(MLB) Seattle vs. Houston,
Money Line: -155.00 Houston (Home)
Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: Houston Astros.

I like the Houston Astros to win this game against the Seattle Mariners on Monday. The Astros lost 1 game to the Royals over the weekend but they have been on a roll lately and that was their only loss in their previous 7 games. They have looked really good and they really racked up the runs in those 2 games they won against the Royals. The Astros have been putting up a ton of runs and I think they are going to be out for their revenge here. The Mariners just won a series in their ballpark against the Astros less than 2 weeks ago and I think the Astros are going to try and get those wins back here in their ballpark now. The Astros did play a home series against the Mariners earlier this year and they swept the Mariners then so I expect the Mariners to struggle in this road series again since they have been struggling in road games all year too. Robbie Ray (4-6, 4.93 ERA) is up for the Mariners here and he hasn't looked good this year. He has had some really bad starts this year but lately he has looked terrible, giving up 3+ runs in 4 starts in a row now and that has been consistent over his previous 7 starts too. He has been struggling in every start and I expect this game to be no different for him, especially with the bats so hot for the Astros now. Cristian Javier (3-2, 2.41 ERA) is up for the Astros here and he has looked great this year. He has only had 1 bad start this year while all his other starts saw him only giving up 1 or no runs in his starts, with the odd game where he gave up 2. I think he has looked great all year and I expect him to continue pitching well here. I think the Astros are going to continue to roll here. I like the Astros to win this game.

T.M. Prediction: 6-2 Astros.
