This is a 1* Free Play on the Seattle Mariners.
I think the home side is worth the price of admission today. The Twins turn to Phil Hughes (8-5, 3.95 ERA) who is coming off three straight poor outings and has struggled in four of his last six starts overall. Hughes was rocked by his former team, allowing seven runs in 6 1/3 innings in Thursday's loss to the Yankees. The Mariners will respond with Chris Young (8-4, 3.11 ERA) who is pitching his best baseball in years. Young held the Astros to two runs over seven innings in a Seattle win in his last start. The right-hander has won three of his last four starts and has given up more than one run just once in his last four outings. At Safeco Park this season he is 5-1 with a very respectable 2.19 ERA over 49 innings. Minnesota has lost five of six and has been struggling in all facets of late. The Twins are a season-worst 10 games under .500 and have dropped 11 of their last 14. Its starting pitching hasn't given it much of a chance with an MLB-worst 6.96 ERA in that stretch while being charged with all 11 losses. All-Star catcher Joe Mauer is on the disabled list which has not helped matters for the Twins. The Mariners have won seven of nine and are in the thick of a realistic playoff race. Seattle is 8-3 versus the Twins at Safeco the last the three seasons. Consider laying the short price to get the Mariners.
