1* Free Play Mariners.

The visiting Texas Rangers will send Miles Mikolas (1-5, 7.48) to the hill to face the Mariners for the first time in his career; note that Mikolas has only recorded two quality outings out of nine starts this season, most recently he's off a loss to the Marlins where allowed three runs over five plus innings. The Mariners counter with Roenis Elias (9-10, 4.09 ERA) who has also struggled of late with his command, but the left-hander owns a highly respectable 2.10 ERA over his last five starts though (and note that the rookie is 1-0 with a 2.92 ERA in two starts versus Texas). The Mariners continue to play strong baseball after a sweep of the Red Sox over the weekend, they won for the 14th time in 18 games Sunday, scoring an 8-6 victory at Fenway. The Rangers meanwhile continue their struggles and are just 7-23 away from home since June 17th. Seattle's starting pitchers have been dominant at Safeco Field in posting a combined 1.61 ERA during an 8-1 stretch; consider paying the reasonable price to get the red hot home side.
