Changes For Mariners Need to Happen

The Seattle  Mariners  lost  both games 
of the doubleheader to the LA Angels
Saturday 4 -2 and 3-0. Changes need
to happen.

My opinion giving up a home run to
Mike Trout in both games is inexcusable. 
That is four  home runs in the series 
and to a player that has hit more home
runs on the Mariners  than any other
team in his career. 

Had the Mariners  not given up most of
those home runs they would be ahead 
of the Angels  in  the series or at least 
split despite  the  poor offense except 
in the Friday  night game. Even though 
Trout hit those home runs the Mariners 
pitching has been good  enough to win.

Whether the answer  is to replace manager
Scott Servais  or other changes something 
has to be done. Outside the  top of the
lineup the hitting  has been terrible  to say the
least. At least Cal Raleigh has come on his 
hitting but each game they put in Abraham 
Toro and Dylan  Moore  more often than
not. At least  more plays defense. Luis
Torrens hasn't  been  good for the most
part.

Saturday Julio Rodriguez was put into
the leadoff spot but it didn't  make any
difference at all. I know Jerry Dipoto and
Scott Servais are friends but something 
has to be done. To lose to a team three
out of four is bad. The Mariners won six
out of nine on the road then comes home
and loses three series  doesn't make sense.
Changes have to  happen.  Go M's.
