After last night’s league-leading 3rd one-run win, the Mariners are once again facing the Cleveland Guardians. Today looks to be an excellent pitching matchup as Luis Castillo prepares to duel Shane Bieber in a rematch of last year’s Opening Day. The Mariners jumped on Bieber for six hits but failed to score a run on that occasion, eventually winning by making James Karinchak collapse like a dying star.
In other news, the Mariners have just claimed Sammy Peralta off waivers from the White Sox. Kate has the story here. And Taylor Trammell has now gone to a good home, being picked up by the LA Dodgers.
