Seattle Mariners vs. Los Angeles Angels Prediction
I’m on the Mariners here. Seattle has owned the Angels in Kirby’s starts over the last couple of years and I look for that to continue here. The Mariners are likely cooked, but I think that this is a perfect spot to back the Mariners to show some pride and at the very least, avoid the sweep. Give me Seattle in this one.
