San Francisco Giants vs Seattle Mariners Prediction
I’m on the Giants here. I’m going to continue to go against the Mariners while they’re in this freefall and they’re simply playing themselves out of the playoffs. The managerial change clearly did nothing for this team, and I don’t think that their problems will be fixed anytime soon. Give me San Francisco.
