Guardians @ Mariners Mar 26-29, '26...

They were saving Castillo for the first game against the Yankees.

So he can give up 3 hrs in the first 3 innings... OOOF

Well, I hope you are disappointed in your prediction.

Lets give some Props to Criswell... not sure why he got a save up 7 nothing but regardless.. 5 ks in 3 innings.. 42 pitches very nice

If he gets more outs than they need runs to score, it counts as a save. Not limited to the last inning.

Cold start M's nothing new. BUT our 2,3,4 downright frosty.

It highlights that Young, Rivas, Bliss pretty weak links. Rivas looked feckless, basically forced Donovan to run home with his slow roller to Ramirez fielded 10 feet away from him. After the double steal so Rivas wouldn't hit into a double play.

It's a team sport, but after Young's relay throw to home that would have been on time had it not been halfway up the third base line, he of course was up to bat at the bottom with someone on second and struck out to end the inning. Cut to bottom 10th, Raley gets them within one run and who is ready to come up and strike out to end the game?

Young.

Strike three on momentum killers, strike three to end the game. A little back up would help, but...yikes. Go to Tacoma young man.

Yeah kid go back to Tacoma even though you are one of the only people doing anything to contribute runs hits and on base.. ROFL

If that made you roll on the floor laughing, you may want to up your meds.

Thanks for that tidbit

If you take "ROFL" literally, you need to take a break from the internet

Best outing of Hancock's career. He was phenomenal.

Not to be a pessimist but it's all downhill here for Hancock. Great start but he won't go no-no every outing.

You never know, the kid is 26. This is the age where a lot of pitchers figure out a lot of things. Plus we don't need him to be the Ace, he's a back end rotation pitcher and always has been.

Agreed, but I stand by what I said. He won't throw a no-hitter every game.

Of course not. No one does. Not even close. No hitters are extremely rare. The last time the Cleveland Guardians/Indians had a no hitter was 1981.
