Nationals vs Mariners Preview, Parlay Picks
We’re backing the Nationals ace MacKenzie Gore to go over his strikeout line — even with a negative correlation to a Mariners victory.
Gore has been pretty solid this season despite his 2-5 record. He’s posting a 3.40 ERA with an impressive 93 strikeouts.
On Thursday, we like him to continue racking up the strikeouts, this time against the Mariners.
He’s covered this line in two straight games and in three of his last four. He’s had nine strikeouts in back-to-back starts.
His pitch arsenal has been strong, and that should continue against a team that goes through cold stretches.
The Mariners are coming off a 9-0 loss, so if the bats don’t heat up, Gore can surely cruise.
That said, we're still backing the Mariners to win.
Gore’s 2-5 record says a lot — namely, that the Nationals provide very little run support.
We see this game being low scoring, but we expect the AL West-leading Mariners to bounce back and take the series on Thursday.
