Tigers vs. Mariners Best MLB Prop Bets
Tigers Best MLB Prop Bet
- Troy Melton UNDER 2.5 Earned Runs (-146)
As mentioned above, Melton has allowed more than two earned runs in just one start this season. He’s allowed no runs in three starts, a single run in five outings, and a pair of runs in two more.
I’ll take Melton to keep that going against Seattle tonight.
Tigers vs. Mariners Prediction and Pick
Both of these pitchers have been great in recent weeks, and neither of these squads has a particularly strong offense.
Detroit has been hotter as of late, but its last three games were played in hitter-friendly Sacramento.
I’m expecting a low-scoring game tonight in Seattle, with some value on the Tigers as road underdogs as well.
Pick: UNDER 7.5 (-1050
