot more reliable than Kirby who is still in his rookie season. The best bet here is on the Red Sox to stay hot and win this game.

Notable Quotes

 
"I didn't know I had so many strikeouts until after the game. I wasn't really focused on that at all. I was focused on competing and trying to put us in the best position to win, and I wasn't able to do that." - Nick Pivetta after their loss against the Angels on Thursday.
 
 
"You have to eventually (win in Houston) or we're never going to win the West. That's just where it's at." - Scott Servais after his team’s win against the Astros on Wednesday.
