The Major League Baseball is back in action on Wednesday evening as the Seattle Mariners grapple with the Minnesota Twins at Target Field in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This is the 2nd game of a three-game series.
Seattle Marines Form
The Marines are one of the teams that had a great start of the season. Moreover, their early record was at 13-2 during the first 15 games in the season. However, they were not able to maintain that form as they dropped to a 15-39 so far this season. Also, it seems that their pitching is not improving as they have been constantly dropping their form. Therefore, they need to improve in this area if they want to get back into the mix for a postseason spot.
On the offensive side of the game, the Marines score an average of 5.14 runs per game. Therefore this is enough for the 9th spot in the league in scoring.
On the mound, the Marines are 29th in the league in ERA at 5.29, while also ranking 28th in WHIP at 1.46 and 26th in K’s with 530.
Minnesota Twins Form
The Twins are one of those teams that entered the season with an improved squad. Moreover, the general expectation was that this Minnesota team will do good this season. However, not many experts and pundits proposed that they will be at 43-21 so far this season. The odds were not making them favourites in much of the games this season, however, the Twins have been a regular betting pick for me this season.
Furthermore, the Twins lead the American League Central by 10.5 games over the Cleveland Indians. This is probably the best offensive team in the MLB at the moment and I look forward to seeing how they will play in the postseason.
On the offensive side of the game, the Twins score an average of 5.97 runs per game which is the 1st record in the league in scoring. Also, they are 1st in hitting at .274 and 2nd in homers with 125. On the mound, they are the 7th in the league in ERA at 3.97, while also being 8th in WHIP at 1.26 and 18th in K’s with 556.
Prediction
This one will be an easy choice for me. The Twins are the better team and they have been in a commanding form so far this season. This team is one of the main candidates to win the World Series and I expect them to be in the mix. On the other side, the Marines are a good team but they are not playing well at the moment. And while they will probably improve, this is not the game for them to expect anything. Take Minnesota to win this one easily.
