Two American League teams fighting for playoff positioning meet in Cleveland as the Guardians<\/a> host the Seattle Mariners<\/a> for the first game of a weekend series. Seattle just took two of three from the San Diego Padres<\/a> and holds the third wild card spot while also being two games behind the Houston Astros<\/a> in the AL West. Cleveland is five games out of a wild card spot and has a chance to directly chip away at Seattle’s place in the playoff race, but was held scoreless for three games before Wednesday’s 4-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays<\/a>. First pitch is scheduled for 7:10 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n Those interested in\u00a0MLB betting<\/a>\u00a0at the\u00a0top sportsbooks<\/a>\u00a0can get the latest Guardians vs. Mariners odds, predictions and player props from the SportsLine Projection Model<\/a>, which simulates every game 10,000 times.<\/p>\n Logan Allen<\/a> (7-10, 4.35 ERA) gets the ball for Cleveland. It’s been a month to the day since the southpaw logged a win. Seattle counters with George Kirby<\/a> (8-6, 4.05). The righty control artist hasn’t pitched to his usual standards due to injury, but his ERA has been just hair above 3 over the last month.\u00a0<\/p>\n Allen is set at over\/under 4.5 strikeouts (Over -120, Under -106) at\u00a0FanDuel Sportsbook<\/a>. Kirby is set at 5.5 (Over -132, Under +100). The SportsLine Projection Model only has slight leans on either strikeout prop, but it does rate Kirby Over 1.5 earned runs 4 stars out of a possible 5.\u00a0<\/p>\n Cal Raleigh<\/a> leads MLB with 50 home runs and is the favorite to go deep on the FanDuel odds board at +255. He’s followed by Eugenio Suarez<\/a> (+390), Julio Rodriguez<\/a> (+470), Randy Arozarena<\/a> (+500), Kyle Manzardo<\/a> (+520) and Jose Ramirez<\/a> (+540).<\/p>\n Here are the SportsLine Projection Model’s picks for Guardians vs. Mariners on Friday:<\/p>\n SEATTLE MARINERS at CLEVELAND GUARDIANS | 8\/29 | 7:10 PM ET<\/p>\n Money line Run line Over\/Under Projected score: Mariners 5.2, Guardians 4.0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Imagn Images Two American League teams fighting for playoff positioning meet in Cleveland as the Guardians host the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":280040,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2380],"tags":[5,7990,684,3297,43510,135,51,2565,92,465,43512,538,43508,43515,54,865,43511,3992,1389,4578,43513,43509,26332,43514,4,163,222,7234,164,27387,29804,1456,18,65,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-280039","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cleveland-guardians","8":"tag-baseball","9":"tag-baseball-betting","10":"tag-betting","11":"tag-cal-raleigh","12":"tag-cal-raleigh-props","13":"tag-cleveland","14":"tag-cleveland-guardians","15":"tag-clevelandguardians","16":"tag-eugenio-suarez","17":"tag-george-kirby","18":"tag-george-kirby-props","19":"tag-guardians","20":"tag-guardians-odds","21":"tag-guardians-props","22":"tag-houston-astros","23":"tag-jose-ramirez","24":"tag-jose-ramirez-props","25":"tag-julio-rodriguez","26":"tag-kyle-manzardo","27":"tag-logan-allen","28":"tag-logan-allen-props","29":"tag-mariners-guardians-picks","30":"tag-mariners-odds","31":"tag-mariners-props","32":"tag-mlb","33":"tag-mlb-best-bets","34":"tag-mlb-bets","35":"tag-mlb-odds","36":"tag-mlb-picks","37":"tag-mlb-player-props","38":"tag-mlb-predictions","39":"tag-randy-arozarena","40":"tag-san-diego-padres","41":"tag-seattle-mariners","42":"tag-tampa-bay-rays"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280039","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=280039"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280039\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/280040"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=280039"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=280039"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=280039"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
