The Seattle Mariners have had an eventful few days, getting no-hit, turning over a good portion of their roster, then doing it again after a potential COVID-19 outbreak with one positive test and a trio of close contacts out for at least seven days. After being swept by one of the league’s worst teams, they get a chance to right the ship against a club on pace to win 99-100 games!
The San Diego Padres have glowed up dramatically and can be forgiven for seeing themselves as the Penn State to the Mariners’ Temple, which is a comparison that reads far differently if you are not a longtime college football fan but trust me it’s apt.
