Mariners vs Padres Prediction
I’m siding with the Mariners here. I think that Bryan Woo is the better starter in this matchup, as you’ve yet to have a start this season where he has not managed to go at least 6 innings in the start. Yu Darvish has been up and down and while the Padres eked one out on Tuesday, I think the Mariners get their revenge here behind their ace. Give me Seattle in this one.
