The Mariners are in Cleveland today to face the Guardians for the second weekend in a row. After taking three of four from said Guardians on Ichiro Weekend and then decisively sweeping the Tigers in Detroit, the Mariners are playing like a team that’s postseason bound. In case you missed it, rosters expanded yesterday and the Mariners added hometown lefty Matt Boyd and outfielder Taylor Tramell. Both made an appearance in yesterday’s game and may remain with the team for the rest of the season.
This series in Cleveland begins the most difficult stretch of games remaining on the Mariners schedule.
