At the time of this writing, the following Match Odds/Moneyline were available: Seattle Mariners (2.02, +102) and Toronto Blue Jays (1.87, -115)

Mariners are 5-2 versus AL East opponents
Blue Jays are 2-5 in Cecil's last seven outings as a favorite

Seattle has dropped nine games in a row and no end is in sight for a club that ranks last in baseball by scoring just 3.19 runs per game. "It's been a tough stretch," said Mariners manager Eric Wedge. "What has changed drastically is the standings." The Mariners picked the absolute worst time of the year to go into a a major slump, as the division-leading Rangers have reeled off a MLB-high 12-game winning streak. The clubhouse certainly is affected by seeing itself go from 2 1/2 games back in the paper to 11 1/2 games. Seattle is a dismal 6-17 against left-handed starters this year and 18-25 on the road.
Mariners starting pitcher Michael Pineda is 8-6 with a 3.03 ERA in 18 starts this season and is coming off a poor effort last time out. He allowed seven runs and six hits over five frames in a 9-3 road loss to the Angels in that particular outing. The rookie has struggled at times away from pitcher-friendly Safeco Field, posting an even 4-4 mark and 3.52 ERA in 10 starts. Pineda will be facing the Blue Jays for just the second time, coming away with a 3-2 home victory in just his second career start, limiting them to two runs (one earned) and five hits over 7 1/3 frames.

Toronto would love to play the rest of its games this season under the lights, as the club dropped to 13-25 in day games with a 7-2 loss Sunday afternoon to the Yankees. The Blue Jays were also without the services of All-Star Jose Bautista over the last two games, sitting out three straight games with a sprained right ankle. "Whether it's daytime, nighttime or early morning, his absence in the lineup is a hold to fill," said Blue Jays manager John Farrell. Entering this series, the team is 2-2 on its current seven-game homestand and 21-24 overall at the Rogers Centre.
