The Mariners took the first game of this series 6-2. Cal Raleigh was the star of the show for the Mariners. He was 2-4 in the game with two home runs.

Why The Red Sox Could Cover The Spread

Bello has been solid for the Red Sox this season. He has a 3.66 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, and a .245 oBA. The Red Sox always have a chance to win when Bello is on the mound. He does already have a start against the Mariners, as well. In that start, Bello went five innings, allowed just one run on five hits, and struck out seven. His command was off in the game, but he was still able to shut down the Mariners and lead the Red Sox to a win. If he can have the same type of outing, minus the walks, the Red Sox should be able to win this game, as well.

Why The Mariners Could Cover The Spread

The Mariners are starting Bryce Miller who is having a good season. He has allowed 33 earned runs this season, giving him an ERA just under 4.00. However, 21 of those 33 runs came in three different starts. All the rest of his starts have been very good. That means it is rare that he has a bad start this season. He is coming off one of those bad starts, but he has been able to bounce back before. If he can bounce back and have a good start, the Mariners will cover the spread.

Final Red Sox-Mariners Prediction & Pick

This is an intriguing matchup. However, the Mariners just sold their closer, and they may not be done. The Red Sox, on the other hand, want to make the playoffs. I expect the Red Sox to redeem themselves and get a win in this game. I will take Boston to cover the spread.

Final Red Sox-Mariners Prediction & Pick: Red Sox -1.5 (+164), Under 8 (-110)
