You may remember the last time Jharel Cotton faced the Mariners at the beginning of August. If not, the summary takes one word: Pounded. He was pounded by the big bats of Kyle Seager (three-run homer) and Nelson Cruz (two dingers both 400+ feet bombs). In total, he gave up 6 earned runs, yet he went six innings, his longest stint since coming off the disabled list.
Cotton leads the team with 10 losses on the season and is 7th in the American League for losses. He gives up 1.72 homeruns per 9 innings, though he also strikes out 7.
