Another Disappointing Road Trip

The Seattle Mariners had an opportunity

to at least split the six game road trip or

win the road trip instead did neither.

On Sunday the Mariners offense tanked it

though the pitching was once again good.

This is becoming a disappointment to the

fans. Only the pitching has been good most

of the season while the offense hasn't though they tease us on occasion what

they did  on Thursday and Friday. The manager can only do so much. The players 

need to look at where success comes in.

It doesn't happen just hitting home runs.

In.this game the two runs were scored on

a two-run homer by Cal Raleigh. In total

they had three hits. 

Kirby on the otherhand went into.the 

seventh inning up one out  before exiting.

He actually gave up two earned runs with

an unearned run. The bullpen kept them

in two score at least four runs.

Another disappointment is the Mariners

made the playoffs for the first time in

over twenty years. The team could turn things around and do the same. Outside 

of playing in the World Series it is the 

first time the Mariners have hosted an

all-star game since 2001. This would 

have given them the chance again to

multiple players on the roster instead 

they probably have one player. If they

have more than one is the league decided 

the home team should have two unless

the Mariners find a way to go on a good

streak for the next couple weeks.

We could blame Jerry Dipoto for not

bringing in more horses and Servais

managing the tram however it comes

down to the position players. We can

analyze each player however what is the 

point. 

The Mariners success further is each

player play what they are capable of.

They don't have to have their best season

just what they are capable. Though

he has lately not played as well as he did earlier Jarred Kelenic has played capable

ball. In fact we don't know what his ceiling

is. Ty France has played well at moments

to. Though he has hit well lately Teoscar Hernandez hasn't and neither has the 

rest of the group. Now start doing it

guys so we can a smile on our face at

the end of season. What is the point

 the pitching does the job but not the

offense. Go M's.
