Seattle Mariners at Toronto Blue Jays: Prediction, Player Props, & Betting Tips
By Sam Batz
The MLB season continues on Saturday, April 29th when the Seattle Mariners take on the Toronto Blue Jays (3:07 PM EST, Root Sports/MLB Extra Innings). The Mariners and Blue Jays have not played this season, but last year, Seattle went 5-2 versus Toronto. The Blue Jays have a score to settle with the Mariners, as it was Seattle who knocked them out of the playoffs in 2022. The Mariners may have had the upper hand last year, but they are +1.5 run underdogs with a moneyline priced at +185 for Saturday’s matchup. The Blue Jays are off to a good start and enter Saturday’s contest as -1.5 run favorites with a moneyline priced at -200.
Away Team: Seattle Mariners (+1.5; ML +185)
The Seattle Mariners made the playoffs for the first time in 21 years last season, but are off to a rough start this year. The Mariners are 11-14 (44.0%) and can’t find the consistency needed to be successful in the MLB. They are 4th in the AL West, 11th in the American League, and 21st in the MLB. Seattle has a 26% chance to return to the playoffs and are No. 18 in the MLB’s power rankings. The Mariners went 4-6 in their last 10 games, and unfortunately for them, are not expected to beat the Blue Jays on Saturday.
Home Team: Toronto Blue Jays (-1.5; ML -200)
The Blue Jays are 16-9 (64.0%) and have been dominant at home. Toronto is posting a 7-2 home record (77.8%) and are coming off a 3-0 sweep against the White Sox, where the Jays scored 20 runs and allowed only 2 (+18). Toronto is 6-4 in their last 10 games, but are 4-1 in their last 5. The Blue Jays are 3rd in the AL East, 3rd in the American League, and 6th in the MLB. The rank at No. 6 in the MLB’s most recent power rankings, 12 spots ahead of the Mariners.

Mariners vs. Blue Jays: Player Props
Julio Rodriguez (Mariners CF): Over 0.5 Hits (-280)
The Mariners newest young talent is a sensation in Seattle. The 22-year old Julio Rodriguez has 24 hits on 107 AB’s for a batting average of .224. Rodriguez was last year’s AL Rookie of the Year and is playing with a lot of confidence. In his last 5 games, he recorded just 1 hit, but I predict he will turn it around on Saturday, and go over 0.5 hits against the Blue Jays.
Bo Bichette (Blue Jays SS): Over 1.5 Hits (+150)
Bo Bichette is leading the Jays with 36 hits on 106 AB’s. He is batting an incredible .340, the 5th best average in the MLB. In his last 5 games, Bichette has 1.2 hits per game. The Mariners are starting Chris Flexen, who Bichette is 2-9, with 1 HR and 1 RBI in 9 plate appearances, against. Bo is the Blue Jays best batter, and I predict he will record 2 hits against the M’s on Saturday.
Mariners vs. Blue Jays Prediction
Take the Blue Jays to win on Saturday. Toronto is ranked higher than the Mariners in nearly every statistical metric. They are difficult to beat at home and the Mariners are starting a pitcher (Chris Flexen) who has yet to win a game. Seattle has struggled to hit the ball, while the Blue Jays rank in the top-ten for total hits (223). These two teams have a long history, but Toronto has the edge this season, and will beat the Mariners on Saturday.
Prediction: Toronto Blue Jays Moneyline (-200)
