Mariners vs Angels Prediction
The Mariners are 7-2 in their last 9 meetings against the Angels and are 4-2 in their last 6 visits in LA. Over is 3-1 in their last 4 meetings.
In this Mariners vs Angels Prediction, the Mariners are coming as -165 road favorites. Both teams have identical overall records and the Mariners have dropped two straight to the Yankees while the Angels are 1-4 in their last 5. The Mariners have the pitching advantage with Woo on the mound, but they have a weaker offense, a weaker bullpen and they have been atrocious against left-handed pitching so far, with just 1.3 runs per game against lefties. This is also the home opener for the Angels, so I like them as home dogs in this spot. Take the Angels on the moneyline for plus money.
