(MLB) Seattle vs. Houston,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -141.00 Seattle (Away)
Result: Loss
8* MARINERS RUNILNE (DESTRUCTION)

Seattle was tied 2-2 going into the bottom of the 8th with the Astros last night, but "runline" bettors would have been frustrated for sure after the Mariners would go on to lose by a score of 4-2. Justin Verlander is 13-3 with a 1.86 ERA for the Tigers. He's won 5 straight with a 0.79 ERA over that span. Can anyone say letdown spot? I say regression is finally in order here. Robbie Ray is just 8-7 with a 3.90 ERA for the Mariners, but he was 4-0 with a 1.75 ERA over 8 starts prior to facing Houston at home last Sunday, allowing 6 runs over 3 innings. Look for Ray to respond here though and get a little revenge on the road. I say Verlander finally takes a step back, while I look for Ray to bounce back; while the outright win isn't out of the question, the official play is to grab the Mariners on the runline option!
