Mariners at Blue Jays, June 29-July 1

The Mariners are coming to Buffalo for this season's first clash between the expansion cousins of '77. (Let's get this up tonight - the Orioles thread is getting somewhat bloated, as often happens after four games.)

Seattle finds itself in a position rather like Toronto's - they have a respectable enough 41-38 record, but first place in the division looks like a long way to go. Which puts them in the hunt for the Wild Card game. Gosh, they be fielding a pretty decent team, no?

No. The trick has been done with mirrors - Seattle has given up 43 runs more than they've scored.
