MLB Betting Trends
Seattle
The Mariners have won seven of their last 10 series openers and 20 of their last 28 against a right-handed starter.
Baltimore
The Orioles have lost 11 of their last 12 at home and they have lost eight of their last nine Monday games.
Prediction:
The Mariners haven’t been playing well lately, but they have been up against two of the better teams in baseball. I think getting a chance to face the Orioles will help them get back on track. King Felix has allowed just one earned run in three of his last four starts. He seems to be starting to get back to his old form.
The Pick: Seattle Mariners -120
