T.M. Selection: Astros/Mariners UNDER.

I am on the under in the Houston Astros vs Seattle Mariners game on Saturday. The Astros lost the 1st game of this series yesterday with Verlander starting and they looked terrible in that game. They had plenty of chances to score runs in that game but couldn't bring them in and their offense hasn't looked great in many of their games lately. They have only put up 3 runs total in their 2 most recent games but they have also put up 2 runs or less in 3/4 of their previous 4 games. I think their offense has been cooling off lately and I don't expect to see them put up a ton of runs here in this road game. Logan Gilbert (4-2, 2.60 ERA) is up for the Mariners here and he has looked great in his starts this year. He hasn't been pitching at his best lately but he still has only had 1 start where he gave up more than 3 runs and he has been a really consistently good pitcher for them all year. The Astros offense hasn't been great lately and I think he will keep them in check here with a good performance in this game. Jose Urquidy (4-1, 4.24 ERA) is up for the Astros here and he didn't look great at the beginning of the year but he has been pitching a lot better lately and I think he is going to continue to pitch well in his starts. His team needs a good performance from him after that loss yesterday and I expect him to deliver since he has only had 1 really bad start this year. I think these pitchers can keep this game low scoring and I don't see either offense putting up a ton of runs here. I like the under in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Astros.
