Texas Rangers (82-63) at Seattle Mariners (55-91)

The Rangers are coming into Seattle with a seven game winning streak, looking to make it eight against the Mariners. Texas will clinch the division on the road, as it is currently 10 games over the A's and the magic number is at 8.

What I like about right now with the Rangers is that they have clinched a winning season. I would also like to note that the Rangers have the worst record among the playoff teams, so they will start off on the road, playing the winner of the East, which is just to close to call if it will be either it will be the Ray's or the Yankees. The Wild Card team will play the Twins and also be on the road, irregardless of whether they have a better record than the Twins, if I understand that correctly.

I don't have too much time to really reflect on this game, but I can't see myself picking the Mariners. The Rangers are hot, Wilson is going for his 15th win and even though he has never pitched this many innings in a major league season, I still like him for this one.

King Felix has a solid 2.39 ERA, but only an 11-11 record.

I will  have to say that this could start out a really low scoring game, but being that Hernandez isn't getting run support, he isn't getting the wins that he really should. Tonight will not be any different. Wilson himself has a 3.25 ERA, but the Rangers are really clicking. Look for an 8th straight victory tonight. Magic number to drop to at least 7 games. Prediction: Rangers 5-2, scoring two runs late in the game.
