All of these repeated, bizarre wins might defy explanation, but nobody’s complaining. With the team pretty much at full strength at this point (a certain second baseman notwithstanding), there’s no real reason it has to stop soon!
I mean, just look at this lineup.
| TAMPA BAY RAYS | SEATTLE MARINERS |
|---|---|
| Daniel Robertson - SS | Dee Gordon - 2B |
| C.J. Cron - 1B | Jean Segura - SS |
| Matt Duffy - 3B | Mitch Haniger - RF |
| Wilson Ramos - DH | Nelson Cruz - DH |
| Johnny Field - CF | Kyle Seager - 3B |
| Rob Refsnyder - LF | Ryon Healy - 1B |
| Carlos Gomez - RF | Denard Span - LF |
| Christian Arroyo - 2B | Guillermo Heredia - CF |
| Jesus Sucre - C | Mike Zunino - C |
| Chris Archer - RHP | Marco Gonzales - LHP |
It’s hard to feel bad about any aspect of this lineup, aside from the pining many of us will be doing for Chris Archer.
