Reds at Mariners picks and predictions
Prediction
Mariners 4, Reds 2
Moneyline
The MARINERS (-135) are a solid value as they look to cap off the 3-game interleague series sweep.
Miller has been throwing gas, keeping scores down. The M's have won each of Miller's previous 2 outings.
For the Reds (+110), they turn to Abbott to stop the bleeding. Cincinnati broke out the hitting shoes last time the southpaw was on the mound, winning 11-1 in a laugher against the Chicago White Sox on April 12, and the Reds are 2-0 in Abbott's 2 road starts this season.
Run line/Against the spread
The MARINERS -1.5 (+155) is worth playing lightly. Seattle has won the past 2 outings, while also covering the run line in each of the contests.
Seattle has won 4 of the past 6 games, and it has won by 2 or more runs in each of those victories. So, if you like the M's to win, you should like them to cash on the run line.
Over/Under
UNDER 8 (-115) is the lean. The total went low in Tuesday's 3-1 win by the Mariners, while the Under has cashed in 7 of the past 8 outings.
For the Reds, the Over and Under has split in the past 4 contests, and the total is 3-3 in the past 6 games on the road for Cincinnati. Go lightly on the Under as a result of the mixed trends.
