The Seattle Mariners and Los Angeles Angels will face off in an AL West showdown this weekend.<\/p>\n
Both teams enter the series at 3-4, tied for third place in the division behind the 5-2 Astros and 4-2 Rangers.<\/p>\n
Let’s dive into the odds and my best bets for tonight’s opener.<\/p>\n

He has a 4.91 ERA and a 1.373 WHIP across 76 starts, and we’re in for more of the same this year as Los Angeles is once again trotting him out as part of the Angels’ rotation.<\/p>\n I’m going to take a shot on Cole Young of the Mariners to get at least one hit tonight. He has a wRC+ of 158 through 26 plate appearances, including a batting average of .320. We need him to get just one hit tonight for this bet to cash.<\/p>\n Mariners vs. Angels Prediction and Pick<\/p>\n I can’t trust the Angels with Detmers on the mound. He has struggled to find any level of success as a starter, proving to be much more valuable as a reliever. Now, he has to face a Mariners’ offense that ranks 13th in wRC+ through the first week of the season. That’s going to prove to be a challenge for him tonight.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Bryan Woo gets the start for the Mariners tonight. He’s coming off a performance where he allowed just two earned runs across 6.0 innings in his first start of the year. I expect another solid performance from him tonight.<\/p>\n With the Mariners having such an advantage in the pitching department, I’m going to back Seattle to take care of business in Los Angeles tonight.<\/p>\n Pick: Mariners -162 via FanDuel<\/a><\/p>\n Create a new FanDuel Sportsbook account, and you can get $300 in bonus bets back on losing bets every day for 10 days.<\/a> Download the FanDuel app and deposit a minimum of $5 to claim your FanDuel promo code <\/a>offer today.<\/p>\n Follow Iain on X<\/a> and Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n Odds refresh periodically and are subject to change.<\/p>\n If you or someone you know has a gambling problem and wants help, call 1-800-GAMBLER.<\/p>\n You can check out all of\u00a0Iain’s bets here<\/a>!<\/p>\n
