The Indians Triston McKenzie is 0-4 in his last 4 team starts and his 8.00 ERA during that stretch was a major reason why. McKenzie has made 5-day-game starts in 2021 while registering a lofty 5.91 ERA and 1.59 WHIP during those outings. McKenzie made 1 start against the Mariners this season and it was far from a good outing. During that start at Seattle, McKenzie allowed 5 earned runs in just 4 1/3 innings pitched. Cleveland is coming off last night’s 7-0 win over Seattle. However, the Indians are 0-4 in their last 4 and 2-8 during its previous 10 following a win in their previous game.

Seattle pitcher Yusei Kikuchi has been extremely sharp in 4 starts during the day this season while posting a stellar 2.36 ERA and 0.75 WHIP. He also averaged a sizable 6.7 innings pitched per outing thru those previously mentioned appearances. Kikuchi also has an impressive 1.05 WHIP in all of his 11 starts in 2021. Seattle has lost 2 straight and is 3-0 in their last 3 following back-to-back losses and won by a decisive 4.3 runs per game. Bet on the Mariners for a 5* money line wager.
