Mariners Take Game Two

When a team is struggling it is
nice to take on the worst team
in the major leagues to recover.

The Mariners had another game 
where they could score some 
runs an Saturday evening was
that again.

The White Sox scored first in 
the third inning came up with
one run.  Luis Robert Jr.  scored
on a single after he got on base
on a throwing error by Josh Rojas
that Tyler Locklear couldn't handle
at first.

The Mariners didn't take long with
Jorge Polanco hitting a solo home
run. Dylan Moore and Josh Rojas each
had dingles driving in two ones making
it 3-2 in the fourth. They scored two
more runs in the fifth when Cal Raleigh
hit a home run followed by Polanco 
second one of the day. Later in the 
eighth Randy Arozarena had his first
single as a Mariner than scored on Polanco's third hit of  the day a single.
As you can imagine Polanco wanted 
to hit a home run however extending 
the lead was what important. The 
White Sox had their third run in the eighth.
Final  Mariners 6  White Sox 3

Bryan Woo started out well however only
went four innings throwing seventy pitches.
Collin Snider pitched the fifth followed 
by Austin Voth in the sixth.

Yimi Garcia made his debut in the seventh.
Gregory Santos was back in the 8th 
struggling a little bit giving up the third
run. Wouldn't expect him to.pitch Sunday.
Andre Munoz took care of the ninth.

The question is will the Mariners make
another deal before the deadline. At
this point they have only traded three
prospects. The only top one traded 
was Jonatan Clase trade to Toronto.
The two for Randy were further done
in the second part of the top 20.
Room to do more damage. The could
trade a couple in the top ten and someone
else between 11 and 20 along with 21
through 30. 

The recent draft brings two more 
pitchers into the top ten and a few
maybe into the top 20. Leaves a lot of 
prospects they could move a few along.

Bryce Miller will start Sunday afternoon
in Chicago. The Red Sox series hasn't been
listed yet who will start. Good chance 
Logan will start Monday followed by Luis
Castillo on Tuesday. Wednesday not sure of. Go M's.
