Yankees at Mariners picks and predictions
Prediction
Mariners 3, Yankees 2
Money line
The MARINERS (+110) are worth playing as they look for the bounce back after a 9-4 setback in the opener. Castillo handled his business Wednesday at Yankee Stadium, and he’ll get them again. That’s why GM Jerry DiPoto and the Seattle brass picked him up at the trade deadline.

Run line/Against the spread
The MARINERS +1.5 (-160) aren’t priced poorly if you’d like a little insurance and don’t trust them to win straight up. Seattle is 5-5 in its last 10 against the spread, and it will cover in this one, too.
Over/Under
The UNDER 6.5 (+110) is worth playing with Cole and Castillo ready to put on a strong display of pitching.
Playing the Under will be going against the trends for the Yankees lately, as they have cashed the Over at a 21-7-1 clip across the past 29, including 4-0-1 in the past 5 vs. AL West foes.
The Over has also been prominent for the M’s, going 5-1-2 in the past 8 games overall, and 3-1-1 in the past 5 in SoDo. Despite that, trust the pitchers to keep the bats at bay.
