Toronto takes Estrada on the road, but he has been struggling right now, losing his last three outings while putting up an 8.53 ERA. Walker hasn’t been tremendous either, but he has still been able to get the Mariners wins. Seattle has won eight of its last 10 and been doing it with great pitching. Look for the bullpen to be strong and backup Walker if he struggles while the Seattle lineup gets to Estrada early.
