Padres vs Mariners prediction

Padres vs Mariners best bet: Under 7.5 (+100)

After returning from injury in poor form, San Diego Padres SP Yu Darvish has started to settle in. Over his past five starts, the right-hander is 3-0 with a 3.00 ERA and 0.67 WHIP.

Darvish’s underlying metrics suggest this turnaround is likely to continue. Entering this matchup, he ranks in the 60th percentile in expected ERA (xERA), 77th in expected batting average (xBA), 80th in average exit velocity, and 87th in hard-hit rate.

He has also dominated the Seattle Mariners throughout his career, posting a 7-2 record with a 2.55 ERA and 1.09 WHIP over the past 13 meetings.

Meanwhile, the Mariners hand the ball to right-hander Bryan Woo. Perhaps one of the league’s most underappreciated pitchers, Woo is 11-7 with a 2.94 ERA and 0.94 WHIP through 25 starts.

Like Darvish, Woo’s analytics suggest continued success. This season, he ranks in the top quarter of the league in xERA, xBA, and walk rate.

Also like Darvish, Woo has demonstrated great success against Wednesday’s opponent. In his two career starts against San Diego, he is 2-0 with a 1.98 ERA and 0.59 WHIP.

Padres vs Mariners same-game parlay (SGP)

Woo has recorded at least six strikeouts in seven straight starts. Meanwhile, Darvish has struck out six or more batters in seven of his past 13 games against Seattle. 

He also boasts a 9.33 K/9 over his past five starts.
