Mariners lose to White Sox

Main meaning of spring training is getting
the team ready for the regular season and
seeing the youngsters as well.

Bryce Miller gave up one run in the first
of two innings. He did strike out three
which is a good sign. The White Sox 
won 6-5. They got three of the six runs
in the seventh inning. Gabe Speier gave
up two runs in the third. 

The Mariners had two starting position
players who started in Mitch Garver
and Luke Raley. Neither got a hit in
two at bats.  Garver started at catcher 
instead of dh and Raley at first. May see
some action there during the season.

Luis Urias was the dh. Hasn't played
any third base yet because of his
shoulder. If he isn't able to play the
field when the season starts likely
will begin on the injured list since 
Garver is expected to be the primary
dh. There is talk Ty France could play
some third as well as second base
and first. This would give Raley more
at first and Canzone in the outfield.

Cade Marlowe had a couple hits 
including a double so he isn't out of 
the mix either. Brian Anderson who
the Mariners signed as a minor league
invitee played third and a two run 
homer in the second inning. His
major league experience has been
at third and right field so if Urias
isn't ready to start the season he
could have a spot to start season.

Cole Young continues to show this
spring he had his first homer of
spring and Rysn Bliss had a hit too.

Though not many roster spots to be
made some guys can make it
interesting. The future looks bright
to. Go M'S.
