Diamondbacks vs Mariners Prediction
The current betting odds have the Diamondbacks listed as an underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Diamondbacks have looked good in their games this season with their 31-24 record overall which has them right near the top of the NL West. They haven't been a great road team though with their 13-14 road record this year. Meanwhile, the Mariners haven't looked great in their games this season with their 28-29 record overall, but that record has them right at the top of the AL West. They haven't looked great in their own ballpark though with their 14-15 home record this season. The Mariners are 6-4 in their last 10 games now and they just took the lead in their division after sweeping the Athletics in their last series, but they still haven't looked great for a lot of the season and the Diamondbacks are starting to roll now. The Diamondbacks are 9-1 in their last 10 games and their offense has been getting better and better in these games. They are going with Gallen on the mound here and he hasn't looked great this season. He is 3-4 with a 4.80 ERA, but the team has been having success with him lately. They have won 2 games in a row now with him starting and he only gave up 3 earned runs in his last start too. The Mariners are going with Kirby in this one and he hasn't looked bad this season, but he hasn't looked great either. He is 5-4 with a 3.54 ERA and his team has had some trouble with him lately. They have lost 2 games in a row now with him starting and he gave up 3 earned runs in his last start which has been a common theme for him. Neither team has been pitching well lately, but the Diamondbacks have been a lot hotter entering this series and they do have the offensive edge which should be enough for them to squeak out a win in this series opener. The best way to place a bet here is on the Diamondbacks to win this game.

Notable Quotes

“This is as good as we've played all season long, and as consistent as we've been. And again, it's all parts of the game.” - Dan Wilson after his team’s sweep of the Athletics in their last series.
