Mariners vs Athletics Prediction

I’m backing the Athletics in this game. I get the case to be made for the Mariners, as Logan Gilbert has been really strong at home this season. However, the Athletics continue to be competitive, and are still playing some of their best baseball of the season across the board in my opinion. Lopez has been a gamer in a lot of his starts, and I think he helps the A’s get it done here. Give me the A’s.
