The Mariners thought they made a big splash when they landed Yusei Kikuchi last offseason, but he has looked nothing like an MLB pitcher during his rookie season. The Mariners have had an abundance of struggled on the road this season as they are 24-37, so expect the trends to follow here. Final Score Prediction, Toronto Blue Jays win 6-3.
