Seattle Mariners vs. Chicago White Sox Prediction

I’m on the Mariners -1.5 here. It would be nice to know who the Mariners are throwing out for the start here, but I think that we’re at a point with the White Sox where it doesn’t matter who the other team is starting here; Chicago is on auto-fade until further notice. The offense continues to be lacklustre for the White Sox, and while Seattle’s cooled off in some of their recent outings, I still think the Mariners are miles ahead of the better team in this matchup, so I’ll roll with the Mariners -1.5 for another sizeable win in this one.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Seattle Mariners -1.5
