Prediction: Baltimore Orioles VS Seattle Mariners 2025-06-03

The Seattle Mariners are looking to keep their momentum going after a thrilling walk-off win against the Minnesota Twins, and they're facing off against the Baltimore Orioles. The Mariners have a potent lineup, led by the incredible Shohei Ohtani, who's crushing it with 23 home runs, and Cal Raleigh, who's on pace for a historic season behind the plate.

On the mound, George Kirby will be starting for the Mariners, and he'll be facing Yuki Nishi, who's looking for his fifth win of the season. The Orioles' starter has a tough task ahead of him, given the Mariners' firepower.

The odds are in favor of the Mariners, with a price of 1.61 for a straight-up win. The spread is set at 1.5, with the Mariners as the favorites at 2.25. The total is set at 7.5, with both the over and under priced at 1.91.

My best bet for this matchup is the Seattle Mariners to cover the spread (-1.5) at 2.25. The Mariners have a strong lineup, and with George Kirby on the mound, they should be able to take care of business against the Orioles. The addition of Joe Jacques to the bullpen should also help to shore up their relief pitching, which has been a weakness lately. With Ohtani and Raleigh leading the charge, I expect the Mariners to come out on top and cover the spread.
