Cleveland Guardians vs Seattle Mariners Prediction, Odds and Picks for Tomorrow, 03/26/26

Baseball is back and the Cleveland Guardians will travel to take on the Seattle Mariners Thursday night. The Guardians are coming into this one after finishing above .500 in the spring training. On the mound, the Guardians will start Tanner Bibee. Last year Bibee regressed and had his worst season with a 4.24 ERA. Bibee gave up 170 hits and 54 walks through 182.1 innings pitched. These numbers are rough, but what was even worse was the Guardians hitting last season. Last season they had the fewest hits in the MLB and ranked 28^th in runs scored. I have a feeling it could be a tough night for the Guardians on both sides of the ball.

For the Mariners, they ended spring training with a record of 11-19-1. For opening day, the Mariners will start Logan Gilbert. Gilbert had a record of 6-6 last season with a 3.44 ERA through his 25 starts. Gilbert has remained steady over the past few seasons and should feel good about this season with the batters on the team. Last season, the Mariners ranked 3^rd in home runs and we can expect that those numbers will be similar this season. Additionally, the Mariners have the stronger bullpen including Gabe Speier, Eduard Bazardo, and Andres Munoz. Overall, the Mariners have the edge across the board and will look to get a win at home. I am taking the Mariners on the run line.
