First, dramatic news from the desk of TANKWATCH 2020:
After being comfortably ensconced in 6th position for weeks and even sliding into 5th recently as the Blue Jays went on a mini-surge, series wins against both the Rays and those self-same Blue Jays, combined with the relentless ineptitude of the Pittsburgh Pirates organization, has pushed the Mariners back to the seven slot. Friends, my Jared Kelley dreams are evaporating before my eyes and I am VEXED. I am happy the Mariners are playing fun baseball and all but can they save the winning for when they are at home in front of Mariners fans instead of doing their best tricks for empty seats under artificially-lit domes?
