Ariel Miranda vs. Gio Gonzalez, 9:05 am (?)

ESPN’s Tim Kurkjian passed along this fun fact on twitter this morning:

Mariners joined 1887 Washington, 1969 Padres as teams to score no more than 1 run 5 games row, and opponents scored at least 40 total runs

It’s one of those highly specific, carefully-worded jobs, but it sums up what it’s felt like to follow this team this past week. I’m trying to keep a more even keel, and remind myself that they’re simply not as bad as they’ve looked: no one’s as bad as the M’s have looked.
