Mariners vs A’s MLB Offshore Odds, Preview & Pick (June 22)

Before Betting on Mariners vs A’s June 22

The Seattle Mariners have found that a visit to their AL West foes the Oakland A’s is good for what ails you. The M’s had been mired in a stretch of five losses in their previous six games before erupting for an 8-2 win in Tuesday’s series opener, cashing in on the -128 offshore odds.

Seattle is favored again on Wednesday night, and why wouldn’t they be as the A’s are 3-16 over their last 19 games. The Mariners’ recent 3-8 stretch all came at home, but Tuesday’s win at RingCentral Coliseum was their fourth road victory in their last five away from T-Mobile Park. Oakland has one of the worst 2-3 offenses in baseball giving opponents the pitching edge nearly every night.

Seattle rookie pitcher George Kirby (1-2, 3.56 ERA) will try to take full advantage of exploiting the home team in the Mariners vs A’s June 22 matchup. The right-hander is making his 9th career start, but already the 2nd vs. Oakland after he allowed 4ER over 5.0 IP in a 7-5 A’s win on May 24th.

Oakland counters with Paul Blackburn (6-2, 2.26 ERA). The A’s have 23 wins all season, and 9 of those have come when Blackburn has gotten the start. He’s allowed just 1 ER in his last two starts – but those were both road games. The right-hander has given up 8ER over 10.2 IP in his last two home outings.

Mariners vs A’s June 22 Offshore Sports Betting Odds

It seems like you can only bet on Oakland about once a week, and that’s when Blackburn is on the hill. The Mariners looked good on Tuesday night, but this is also a team that has been very bad as of late. The fact that the offshore odds haven’t gone up that much despite Seattle’s comfortable 8-2 victory in the series opener would give a lean towards the A’s here.
