Atlanta Braves vs. Seattle Mariners Prediction
I’m on the Braves here. I just think that while Logan Gilbert historically has done well int his ballpark, the Mariners’ offense behind him continues to be inconsistent and hard to back in a matchup like this. Atlanta’s bats continue to crank and while I am slightly concerned about this game off of the Coors Field series with no day off in between to reacclimate from the altitude change, I still think Atlanta has enough in the tank to bag the win to start the series. Give me Atlanta.
