Logan Goes The Distance

Logan Gilbert had his best game
of the season pitching a complete
giving up five hits, no walks and
seven walks. This was the first 
shutout and complete game of
his career. He showed us what
he is capable of what he can do.
It would be nice if he do more of
this the rest of the way. On his
regular rotation Logan should
start the last game on Sunday
before the all-star break.

Seattle 6  San Francisco 0

Speaking of the all-star game it
was announced before the game
George Kirby and Julio Rodriguez
were added on. I am sure most
Mariners fans would agree he 
should have been on the team in
the first place

Mike Ford was the hitter of the 
game with four hits including a
home run all on his birthday. He
said after the game this was the
first time he was on a major league
roster on July 4. Congratulations 
Mike!  In his last seven games Ford
has batted .500 raising his average
to .279. He played first base again
with Ty France taking off another 
day off after clidding in the last game
against the Rays on Sunday. See if he
returns Wednesday evening. If France
is in the lineup be good to see him
at dh for a game. Ford has done a
good job at first base too.

Tommy Milone is expected to start
Wednesday's game in the final game
of the series against the Giants. In
his last start for the Mariners he took
the spot early on in the season in
place of Marco Gonzales. 

The Mariners will have to make a move for Milone to start. He is taking the spot of Bryce Miller who was added to the injured
list for the blister in his last start. He should return shortly after the all-star
break. 

No announcement yet however Kirby
should start Thursday against the
Astros Thursday followed by Luis 
Castillo, Bryan Woo and Logan Gilbert.
Go M's.
