Houston Has No Problems: Mariners (58-82) at Astros (90-50)

This is going to be rough. You know it’s going to be rough, We know it’s going to be rough, Orbit knows it’s going to be rough and is sharpening his weird alien teeth at the prospect of feasting on the lowly Mariners. But as unpleasant as this series promises to be, it’s coming at a fairly opportune time for the Mariners, who have the suddenly-disastrous Colorado Rockies nipping at their heels for the sixth draft pick. The Rockies have lost NINE in a row and face an unfavorable slate for the rest of the year, so as unpleasant as it might be to watch these games, the outcome of a road loss isn’t the worst thing for the Mariners, who have a slightly easier go of it down the stretch.
