Michael King (12-8, 3.1 ERA) vs. Bryan Woo (7-2, 2.36 ERA)
Michael King has been the mainstay for the Padres, finishing with a respectable ERA of 3.1 over 156.2 innings pitched. With his 185 k’s, it means he can get the batters out and be on top of the game, but letting 17 homers shows he can be hit when under pressure. King and his attacking pitch style will be important against the Mariners’ batting, who is known to score in bouts.
In contrast, Bryan Woo has not only been productive for the Mariners but has also yielded an impressive ERA of 2.36 and WHIP of 0.85. Such dominance is shown in his 99 innings pitched, whereby he only allowed 9 walks. The efficiency of this nature will be needed when playing against a Padres team that loves to get on base and bring the runners home.
MLB Odds/Point Spread: San Diego Padres -1.5 (+160), Total Odds: 6.5
The betting odds reflect a tight contest, with the Padres slightly favored in the spread, but both teams are nearly even in the moneyline. The over/under set at 6.5 suggests a lower-scoring game, aligning with recent trends, especially given the pitchers’ form and historical matchups between these teams.
San Diego Padres Betting Trends
The Padres have seen the total go OVER in 4 of their last 6 games, signaling their offensive capabilities. However, their 1-4 SU record in recent games against Seattle might raise concerns about their ability to handle the Mariners, particularly on the road.
Seattle Mariners Betting Trends
Seattle’s performance shows a preference for tight, low-scoring games, with the total going UNDER in 4 of their last 5 home games against the Padres. Their recent home form (8-3 SU) provides them a psychological edge, which could play into the dynamics of this matchup.
San Diego Padres vs. Seattle Mariners 9/11/24 Betting Picks
The situation about the Padres and Mariners is similar to the previous one, as performance history and pitching advantages present challenges in terms of betting setups. Considering the current shape of the two starters and that they both finish quite low when these two sides meet in Seattle, a low-scoring affair is a plausible outcome.
The most reasonable and best wager here would seem to be placed on the UNDER on the total number of points as both sides have not been able to turn up in such encounters lately. Moreover, in view of the fact that the Mariners are very good at home and with all the premium picks and insights, the best bet seems to be going with Seattle to cover +1.5.
