Mariners vs Reds Prediction
The Reds still have issues stringing wins together, and Abbott has been hittable with his 4.11 ERA and 1.42 WHIP through 105 innings. The Mariners are coming off a decent series and find themselves with a .500 record. This is a chance for the Mariners to keep stacking wins and put themselves in a better playoff position, the way most believed they would from the start. Kirby has been sharper this season with a 3.76 ERA and 1.32 WHIP. If the Mariners are going to make a legit push toward the postseason, it starts now. Time is starting to run out for Seattle. I’ll lay the reasonable price with the home team.
