Padres vs Mariners Prediction
The Padres have won their last five meetings against the Mariners and are 3-1 in their last 4 visits in Seattle.
In this Padres vs Mariners Prediction, the Mariners are coming as -160 home favorites. The Mariners are looking to avoid a series sweep at home today with George Kirby on the mound, who has been excellent this season and has not given up more than two runs across his last six starts and no homers in his last four. On top of that, the Mariners currently have the best bullpen in baseball, so I expect them to bounce back and win this one at home.
