Seattle at Texas

Seattle is really struggling and they face their second rookie starter in three days. They lost to the first and I think they lose again here. John Koronka has a 3.38 home ERA while his Seattle counterpart Felix Hernandez boasts a 7.36 road ERA. Throw in the fact that Texas can hit and Seattle can't, and we have a great play on the home team here. Texas is scoring 4.8 per game at home and 4.9 vs. right handed starters. Seattle is scoring 4.4 on the road and 3.1 vs. left-handed starters. The lefty thing really kills them as they are 5-14 vs. left handed starters this year. The Mariners are 1-6 in their last seven games and 8-17 on the road while Texas is 5-2 in their past seven and 15-15 at home. Over the past two seasons, Seattle is 10-35 as a road dog of +125 to +175 including 0-7 in the +151 to +175 range. Texas to close it out.
