Seattle Mariners vs Boston Red Sox Prediction & Picks - MLB
by Dan Angell | in MLB Picks
The Seattle Mariners (57-52 SU, 47-62 ATS) conclude their series against the Boston Red Sox (56-50 SU, 48-58 ATS) after splitting the first two games at Fenway Park. Tuesday provided the exact reason why the Red Sox traded for pitching, because the offense just cannot carry this team forever. The Red Sox have allowed 494 runs on the season, which ranks 11th in the American League.
The four teams behind them (Chicago, Los Angeles, Toronto and Oakland) won’t come anywhere close to the postseason, which speaks to just how much Boston’s offense has had to do. Even worse is that it isn’t the pitching staff’s fault. Boston leads the majors with 81 errors, and the Red Sox have allowed 75 unearned runs to cross the plate. A check of ERAs reveals just how bad Boston’s defense has been: the Red Sox jump to sixth in the AL when only earned runs are considered.

Our Seattle Mariners vs Boston Red Sox Prediction
The fact that Seattle, the second-weakest offense in the American League, has scored 17 runs in two games in Boston, speaks to how bad the defense has been. The Mariners have actually whacked the ball on this road trip, although it helps that they’ve gotten to face the White Sox’s awful bullpen and the Red Sox’s poor defenders. Seattle scored just three runs in its previous series, but has exploded for 39 runs in the past five games.
Brayan Bello isn’t likely to stop the onslaught. He’s allowed at least three runs in five of his past six games, and only the Marlins (worst offense in the NL) couldn’t get anything going against him. Right now, the Mariners are confident, and with George Kirby on the mound, Seattle has every reason to be aggressive. Our prediction for Seattle vs. Boston is Mariners Team Total Over 4.5 Runs.
