Seattle Mariners at Detroit Tigers Preview & Picks

Seattle are tipped to wrap up this series on the road.

Mariners starter Bryce Miller has had some issues this year, but the bullpen has seen limited use over the past couple of games and can once again help finish the job late on.

  • Seattle Mariners are 8-1 in their last 9 road games
  • Seattle Mariners are 6-1 in the previous 7 meetings
  • The 2 starting pitchers have a combined ERA of 8.68

Head To Head

  • Detroit Tigers lead the all-time series 235-217-1
  • Seattle Mariners lead this MLB Playoffs series 2-1
  • Seattle Mariners won 8-4 when the two teams last met on October 6

Seattle Mariners Form

Seattle booked their spot in the playoffs by putting together a 90-72 record to finish top of the AL West, securing a first-round bye.

The Mariners sealed the division title during a fantastic run of form that saw them win 17 times during an 18-game spell between September 6-25

That run saw them go a perfect 10-0 at home as they swept St Louis in three games, the Los Angeles Angels in four and Colorado in three.

With the division title secure, Seattle was able to take their foot off the gas in the final regular season series, resulting in 3-2, 5-3 and 6-1 defeats to the Los Angeles Dodgers.

The Mariners' losing run reached four games as they lost the playoff opener to Detroit, 3-2, but they have rallied to take the last two meetings, 3-2 and 8-4.

Detroit Tigers Form

Detroit secured their place in the postseason by compiling an 87-75 record to finish second in the AL Central standings.

The Tigers would have won their division had it not been for a major slump in form during the second half of September that saw them lose eight straight games; five of them against Cleveland.

Those losses handed the Guardians top spot by just one game, and set up a Wild Card series between the two teams.

Detroit enjoyed a winning start to that series in Cleveland as they won 2-1, and then they rallied from a 6-1 defeat in Game 2 with a series-clinching 6-3 victory.

The Tigers backed that up with a 3-2 victory in the opening game of this series with Seattle, only to then lose 3-2 and 8-4 to find themselves on the brink of elimination.

Verdict

Seattle have taken over the series with back-to-back wins, and they are now backed to complete the job.

A fresh and largely rested bullpen can see them over the line in Detroit.
