Mariners After All-star Break

They call it second half of the season  
when the all-star  break  is over however 
the Mariners  have 64 games remaining.
The team record right now 52-46. 

If the Mariners  split the rest of their
games they will have 84 wins. They 
win at  55% rate of right now it would
be only one more win to make at 85.
Most likely  the  Mariners won't  make 
the playoffs at that. A lot  depends 
on how the Astros  do coming down 
the stretch. The Rangers will have to
win at a good rate to beat the Mariners 
or the Astros. 

Julio Rodriguez leads the Mariners with
a batting average  of .267. He has only 
10 home runs and  35 rbi's.  Both are third
on the team. For the team to have real
success it will be important if Julio can
double his home  run  and rbi's. Actually 
the rbi's  be the most important. 

Cal Raleigh has 20 home runs and 61
rbi's.  It would be good if he can stay
at the same rate. Mitch Garver has
12 home runs and 37 rbi's.  If he can
increase his production as well as
Julio that will quite a bit. Adding a
productive  bat in the middle of the
lineup would be the best answer.

The rest of the lineup just do their
part. Get rid of platooning would 
be a good  solution as well. Scoring
four or five runs a game more often
than three or less. Speaking of less 
we have to do that with strikeouts.

They know what they have to do
the thing is will they. The starting 
pitching stay the same and improving 
the bullpen.  Go M's!
