Mariners Still Going Downhill

After a good start to the season
things haven't been well. The
Mariners were able to beat Tampa
Bay to end six game losing streak.
Unfortunately they lost to the 
Philadelphia Phillies 9-0 on Monday
to begin the series. The Mariners
have a three game series against
the Phillies than start a three game
series in New York against the Mets
on Friday. The Mets are the top team
in the NL east.

Chris Flexen who has had no run
support so far in his starts didn't
pitch well in this one  giving up
six runs in five innings. Diego 
Castillo who has struggled recently
gave up the other three runs in two-
thirds of an inning. Until he gets his
slider back in order he should only
pitch in games where the decision
who is winning is going on.

Danny Young made his Mariners
debut coming in for Castillo. He 
finished the game going two and
one-thirds innings giving up three
hits but no runs. I expect we won't
see him again until the New York
series if he goes east with the
Mariners.

Julio Rodriguez continues to hit.
He had three hits including a double.
His batting average is now at .255
which is a good sign he has figured
things out for the meantime. Jesse
Winker was the only other one with
a hit. JP Crawford who was out again
might be back Tuesday night.

The Seahawks had their rookie camp
ending over the weekend. Other news
outside linebacker KJ Wright maybe
returning to the Seahawks. He might 
not be playing but might be a coach
or be in another capacity. Let you know
comes up with him. Go Hawks!
