Luis Castillo typically dominates at home, and the Mariners gained a lot of momentum before the All-Star Break. I expect that to carry over here against Tigers lefty Eduardo Rodriguez, who is making his second start since recovering from a finger injury. Seattle has been a Top-10 offense versus lefties since June 1.
The Mariners entered the All-Star break having won seven of their last 10 games to get back over .500 for the season. They are 24-20 at home, which is where they will take on the Tigers on Friday. They will also deploy their ace Luis Castillo, who has a 2.44 ERA and a 0.93 WHIP at home. The Tigers have already scored the third-fewest runs in baseball, so with Castillo on the mound, don’t expect them to be able to score enough to come away with a win.
