Washington Nationals vs Seattle Mariners. The MLB pick for this game is the Seattle Mariners. The Mariners have triumphed in their last three games and five of their last seven at home. They have been offensively productive recently, as seen by the fact that they scored 27 runs in their last three games. Expect them to do well offensively in this game because Williams struggled on the mound, especially on the road where he allowed 16 runs in his previous four outings. Since the Nationals have the third-worst bullpen in the league, they will need assistance to stop Seattle’s hot hitters. The Nationals lost seven of their past nine games, including five of their previous eight road defeats. Due to offensive difficulties, they only scored eight runs in their final three games.
Given that Castillo pitched effectively for Seattle, allowing nine earned runs over his previous four starts, their offensive struggles are expected to continue in this contest. He has only given up two runs in his previous three home starts and will limit Washington’s offensive potential. Pick Seattle to cover the run line. It’s expected that the Seattle Mariners will triumph 6-3.
