Mariners vs Athletics Prediction
Both teams are tied 5-5 in their last 10 meetings and the over is 3-1 in their last 4 meetings.
In this Mariners vs Athletics Prediction, the Mariners are coming as -120 road favorites. The wrong team is favored in this spot, as the Mariners have been bad on the road, coming off back-to-back losses and are putting Luis Castillo on the bump, who has been atrocious this season with a 6.41 ERA and 1.55 WHIP. Civale had just four earned runs in his four start before his previous one where he struggled and the A’s have a better offense, so I expect them to get the job done at home in this one.
