Luis Castillo Doesn't Fair Well

Luis Castillo for the fourth time in
a row lost for the Mariners 9-4.
Castillo history he goes through
a bad spell and then turns things
around.

Luis gave up four runs in the first
with two home runs. After that he 
seemed to turn things around. The
Mariners tied the game in the 4th 
inning with Teoscar Hernandez hitting 
a triple scoring driving in two runs 
and Taylor Trammell hitting  a two
run homer.

The Mariners were now back in the 
game however Castillo gave up three
runs in the fifth inning. My opinion
getting back into the game why leave
Castillo in against a good hitting ball
club. I know some disagree with me.
This was the middle game of the series
and I hope the Mariners find a way to
win on Wednesday. Had this been the
third game of the series and Mariners
had won the first two games I might
have felt different. Why give the game
away in my opinion. The Mariners offense
didn't score again however anything 
still could have happened. 

Now it is over and we can't do anything
about it. Marco Gonzales goes Wednesday
night. Although he has pitched well at
times Marco will have to pitch really good
against the Red Sox to win. The Mariners
have Thursday off and go to Atlanta to
face the Braves another good hitting
ball club.

Looking at the 9th and 10th M's prospects.

#9 is Taylor Dollars. Last year he was
the best minor league pitcher in the 
Mariners organization. Now pitching
at Tacoma in the good hitting Pacific
Coast League Taylor is not having as
good season so far. Hopefully doesn't
stall his progress. Taylor has only
started in three games with 0-2 record
and a 7.56 era in eight innings. He
actually went on the injured list at the
end of April. Hopefully he wil# l be back 
soon.

#10 third baseman Tyler Locklear, drafted
in the second round last year. In his second
professional season Tyler is batting .320
33 games. He has 11 doubles and 7 home
runs in 33 games at Everett. We could see
him at double A Arkansas before the year
is out. Right now looks like the Mariners
next third baseman. 

Thursday it will be the Seahawks. We will
see how they look and additional news
on.any player signing.

Later Wednesday see how the Mariners do.
