The Mariners are going to be a lot more fun than the “experts” predicted. I’m not saying the Mariners are going to make the playoffs (that would be such a “Mariner” thing to do), but watching the first six games was a ton of fun as a fan. This team battled in every inning of the first six games and different players emerged as heroes.
The energy on the field was contagious. Guys like Mallex Smith and Tim Beckham looked like they were having fun and that is a pleasant change from some of the past Mariner teams.
