Did the series in Houston ignite the offensive spark the Mariners were looking for? At least Luke Raley did, with a three-run homer in the first inning. Garver, who replaced the injured Raleigh, hit his first home run of the season, and the Mariners defeated the Astros 8-3, taking the final game of the series. One game away from tying their 22-23 record, the Mariners return to Seattle to await the Padres.
This series between the Mariners and Padres is generating a lot of interest. Earlier in the season, they faced off at Petco Park. In that series, the Padres swept the Mariners. In the second game, the Padres staged an epic comeback in the ninth inning thanks to a walk-off home run by Merrill. In that memorable game, the pitching matchup was Hancock vs. Vasquez, the same one that will take place this Friday at T-Mobile Park.
Randy Vasquez has a 4-1 record and a 3.05 ERA in 44.1 innings pitched. This performance is very similar to Hancock's, who boasts a 3-1 record and a 3.21 ERA. However, Hancock has a better K/BB ratio, with 50 strikeouts this season and only 9 walks.

Our Seattle Mariners vs San Diego Padres Prediction
In a rotation that looked like it would be the most dominant in MLB, Emerson Hancock was the least talked-about starter. But while Castillo, Gilbert, and Woo have had a mediocre 2026, Hancock has been the pleasant surprise of Seattle's pitching staff.
At home, Hancock is pitching particularly well. In May, he pitched at T-Mobile Park against the Royals, throwing seven innings and racking up an incredible 14 strikeouts without issuing a walk. If the Padres' offense lets him settle on the mound, they'll be in trouble on Friday.
Our prediction for Mariners vs Padres is: Under 7.5 runs.
