Mariners vs A's prediction
My Mariners vs A's best bet: Athletics Team Total Over 4.5 (-130 at BetMGM)
Logan Evans takes the hill for the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday. The rookie’s 3.64 ERA looks fine on the surface, but his underlying metrics indicate darker days ahead.
His 5.51 xERA and 4.64 xFIP paint the picture that his 5.40 ERA in AAA might be more accurate than what he’s accomplished thus far in the Big Leagues.
The 24-year-old doesn’t miss bats (11th percentile whiff rate), leading to a dastardly low 16.8% K rate (14th percentile).
If you’re going to pitch to contact, then you better induce the soft variety. Not here — Evans ranks in the ninth percentile in both hard-hit rate and average exit velocity.
Tuesday night will be a friendly hitters’ environment with temps in the high 80s and winds of 8 to 9 mph blowing out to left-center field.
Evans’ ERA jumps from 2.60 at home to 4.55 on the road, and his batting average allowed rises from .200 to .323.
The Athletics have hit right-handed pitching well lately (116 wRC+ in July) and have three impact left-handed bats at the top of the order (Lawrence Butler, Nick Kurtz, Tyler Soderstrom) to flummox Evans (.284/.341/.473 splits against lefties).
Mariners vs A's same-game parlay (SGP)
Luis Severino 5+ strikeouts
Nick Kurtz 2+ total bases
Athletics Team Total Over 4.5
Luis Severino isn’t known for his strikeout prowess, but he’s altered that perception lately by recording exactly eight punchouts in two of his last three starts. Seattle has the third-highest K rate (25.8%) against RHP in July.
Kurtz is arguably the hottest hitter in the sport and has recorded 2+ total bases in nine of his last 11 games, so he should pounce upon a favorable matchup.
