    What would be the line if a Triple A baseball team faced the Seattle Mariners?
    Seattle Mariners are the worst team in baseball this year. Their offense is the most pathetic team i ever seen. I know in minor league baseball they have A, AA and AAA. I heard someone said that most of the minor league players would not bat past the mendoza line which is .200.

    Now i don't know anything about minor league teams or the players. But if you take the best AAA team and have them play against the Seattle Mariners, what would the line be? Now, of course the Starting Pitcher won't be King Felix but let say its Rowland Smith. He's the worst starting pitcher in baseball i think this year with a record of 1-10 and 6 ERA i think.

    What would be the line for this game versus the best AAA team with their best starting pitcher against the Mariners? I also noticed that in international baseball, the lines are not actually regular lines. I think i saw 2 teams in the world baseball classic and the line was something along one team -5 runs with -115 juice.

    This Mariners team is really pathetic offensively. Every player in their squad hits below .250 besides Ichiro. I know 1 game doesn't prove much but if they play a 3 game series, would it be pretty certain the Mariners win all 3 even if Felix doesn't pitch in any of those games? What would the score be around?

    There's a big difference between AAA and major league teams, regardless if it's the Mariners vs the best AAA team. I'd think the line would be something like Seattle -1.5 @ -200 or thereabouts. Unless the pitcher of the AAA team is a stud pitcher that's down for a rehab stint or it's someone like Strasburg.

        Seattle -220 or -240 at least.
        Night and day difference IMO.
