Angels at Mariners picks and predictions
Prediction
Mariners 3, Angels 2
The MARINERS ( -162 ) are a little on the pricey side in this series opener, especially since they’ve dropped 4 of the past 5 outings.
However, Seattle has Miller going, and he has been a beast at home, posting a tremendous 1.87 ERA at T-Mobile Park in front of the home fans.
For the Angels (+136), while they’ve won 3 in a row against the M’s, the southpaw Anderson has a dismal 5.40 ERA in his career against Seattle.
The Angels +1.5 (-176) aren’t terribly priced out of line, if you’d like a little bit of insurance and just cannot trust the Mariners -1.5 (+142) straight up. But if you like Los Angeles, it is a much better value on the moneyline.

UNDER 7.5 ( -122 ) is the best play on the board.
While Anderson has been a little sideways against the M’s in his career, he sports a solid 1.87 ERA on the road this season. The Over is 7-2-1 in the past 10 games for the Halos, but both of those Unders came in the most recent meetings with the Mariners.
For Seattle, the Under has cashed in 4 of the past 5 outings while going 11-6-1 in the previous 18 home contests.
