King Felix vs. Jacob Nix, 7:10pm
Happy Felix Day to you and yours.
The M’s are in San Diego in one of those trap series, one that can really make up some ground in the standings, what with the M’s playing a rebuilding (read: terrible) Padres team while the A’s and Astros slug it out. It’s an opportunity, but it’s also hard to know what to make of it. Sweep the Pads and it’s, “Sure, but that’s just the Padres.” Lose the series, and it’s full-on panic time, especially with Marco Gonzales now on the DL and the team struggling to figure out who to give a spot start to.
