It’s bizarre looking at the standings and seeing just seven games played next to the Mariners. Three scheduled off days plus a postponement has made for an irregular start to the season. The Royals are the only other team in baseball who have played just seven games—two scheduled off days and two postponements have derailed the start to their season. I guess the benefit is a rested bullpen and fewer games missed for the crew on the disabled list. All that rest will hopefully help them in the second half of the month when they play 17 games in a row.
Series Preview: Mariners (4-3) at Royals (2-5)
