Mariners Lean on Arozarena

Seattle is batting only .230 with a .309 on-base percentage and .379 slugging percentage. Randy Arozarena leads the Mariners with a .278 average and .371 on-base percentage, while Dominic Canzone has supplied 18 home runs and 49 RBIs.

Injuries Testing Both Rosters

Seattle remains without infielder Brendan Donovan, while relievers Matt Brash and Carlos Vargas are also sidelined, reducing the club's lineup flexibility and bullpen depth. Cooper Criswell and Will Wilson remain long-term absences. Los Angeles has several significant pitching injuries, with Bobby Miller, Gavin Stone, Blake Treinen and Blake Snell unavailable, leaving the Dodgers with less rotation and late-inning depth than their overall record suggests.

The series is tied 1-1 after the Mariners won the opener 7-6 before the Dodgers answered with a 4-2 victory Wednesday. Seattle enters at 53-56 and sits 2.5 games behind Texas in the American League West, while Los Angeles owns the National League's best record at 68-40. Los Angeles is listed as a -157 moneyline favorite, Seattle is priced at +130 and the total is set at nine runs.

SEA and LAD Injuries and Things to Know

  • Brendan Donovan (Seattle) remains unavailable.
  • Matt Brash and Carlos Vargas (Seattle bullpen) are also sidelined.
  • Cooper Criswell and Will Wilson (Seattle) remain long-term absences.
  • Bobby Miller and Gavin Stone (Los Angeles rotation) are unavailable.

Mariners vs Dodgers Side and Over/Under Picks

Dodgers Side Pick

Take Los Angeles -157 on the moneyline. Sasaki's home-run issues make the Dodgers' moneyline safer than laying 1.5 runs, and the club's stronger active lineup should be enough to close out the series.

Total Pick

Take the over 9. Both starters are vulnerable enough to support a higher-scoring finale, with Sasaki's walk and home-run rates pairing with Woo's hit totals to create scoring opportunities for both lineups.

Final Score Prediction

Dodgers Close Out the Series

Los Angeles owns the stronger active lineup and better team pitching numbers, and that advantage should be enough to close out the series finale against a Seattle team that has been competitive throughout.

  • Final Score: Dodgers 6, Mariners 4
  • Moneyline: Los Angeles -157
  • Total: Over 9
