Seattle will stroll into town after one of their more successful series in recent memory, taking 3 of 4 from the Angels at the Big A. However, this would come after a mini-sweep at hands of the last place Padres. They’ve done it while utilizing a mostly top-heavy offense that showed up big in the most recent Angels series, though pitching has certainly been a big part for Seattle as well.
The offense was mostly driven by Haniger, Cruz, and Seager, who would all post an OPS between 1.060 and 1.095 with at least 20 AB. The recent hot streak by Kyle Seager is a most welcome development for the M’s as they’ve been waiting a majority of the season for him to return to form, though it is looking to be too little, too late.
