have a pretty good offense. Right
now the Mariners could use some
of it.
The Mariners have superior pitching
however for the most part the offense
is in a slump. Julio was willing to slide
down to the sixth spot to help the team.
The Rangers beat the Mariners 4-3.
Luis Castillo had one bad inning
giving up three runs in third. He
went five innings giving up eight
hits while striking out nine. Had no
walks.
I know the Mariners should snap
out of it but hope it will be soon.
Right now Teoscar Hernandez
and AJ Pollock are struggling
mightily at the plate. Kelenic
had a couple hits and almost
was hurt in the game.
So far no one has been dh very
well at the plate. My opinion
whether Pollock or Taylor Trammell
should be dh for three straight games
no matter facing a righty or lefty.
Platooning isn't working that well.
I would like someone who will get
between nine and twelve at bats
at dh before handing off to someone
else.
Marco Gonzales followed by Bryce
Miller and Logan Gilbert look like they
should win the series in Detroit. This is
why the games are played you never know.
7 MI 8
It would be nice to move the lineup
a little bit more but since Crawford,
France and Kelenic are doing well
and now at the top of the lineup there
is not much else to do except see
can start hitting. They could have Eugenio
bat fifth and Raleigh go to fourth but
might not do a whole lot of good or
difference anyway.
Eugenio who had a good start at
of the season is hitting. 152 for May
and has one home run. Cal Raleigh
who hasn't hit that well on the season
had five home runs in April is hitting
.148 and has no home runs or driven
in any runs in May. Julio had five of
his six home runs in April is batting
.092 and has two rbi's. Tells us
nothing with the guys supposed to
drive in the run
Teoscar Hernandez who started off
bad then improved had seven home runs
in May is hitting .232 but has no home runs
in May and driven in three runs. I rest my
case about the offense.000000 will help the guys. Marco7
Gonzales starts on Friday followed by
Bryce Miller and Logan Gilbert. The
second series beginning on the Monday
with George Kirby. They play in Atlanta for
three before coming home. Hopefully a
good win streak before coming home.
Go M's.
