This is an 8* on SEATTLE

Seattle should not have much difficulty beating who we feel is the worst team in baseball. Detroit has been outscored by 69 runs its 40 games this year and they’ve been particularly hideous on the road, scoring just 3.4 runs/game while giving up an average of 5.8. The weekend saw the Tigers lose two of three at home vs. the Cubs. Seattle took the final three games of a four-game series with Cleveland. They held the Indians to 12 runs for the series. Detroit is last in the American League in runs scored, so look for a solid outing Monday from the Mariners’ Yusei Kikuchi, who over his last three starts has delivered a 2.66 ERA and 0.79 WHIP. Those three starts have seen Kikuchi allow only six runs and 12 hits in 20 ⅓ innings. He had 11 strikeouts in his most recent start, which was against the Dodgers. Yes, Casey Mize is also coming off three straight quality starts for the Tigers. But getting to play against the Tigers at this price seems almost too good to be true. They are a really bad team and just 7-20 their last 27 games in Seattle. Play on SEATTLE
