Braves vs Mariners Betting Preview
A potential World Series preview concludes Sunday afternoon when the Atlanta Braves (87-52, 40-27 away) visit the Seattle Mariners (78-61, 37-31 home). Atlanta currently occupies the top NL Wild Card spot and are just half a game back of the New York Mets for the NL East crown. Seattle is the third AL Wild Card participant and have a five-game lead over the Baltimore Orioles.
Austin Riley is having a big season for Atlanta as he leads the team with 35 home runs and Dansby Swanson leads the way with a .286 batting average. Matt Olson has driven in a team high 91 RBIs. The Braves are hitting .253 and the pitchers have recorded a 3.49 ERA and 1.19 WHIP.

Braves vs Mariners Pick & Prediction
Last time out, Seattle even this series up with a 3-1 win on Saturday. This game was scores through four and a half innings until Sam Haggerty hit a solo shot in the bottom of the fifth to give Seattle the win. Eugenio Suarez added a solo shot in the bottom of the sixth and Julio Rodriguez knocked home another insurance run with an RBI double in the seventh. Atlanta got on back in the top of the seventh thanks to a Matt Olson fielder’s choice. Seattle outhit Atlanta 6-3 in this one.
Dansby Swanson went 2-4 with one run scored in the loss. Vaughn Grissom notched the only other hit for Atlanta. Eugenio Suarez went 2-4 with one home run, one RBI and one run scored in the win. Julio Rodriguez went 2-4 with one double and one RBI for Seattle. George Kirby improved to 7-3, Max Fried fell to 13-6, and Paul Sewald saved his 19th game of the season.
Pitching Matchup: Jake Odorizzi (5-5, 3.90 ERA, 1.24 WHIP) vs Marco Gonzales (10-13, 3.98 ERA, 1.35 WHIP)
Tonights Pick:
Atlanta has continued their post All-Star Break form as they are 8-1 in their past nine games and have won the 11 of their last 12 games they played in September. The Braves are 5-2 in their last seven games against AL West opponents but are just 2-7 in their last nine against the Mariners. Seattle is 9-3 in their last 12 games and 5-2 in their past seven games against NL East opponents.
This has been an awesome series and I like Atlanta to use a balanced attack to get the win on Sunday.
