Seattle Mariners vs. Los Angeles Angels Prediction
I’m on the Mariners in this one. I just think that Seattle’s the better team and Kochanowicz has had some serious issues in his limited career sample size against the Mariners. The Angels can provide value in spots, but Hancock’s the better option and the Mariners have the better bullpen when it gets to the later stages of this game so give me Seattle here.
