This is an 8* play on the Seattle Mariners.

The White Sox are five games out of the AL's final wild-card spot and hurdling four other teams seems pretty much impossible at this point. Seattle will look to bounce back after dropping the opener of this three-game series 4-2 last night and to take advantage of confirmed "gas can" John Danks (6-11, 4.90 ERA) who is 0-2 with an 8.25 ERA over his last two outings. Also note, the M's have to be feeling pretty confident here as they just beat Danks 8-6 on Sunday, shelling the southpaw for seven runs and eight hits over five innings. The Mariners went 0 for 6 with runners in scoring position last night, but facing the volatile Danks tonight will result in a different outcome in those instances. The visitors counter with Taijuan Walker (9-7, 4.73 ERA) who has looked shaky at times this season and dominant in others; note that Walker improved to 2-0 in his last seven starts after Sunday's victory over the White Sox. We're giving Walker the slight nod in this matchup and that's going to be just enough to tip the scales in favor of the visitors today in our opinion, play on SEATTLE.
