Well that weekend series took a bit of wind out of the Mariners sails. I don’t think anyone expected the Mariners to win the series, especially with Justin Verlander and Gerrit Cole on the mound. But I think we can feel good about how competitively the Mariners played the Astros each game this weekend, even if they didn’t come away with a victory. Progress is being made on some of the Mariners weaknesses (the defense) while others continue to be a source of anxiety (the bullpen). At least we still have dingers!
