Arizona Diamondbacks vs Seattle Mariners prediction
The Arizona Diamondbacks continue to go through a slump, and they’re not a team I’m excited to back on the road. Brandon Pfaadt has also been shaky at best, and he’s been even worse on the road. The Seattle Mariners have shown flashes of getting their act together, and Logan Gilbert has been ridiculous through 33.2 innings. Gilbert was up there with Julio Rodriguez in prospect rankings, and he’s starting to come into his own. The price is more than reasonable. Give me the Mariners.
