Seattle Mariners vs LA Dodgers Prediction
The Seattle Mariners and plus money in this spot is intriguing because Logan Gilbert is an all star caliber pitcher who is going to give your money a chance. The problem is, it doesn't matter who pitches when the Mariners can't score runs. It's been like this all second half, and It's why the Mariners are going to miss the playoffs after having a massive division lead a month ago. I want nothing to do with the Mariners. Oh, it doesn't hurt to have the Dodgers at home with Jack Flaherty, who is getting more and more comfortable with his new team. Give me the Dodgers and the RL for max betting value.
