Two Weeks Until Opening Day

This week the Seattle Mariners got into
the swing of summer camp or known as
spring training 2.0. 

So far the Mariners have one player on 
the sixty man roster we know of that has
the virus. According to manager Scott
Servais there is probably at least a couple
more as well. We don't have the names
of the players.

It looks as though the players expected
to make the thirty man roster when
opening season begins not one has
the virus as of yet.

Friday begins intersquad games. This
first game will be on the Mariners radio
network. Let you know to at least at this
time the radio announcers will not be
making trips on the road. They will do
the games like were done years ago.

I expect the TV guys will make the trips
however, they could do the game from
home as well.

Taijuan Walker says he is already set
to pitch when the season begins. He is
ready to go since he has only pitched
in one game in the last two years because
of injuries. 

It will be interesting whether we will see
the old Taijuan Walker when he was last
in Seattle or a new Walker. Let you know
he is still young enough to have a good 
career whether in Seattle or not  for the
long term.

The Seattle Mariners have a stock of a 
lot of talented starters wanting to make
their turn in the rotation so the chances
are good he will be traded at some point
if he is looking healthy.
