by Joseph King in Baseball Predictions
Game one in the American League Division Series sees the Houston Astros hosting the Seattle Mariners at Minute Maid Park in downtown Houston. The Astros cruised to the AL West crown, finishing with a regular season record of 106-56, while the Mariners had to battle it out with the Toronto Blue Jays in the Wild Card series for their spot in the ALDS. Seattle would eventually win that best-of-three series two games to zero to finally end their playoff drought and reach this stage for the first time since 2001. The Mariners finished as runners-up to the Astros in the AL West in the regular season with a record of 90-72.

Houston Astros - Seattle Mariners: Form Analysis
The Mariners have shown good consistency both home and away this season and boast very similar records in that respect. They are 44-37 on the road and come into this game on the back of a five game winning streak and having won seven of their last 10 games. The Astros will be hoping their strong home field advantage will see them over the line here and their 55-26 record at Minute Maid Park is the second best mark in the American League. Houston also comes into this game in good form having won their last two games over the Phillies and seven of their last 10 as well.

Gilbert has had success against the Astros this season and the Mariners are 2-2 against Houston with Gilbert on the mound. On the other side, ace Justin Verlander gets the nod for the Astros who is coming off one of the best seasons of his storied career. The 39-year-old posted an 18-4 record and an outrageous ERA of 1.75, a career best.

Our Houston Astros vs Seattle Mariners Prediction
We’re going to back the Seattle Mariners on the +1.5 point spread as our bet for this game. This means that if Seattle loses by a margin of one run we will still cash our bet. The visitors come into this game hot thanks to their Wild Card sweep of the Blue Jays and will likely be fired up after having to wait over 20 years to get another shot at the playoffs. With Gilbert on the mound who has had success against this Houston lineup this season, the Mariners are live dogs here and should at least be able to keep this one competitive.
