The Mariners are back from their horrible, dreamless slumber, with only a groggy recollection of the night before, and an instinct — call it hangxiety — that it’s best to get up before any memory can sneak through their pounding head. Thankfully, their first appointment has it even worse this morning. Long before the Mariners ended their evening by rattling off grievances with the state of Florida, the Giants were shirtless, pissing outdoors, and singing Morgan Wallen to the downward-glancing eyes of the clothed. We might find it within ourselves to forgive the Mariners, their flaws subtle, inward, universal. The Giants are just assholes.
Speaking of which, Landen Roupp is on the mound tonight. He’s been excellent this year, though a step forward (or to the side) on the mound won’t be what we remember about his season. Facing Roupp is Bryce Miller. He’s been the Mariners best pitcher this year, with a 26% K-BB and 3.12 FIP in 10 outings. After five days off, this turn in the rotation could have gone to anyone, and I’m taking note that it’s Miller who gets the first nod.
The Mariners lineup is just as they left it. All-Star Randy Arozarena is batting second. Former All-Star Cal Raleigh is batting fourth. J.P. Crawford is batting first and playing third; Colt Emerson is batting last and playing short. Luke Raley AND Dominic Canzone are in the lineup. No, Julio Rodríguez is not here tonight. Neither is Brendan Donovan.
