03 Jul 2025 | 10:10 PM ET | T-Mobile Park, Seattle

Seattle returns home Thursday carrying a 6-4 run in their last ten and renewed stability in the rotation, as their starter makes a poised return from a minor setback. Kansas City arrives on a 2-8 run and still dealing with absences in both the lineup and the bullpen, making this prediction lean heavily toward the home side. The bet here focuses on Seattle’s combination of steady strike-throwing and an offence that has produced consistently against this opponent’s pitching staff. The pick is Seattle to win outright, a reflection of their strong home record and the urgency to keep pace in the wild-card race.
Looking at the matchup, it’s hard to find many reasons to back the visitors. Kansas City’s lineup has been inconsistent on the road, and their bullpen has struggled to protect leads or hold deficits in check. Betting on Seattle to continue their momentum feels like the right call in this prediction, especially given the contrast in current form and roster health. This prediction gets a B grade.

Seattle enters Thursday’s matchup riding a good run of form, while Kansas City arrives looking to halt a bad run of form that’s been compounded by bullpen injuries. This prediction leans toward a higher-scoring contest, as the bet focuses on two rotations that will likely be asked to cover more innings than ideal and two relief corps that have shown recent cracks. With both teams battling for position past the halfway mark, the pressure to make quick bullpen moves can often lead to big innings late. The pick is on the over seven total runs, a reflection of the environment, lineup strengths, and taxed pitching staffs.
Looking at the way these clubs have trended, expecting a low-scoring duel doesn’t feel realistic. Seattle has found ways to pressure opposing arms early, and Kansas City’s offence has consistently capitalized on middle-inning mistakes. Betting on the over seems like the right call in this prediction, especially with late-game urgency likely to create more scoring opportunities. This prediction gets a B grade.

Seattle comes into Thursday’s matchup winning six of their last ten which has nudged the club back into postseason contention, while Kansas City arrives having lost eight of their last ten and are grappling with a bullpen stretched thin by recent losses. This prediction leans strongly toward the home side covering the -1.5 run line, as the bet highlights Seattle’s combination of dependable starting pitching and a rested group of high-leverage relievers. The pick is Seattle -1.5, reflecting confidence in their ability to create separation early and maintain control late.
Considering the current state of both teams, betting on Seattle to extend its momentum feels like a sensible play. The Mariners have shown they can pile on runs when needed and protect a lead behind reliable arms, while Kansas City’s lack of bullpen depth has made close games tougher to navigate. This prediction makes sense if you’re looking for a combination of recent form and playoff motivation to back a favourite. This prediction gets a B+ grade.
