Twins vs Mariners Prediction

The Mariners are coming into this game playing very well in their recent games. They have won their last 4 straight series and they have a chance to make it 5 with a win over the Red Sox on Sunday. Regardless of that outcome, they have been hitting the ball very well in their games scoring a lot of runs and that is only going to continue as they stay at home here. They are going up against a Twins team that got off to a very hot start to the season but they are starting to lose more games now. They have been playing well in their last few games but they have been a much better team at home this season than on the road and the Mariners have also been a very good team at home. Flexen is starting for them here and he has not been having a great season but neither has Archer who is starting for the Twins here. The Mariners have the edge at home here with this pitching matchup and they will likely score a lot of runs here as they have been doing at home recently. The best bet here is on the Mariners to win this game at home.

Notable Quotes

 
"I don't know if the guys feel like it's a challenge or not, but it's a tough stretch. And not only are we facing good teams, we're facing good individual starting pitchers that are out there on the mound with excellent stuff every night this week. And we've gone out there and I think we've been as good offensively as we've been all year long." - Rocco Baldelli after his team’s win against the Rays on Saturday.
 
 
"At the end of it, we needed to come up big with some hits and we certainly got them. We've been struggling with runners in scoring position here lately, but huge at-bats late in that game, certainly in the ninth inning by Toro and (Moore) to pick us up." - Scott Servais after his team’s win against the Red Sox on Saturday.
