Seattle Mariners Fantasy Spin
Ryon Healy went 4-for-5 and cranked a two-run homer to help demolish the Yankees 10-1 on Wednesday. He brought his best lumber to the old ball yard today — all four of his knocks went for extra bases. Three of them were doubles and he topped those with a two-run shot off Jake Barrett in the eighth frame. He is now batting .258/.318/.515 with six homers, 24 RBI and 22 runs scored. He’s never stolen a base in his four-year career.
New York Yankees Fantasy Spin
Mike Tauchman went 2-for-3 and scored the Yankees’ only run of the game in a lopsided loss to the Mariners on Wednesday. He doubled in the sixth inning and came around to score on a sacrifice fly by Luke Voit. Tauchman hit in the number nine slot in the batting order today. He’s been getting a lot of playing time on the decimated Yankee roster. He hasn’t made the most of his opportunity, slashing .203/.308/.430 with four homers and 11 RBI in 91 plate appearances. He is in his first season with the Yankees after playing parts of the last two years in the majors with the Rockies.

Prediction:
The Mariners broke out their bats on Wednesday night but they have a decided disadvantage in tonight’s pitching matchup, despite the fact that J.A. Happ has struggled at Yankee Stadium this season. The Mariners are winless in Mike Leake’s last four starts and are 1-5 in his last six outings against a team with a winning record. The Yankees, meanwhile, are 13-6 in Happ’s last 10 starts and are 23-8 in their last 31 games versus the Mariners.
The Pick: New York Yankees -157
