Mariners vs. Padres Starting Pitchers
Logan Gilbert (Mariners)
It is very nice seeing MLB games between the AL and NL in the modern state of the league. When there are two teams both out West that rarely face one another, it adds some more excitement for fans and players alike. Game one of the series between the Seattle Mariners and San Diego Padres will feature two pitchers who are very good, but do not have the best MLB stats. The low total for the game expects Tuesday night to be low-scoring. Logan Gilbert will take the mound for the Mariners.
Gilbert will be making his seventh start of the season on the road. He comes into the contest with a 3-3 record, 4.08 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, and 78 strikeouts through 64.0 innings pitched. The 26-year-old is coming off his worst start of the year, against the Bronx Bombers, also known as the New York Yankees. He allowed five runs and gave up two home runs in four innings. Gilbert looks to bounce back in this one, although the Seattle Mariners odds are against him.
Joe Musgrove (Padres)
What an interesting year it has been for the San Diego Padres. They have the worst percentage of games that hit the over, even with their star-studded offense. There is a lot to figure out and maybe Joe Musgrove can help with that.
As the Padres split the series against the Chicago Cubs, the Mariners are coming off a full day of rest. Despite that, the San Diego Padres roster is so strong that they will still be favored. Musgrove is 3-2 with a 4.71 ERA, 1.38 WHIP, and has 34 strikeouts through 36.1 innings pitched. He missed some time with an injury, but he is back to normal. Musgrove has allowed just one earned run in his last 12.1 innings pitched.
