Mariners at Yankees picks and predictions
Prediction
Yankees 5, Mariners 4
Moneyline
LEAN YANKEES (-150).
New York is 16-8 at home this year while Seattle, after winning the 1st 2 games of the series, is 12-12 on the road.
The Yankees are simply too good of a team for me to advise betting that they will lose 3 in a row to Seattle, especially in New York.
This is only a lean because Seattle is 6-4 in its last 10 overall and 3-0 in its last 3 vs. New York.
Run line/Against the spread
PASS.
I like Seattle to cover here as a +1.5 (-165) underdog especially given that the Mariners are 6-4 in their last 10 vs. New York, but this current line is not worth the risk. Bet on the moneyline and/or total instead.
Over/Under
BET OVER 8 (-110).
The Over has hit in 3 consecutive Games for Seattle and is 7-2-1 in its last 10 overall. For New York, the Over is 3-0 in its last 3 Games. The Over has also hit in each of the last 3 Seattle-New York matchups, being 5-3 in the last 8 meetings.
