Seattle Mariners vs. Los Angeles Angels Prediction

I’m on the Mariners here. I just think there’s too much of a gap in starting pitching for the Angels to overcome here as Bryan Woo is arguably Seattle’s staff ace while the Angels are sending Detmers out for just his second start in over a year. Granted, Detmers was used out of the bullpen last year and looked good in his debut, but I just don’t trust the offense for the Halos right now against Woo so give me the Mariners to draw first blood here.
