St. Louis Cardinals vs Seattle Mariners Prediction

I’m on the Cardinals here. The Mariners earned a split with the A’s, but it doesn’t change the fact that the Mariners have done little to write home about in a lot of their recent series over the last couple of months. The Cardinals haven’t done much better, but they’re still a talented lineup that’s actually started to put the pieces together in some of these recent series and I think they could actually find a way to comPete here. Give me St. Louis in this one.
