The Seattle Mariners and Atlanta Braves meet Friday in MLB action at Truist Park. Let’s preview this game and give out a pick and prediction.

Seattle Mariners Betting Preview

The Seattle Mariners have scored 17 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 5 of their last 8 games. The Mariners have won 5 of their last 6 games when scoring 4 or more runs. Ty France leads the Mariners with 45 hits and 20 RBI, while Jarred Kelenic and Teoscar Hernandez have combined for 82 hits and 43 RBI. Bryce Miller gets the ball, and he is 2-0 with a 0.47 ERA and 18 strikeouts this season. This will be Miller’s first career game against the Braves.

The Atlanta Braves have scored 22 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 8 of their last 12 games. The Braves have won 7 of their last 10 games when scoring 4 or more runs. Ronald Acuna Jr. leads the Braves with 58 hits and 27 RBI, while Ozzie Albies and Austin Riley have combined for 86 hits and 52 RBI.

Trends

The Mariners are 7-0 in their last 7 games following an off day and 7-3 in their last 10 road games. The Braves are 16-5 in their last 21 games following an off day and 15-6 in their last 21 Friday games. The over is 5-1 in Mariners last 6 games following a loss. The over is 4-0 in Braves last 4 overall. The Mariners are 4-1 in the last 5 meetings in Atlanta and 8-2 in the last 10 meetings.

Randy’s Pick

You can make a case for either of these pitchers who are dealing, but Bryce Elder has shown more on a larger sample size. Bryce Miller has just 19 innings under his belt this season, so the jury is still out on this impressive start. Also, you rarely get the Braves at this cheap of a price, especially at home. I’d have to give the Braves the edge in this spot.
