The Seattle Mariners head to Yankee Stadium to start a series with the New York Yankees.

Seattle is 55-48 on the season and is 2nd in the AL West division and is 12 games behind the Houston Astros in the division standings and is currently occupying the second Wild Card spot in the AL. The Mariners are just 4-6 in their last 10 games played.

This marks the first of six meetings between these two teams this season.

The Mariners are coming off a 1-3 series loss to the Houston Astros. Seattle dropped Game 4 on Sunday 3-2 after Yordan Alvarez drove home the winning run in the 10th inning of a close game. The Mariners are now 4-6 in their last 10 games after winning 14 consecutive games.

Seattle is in a tough spot here. The Yankees saw their three-game winning streak halted by a three-run home run in the 9th inning by the Kansas City Royals. Knowing how they have struggled in recent weeks, the best team in baseball should be fired up to get back in the win column.

Despite the loss, the Yankees scored 6 runs on Sunday and scored 27 runs in their last three games played. With an offense led by Aaron Judge, the Yankees are a tough team to slow down offensively. New York has hit well against left-handers while Gonzales has struggled, giving up 12 runs in his last three starts.

Seattle meanwhile, has struggled to score as of late, scoring only a total of 10 runs in their last four games played. They will have problems with a Yankees pitching staff that is one of the best in baseball this season. I don’t think that the Seattle offense can keep up.

Seattle has allowed four or more runs in six out of their last 10 games played. Gonzalez is coming off a strong start but prior to that, he allowed 10 earned runs on 20 hits in 11.2 innings pitched. Against the Yankees, his previous issues could show up on Monday night.

The Yankees have one of the most powerful lineups in the majors led by the home run leader Aaron Judge who has been red hot as of late. The Bronx Bombers have gone over the total in 15 out of their last 20 games played and in eight out of their last nine games played at home. New York has seen the total hit 9 or more runs seven times in their last 10 games played, including five times above 10 runs.

Give me these teams to hit the over, with the Yankees’ offense dictating this game.

Prediction: Over 9
