Seattle Mariners vs San Diego Padres Prediction 

Seattle was able to pick up a road win in game one of this series, which is huge for them because they are just 20-25 on the road this season. The Mariners have a very good pitching staff, but they are one of the lowest scoring teams in the MLB this season. San Diego is 25-25 at home this year, but their pitching staff is a disaster right now. The Padres are starting Michael King, who has been very good recently. The Mariners are going with Bryce Miller, who is having an excellent season. Seattle’s offense has been better in their last few games, but I still don’t trust them on the road. My Seattle Mariners vs San Diego Padres prediction is for the Padres to get the win.
