The Seattle Mariners offense has been stuck in the mud for quite a while, and M’s fans are going to have to get used to that for the time being after the team traded slugger Edwin Encarnacion to the New York Yankees on Saturday.

Standout Stats
My best bet for Mariners-Athletics
UNDER 9.5 runs
The Mariners offense will have a much different look without the sweet-swinging Encarnacion around, and I’m viewing them as fade material for the rest of the season as a result. With the M’s likely going to have some issues offensively and the Athletics struggling to manufacture runs at home, I can foresee this game going UNDER the 9.5-run total.
The Mariners are 1-4 SU in their last five against the Athletics. The OVER is 7-3 in the last 10 meetings between the Mariners and Athletics in Oakland. The OVER is 6-2 in the Athletics' last eight home games.home
