Seattle Mariners vs LA Dodgers Prediction 

Los Angeles was able to pick up a nice series win in St. Louis over the weekend, as they try to hold off the Padres and Diamondbacks in the NL West race. LA is 38-22 at home this season, while Seattle is 27-35 on the road. Seattle lost two out of three against Pittsburgh and they are fading quickly in the AL West. The Mariners are turning to Bryan Woo, who has pitched very well this season and has one of the lowest WHIPs in baseball. LA is going with Gavin Stone, who has had some recent struggles. I can’t trust this Mariners offense, especially to keep pace with this high scoring Dodgers team. My Seattle Mariners vs LA Dodgers prediction is for the Dodgers to win.
