◆ Matchup preview

Detroit Tigers at Seattle Mariners (2026-08-05). Drew Anderson vs Bryan Woo at T-Mobile Park.

Starters — Drew Anderson carries a 4.24 ERA and 1.30 WHIP across 63.2 innings, with strong bat-missing ability at 11.03 K/9. His 3.39 BB/9 is more volatile, and 1.27 HR/9 shows some long-ball risk. His last three appearances were short: 1.1 IP, 0 ER, 2 K, 0 BB; 1.1 IP, 2 ER, 2 K, 1 BB; and 1.2 IP, 0 ER, 0 K, 0 BB. The listed trend is up, but the recent workload suggests limited length. Bryan Woo has a 4.56 ERA and 1.15 WHIP in 120.1 innings, with 9.12 K/9, excellent control at 1.94 BB/9, and 0.97 HR/9. In his last three starts, he went 5 IP, 5 ER, 8 K, 2 BB; 5 IP, 5 ER, 5 K, 2 BB; and 6 IP, 2 ER, 7 K, 2 BB. His trend is also marked up, though the game log shows mixed recent run prevention.

Teams — Detroit brings the stronger offensive profile with a .731 OPS, .243 average, and 513 runs scored. The Tigers also back that up with a 3.56 team ERA and 1.21 WHIP, plus a solid 6-4 mark over their last 10. Seattle has a lighter offensive line at .687 OPS, .230 average, and 454 runs, but the pitching staff remains competitive with a 3.78 ERA and 1.19 WHIP. The Mariners are 4-6 over their last 10, so the recent form edge leans toward Detroit, especially on the run-production side.
