Our Seattle Mariners vs Atlanta Braves Prediction

Atlanta has been the better team this season, has a better starting pitcher on the mound, a better bullpen, and a lineup hitting .280 and averaging 6+ runs a game over the last week. So, why not go for the moneyline? Because Kirby is a solid pitcher, the Mariners' bullpen has been decent, and Seattle did win 5-4 last night. So, out of caution, I’m taking the points and Atlanta in a game the Braves should win.

Our Atlanta vs. Seattle Pick: Braves +1.5

Braves +1.5
