George Kirby Makes First Start

Former numer one pick by the Mariners 
in 2019 made his first start of the spring. 

Last year Logan Gilbert came up early 
on the season to have a good rookie 
season.  We hope more from Logan
this year. Kirby is the next one in line
to come up into the starting rotation. 

Kirby  didn't do well Monday in his first
starting  appearance. He gave up six
runs in one and two-thirds innings.
The Arizona Diamondbacks got five
hits off Kirby and a walk with two 
home runs. The Diamondbacks won 9-1.

Matt Brash trying to make the starting 
rotation pitched two innings giving up
one hit , a walk and strikeout without 
a run. We should see him start in his next 
outing.

Abraham Toro  was the only hitter with
two hits in the game and drove in the
only run. Toro started at third base,
however, right now Eugenio Suarez is
expected to start at third. It will be
interesting to see  where else Toro 
will play in the spring. He should make
the roster as one of the extra players. 

The Mariners take on the Chicago Cubs 
on Tuesday afternoon.  See how the 
Mariners do coming out with a 1-3   record.
