Ricky's 7* play on SEA.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- The Mariners pitching staff ranks second in the majors with a WHIP of 1.19.

- The Mariners pitching staff is tied for 1st in the majors with 48 quality starts.

- The Minnesota Timberwolves are the only team in the majors averaging double digit strikeouts per game.

Verdict: The value is on the home favorite.
