What are we supposed to do with this team, y’all?
I don’t trust ‘em - none of us should, but damned if they’re not making it fun to watch Mariners baseball right now. A sentence I genuinely did not think I’d write all season, but one I’m begrudgingly typing out tonight. Goodness knows they haven’t earned it. Their pitching remains as sturdy as a gaping hole in the floor patched up with carefully crisscrossed duct tape, and their lineup has anywhere from 2.75-3.28 major league hitters on it at the start of each game.
But those Yusei Kikuchi-pitching-four-hitless-innings tingles?
