Last night’s 6-0 good vibes romp at home the Seattle Mariners had over a rival Rangers team was married by only one blemish. It came right before the games close, potentially one out and one strike away, when Trent Thornton made a move on a ball in play to cover first, and stumbled off of the mound, falling to the grass and immediately in obvious pain. Today the Mariners have released more information about the nature of Thornton’s injury, and made a corresponding move. Thornton heads to the 15-day Injured List with a torn left Achilles, and being recalled from Triple-A Tacoma will be RHP Jackson Kowar.
