Seattle Mariners vs. St. Louis Cardinals Prediction
I’m on the Mariners in this one. I just think there’s another seismic starting pitching advantage that favors the Mariners and I think Bryan Woo has another strong start here. I’m always weary of backing Seattle against a left-handed starter, but I just think there’s too much going in the favor of Seattle here for me to think that St. Louis escapes with the W here. Give me Seattle.
