Seattle Mariners at Detroit Tigers: Weather

Seattle Mariners at Detroit Tigers: Projected Starting Pitchers

LHP Marco Gonzales vs. RHP Edwin Jackson

Gonzales gets to face a Tigers lineup that was already flailing before trading Nicholas Castellanos to the Cubs.

  • The left-hander typically performs better away from T-Mobile Park (3.88 ERA), and Comerica Park typically plays toward pitchers.

The journeyman Jackson is basically just eating innings for Detroit at this point, and his opponent always makes for a solid wager.

  • We should call E-Jax HR-Jax: He has allowed 3.38 big flies per nine innings across his nine appearances this year.

Seattle Mariners at Detroit Tigers: By the Numbers

  • Seattle has won all five clashes with Detroit this year, outscoring the Tigers 35-13.
  • Capped by his three-homer outing Tuesday, Kyle Seager has thrived in the second half (.290/.347/.613) with eight homers and 16 RBI. I like his chances to build on that while staring down a homer-prone righty Wednesday.

  • Despite their down season, the M's are tied for the 10th-highest wRC+ versus righties (101, just above league average). Conversely, the Tigers own the sixth-worst wRC+ versus left-handers (88).
  • Seattle ranks eighth with a .772 OPS on the road. Detroit's home OPS slots in 28th at .672.
