Felix Hernandez of the Seattle Mariners has blossomed into one of the best pitchers in all of baseball this year, while Ricky Romero of the Toronto Blue Jays is better than his last two outings and should bounce back vs. a struggling Seattle lineup.

Hernandez made his first All-Star team this season, and deservedly so, as he is 11-3 with a sparkling 2.45 ERA and 1.11 WHIP, figures that are even better considering he is in the American League. King Felix has been remarkably consistent, as he has impressively reeled off 11 consecutive Quality Starts and he has 16 such outings out of 20 total starts this year. The last time he faced the Jays, he allowed just one unearned run and four hits in eight innings last June.

Now Romero has allowed exactly four runs while lasting less that six innings in each of his last two outings, but he is still 8-4 with a fine 3.44 ERA and 1.36 ERA. He had tossed eight straight Quality Starts prior to those last two appearances, and he has 11 such efforts in 15 appearances this season. Facing the Mariners could be the perfect cure for Romero here, as they are batting just .234 as a team over the last 10 games while averaging a paltry 3.20 runs per game.

The Blue Jays are not exactly scorching the ball themselves lately, so take the Under in Seattle tonight.
