Mariners vs Astros
Can Seattle’s hot streak outshine Houston’s home-field heat?

Mariners (28-20) VS Astros (25-24)
23 May 2025 | 9:10 PM ET | Minute Maid Park, Houston

The Mariners come into this matchup riding a decent wave of momentum, despite dropping the first game of this series, and looking like a team on the rise in the AL West. Their pitching staff, led by a strong bullpen, has given them a real edge lately, especially against a Houston lineup that’s missing key contributors and struggling to generate consistent offense. With the Astros dealing with some injuries and their top bats in a bit of a slump, Seattle’s recent form and pitching depth make them a live underdog at plus money.
Honestly, the way the Mariners have been rolling and with the Astros not at full strength, it’s easy to see the value in taking Seattle here. You’re getting a reasonable shot at an upset and a solid payout if they keep their momentum going—definitely a B-grade play in this spot.

Both teams head into this matchup with limited offensive firepower, as key hitters remain sidelined or less than 100%. Seattle’s recent games have been low-scoring, and Houston’s bullpen has tightened up during their last ten games. With both starting pitchers having a history of success against these lineups, the conditions point toward a pitching duel and a game that should stay well under the higher run totals.
Honestly, with injuries piling up and the way these pitchers have performed against these bats, betting on a low-scoring contest feels right. It’s one of those nights where the mound matchups just look too strong for either offense to break out.

Houston enters this divisional matchup with momentum, having won three of its last five games while Seattle is looking to rebound from a brief slump that’s exposed some bullpen vulnerabilities. The Astros appear to be regaining their offensive rhythm, and with Seattle’s lineup thinned by injuries, the advantage swings toward the home team. Houston’s starter has had success limiting opposing bats in this matchup, adding to the edge for the Astros.
Honestly, with the Astros heating up and Seattle dealing with a few absences, backing Houston to win by more than a run makes sense here. The risk is always there with a run line bet, but the upside is worth a look given the way these teams are trending.
