Beginning this week, I’d like to introduce you to a new SoDo Mojo tradition: we’ll be sharing our opinion on the MVPs of the Seattle Mariners after a week of games played, both for position players and pitchers. Last week, the Mariners faced off with the Houston Astros and the Arizona Diamondbacks, and finished the two series with a 5-1 record; for his performance in the two series, our inaugural weekly MVP will be given to shortstop JP Crawford.
