Team Analysis

Seattle Mariners

Despite their recent downswing (2-3 in the last 5), the Mariners have been resilient on the road. Their away record reads a decent 27-25. Players like Cal Raleigh and Josh Naylor have shown commendable consistency, and Randy Arozarena’s knack for clutch hitting could be key in this matchup. Their recent stats suggest an uptick in road form, and they’ll be hoping that trend continues in this significant clash.

Seattle’s recently inconsistent scoring should be of slight concern, though. Their run production has dropped to an average of 1.8 per game over the last 5. With a tough road test ahead, turning this trend around will stand as their most immediate challenge.

• Batting Average: 0.247
• Total Runs Scored: 474
• Home Runs: 142
• OPS: 0.736
• ERA: 3.91
• WHIP: 1.27

Away Record: 27-25 • Home Record: 28-24
Last 5 Games: 2-3 (1.8 RPG)
Last 10 Games: 6-4 (4.8 RPG)

Los Angeles Angels

The Angels, despite playing at their familiar Angel Stadium, have had a lukewarm run of results recently. With a dismal recent record of 1-4, Los Angeles will undoubtedly be looking to capitalise on their home advantage, where they boast a 25-24 record. Players like Taylor Ward and Jo Adell, who have been hitting well at home, will be key if the Angels look to dismantle the Mariners’ road form.

Despite this, the Angels’ recent form leaves room for improvement, as indicated by their less than impressive 3.0 RPG over their last five games. However, their capacity to dominate at home, combined with the contributions from players like Zach Neto, suggests they could bounce back in this showdown.

• Batting Average: 0.235
• Total Runs Scored: 449
• Home Runs: 149
• OPS: 0.716
• ERA: 4.67
• WHIP: 1.44

Away Record: 25-30 • Home Record: 25-24
Last 5 Games: 1-4 (3.0 RPG)
Last 10 Games: 4-6 (4.5 RPG)
