Seattle Mariners: Rolling with Reinforcements
The Mariners’ front office clearly came to play at the trade deadline and it’s already paying off. Eugenio Suárez and Josh Naylor, both acquired from Arizona in separate deals, made immediate noise Tuesday night, launching two clutch homers that helped crush the White Sox 8-3.
Seattle is now 4-1 on their current homestand and has surged into the second AL Wild Card spot. The energy is different. The lineup looks deeper, more dynamic, and manager Dan Wilson is clearly loving the mix of pop and hustle from his new crew.
Bryan Woo was surgical in Tuesday’s win, but now it’s George Kirby’s turn. Kirby (6-5, 4.13 ERA) has had a bit of a rollercoaster year, but he was sharp in his last outing, six scoreless innings versus Texas. He’s been reliable against the White Sox in his career, sporting a 1-0 record with a 2.13 ERA across two starts.
Seattle Player Prop Pick: Josh Naylor to hit a home run
Naylor’s seeing the ball well and has quickly settled into a groove in his new home. Against a hittable arm like Cannon, he’s worth a swing.
Chicago White Sox: Learning Lessons, Still Losing Games
Despite dropping two straight, the White Sox have quietly gone 10-6 since the All-Star break. Still, there’s a noticeable gap when they face playoff-caliber clubs, Tuesday night was a reminder of that. Solo homers from Lenyn Sosa, Luis Robert Jr. (his 100th career shot), and Colson Montgomery made the score respectable late, but the game had long been out of reach.
Jonathan Cannon (4-8, 4.77 ERA) will try to stop the bleeding. His last outing? A six-run drubbing at the hands of Philly. He’s looked decent against Seattle before (1.29 ERA in one start), but this version of the Mariners is far scarier.
White Sox Player Prop Pick: Luis Robert Jr. Over 0.5 HRs
He’s heating up again, and with 100 dingers under his belt, don’t be surprised if he adds No. 101 at T-Mobile Park.
Prediction & Betting Insight
Kirby dominates, Naylor goes deep, and Seattle keeps climbing while Chicago’s lessons keep piling up.
Final Score Prediction: Mariners 6, White Sox 2
Lean: Seattle -1.5 (-115)
