Put up or shut up time. A chance to pin some losses on the hated 'Stros.

Probables:



TBA-Brian Woo 8-4Hunter Brown 9-4

Reshuffling the deck coming out of the break, and looking at another stretch of 17 games in 17 days, most of which are against AL West teams. Need those bats to stay hot.

Looks like Hunter Brown is going to take the hill Sunday in place of Framber Valdez.

I think if the Mariners can pick up a couple games on Houston this series they have a legit shot at the West title. The M's schedule is a bit easier than Houston's and we have 6 more home games than they do in the second half. We should also improve our roster at the deadline. They are 5 games back right now.

If Cal struggles a bit (or a lot), it's not necessarily because of the HR derby. Cal was already slumping before the all star break. He's hitting for a .128 average so far this month, with only 5 hits (although all 5 of those hits were HR's). Hopefully he can get back on track, but the 2 weeks prior to the break were pretty rough.

There's not much I dislike more than walking the 9 hole hitter to lead off an inning.

If Randy can keep hitting how he is.. you won't see many intentional to Cal, lets hope our top mid of the order really heats up

I'm not taking this season seriously if they keep starting the worst batter in MLB since June
I mean... it still is lineup.. I get you for sure. Id love to see some kinda better utility.. not sure whats up with D Mo lately... probably the lack of consistent at bats... We really move that lineup around WAYY to much at certain positions if you ask me.
