Mariners Take It In the chin

Bryce Miller pitched well for

most of his time against the

Braves in Atlanta. Bryce gave

up a run in the first then two

more in the seventh before

leaving the game. Unlike most

of the season the bullpen 

surrendered three more runs.

Final Braves 6-2

The offense still continues to

struggle not having any runs

until the top of the seventh.

The Mariners actually led at

that point until Braves scored

two in the bottom of the 7th.

Eugenio Suarez and Teoscar

Hernandez drove in the two

runs. Maybe they both getting

started to hit. Speaking of

hitting Taylor Trammell continues

to struggle at the plate. His average

is now at .128. The question is

how much longer do the Mariners

go with Taylor against righties.

Do they bring up someone from

Tacoma. The Mariners still not

getting any offense at dh. How 

long they go with AJ Pollock as

well.  The trouble is they are

still having trouble hitting in the

middle of the lineup as well. Does

that effect the bottom to. 

The Mariners offense hit well in

the first game in Boston but the

well went dry after that which is

what I was afraid of. Mariners

to succeed in the remaining of

this series the offense needs to

hit and score runs early.  Tough

though when most of the lineup

has been in a slump. Need one

or two hitters to start producing.

Go M's.
