#MLB Free Pick from Mike Lundin - Off 5-0 Tuesday
(MLB) Seattle vs. Tampa Bay,
Money Line: 111.00 Seattle (Away)
Result: Loss
Play: Seattle Mariners
Rating: 5*

The Tampa Bay Rays have won eight of their past 10 after an 8-7 win against the Seattle Mainers last night. I like the Mariners to rebound with a win to tie the series Wednesday night.

Drew Smyly (2-7, 4.94) will take the ball for the Rays, and he has struggled lately. The left-hander has surrendered a total of 17 runs and 25 hits in 15 innings in his last three starts and had his last start skipped to give him a mental break. He gave up six runs on 10 hits in five innings of a 6-4 loss at Seattle on May 10 and odds are he'll get hit hard once again.

The Mariners turn to Nathan Karns (5-2, 4.09 ERA) who held Cleveland to one run on a pair of hits in 4 1/3 innings. He has struggled with his command lately with 10 walks in his last two starts, but Tampa Bay is not a team that draws a lot of walks and its .313 on base percentage ranks in the bottom third of the major leagues. Karns will make his first start against the team he spent the last two seasons with.

Rays are 1-4 in Smyly's five starts at the Trop this year, Mariners are 5-1 in Karns' six road starts.

Note that:
- Mike Lundin is off a 4-0 SWEEP with his MLB Premium Picks on Tuesday, and he also won with his free pick to make it a PERFECT 5-0 DAY AT THE BALLPARK. The winning continues Wednesday with Mike's Top Rated 10* MLB *GAME OF THE WEEK*, a play you definitely don't want to miss.
