a rough stretch

A rough patch, by the numbers. The 1-6 record this week is doing most of the damage. And the bats at 2.3 R/G are the biggest drag right now.

Mariners News

The Seattle Mariners' struggles deepened with a disappointing 2-1 loss to the Texas Rangers, marking their fourth consecutive defeat and leaving them with a 4-7 record. Despite George Kirby's complete game and dominant pitching that has kept opponents to just 3.0 runs per game, the Mariners' offense remains stagnant, averaging a mere 3.4 runs over the last week. J.P. Crawford's slight uptick in performance can't overshadow the team's inability to capitalize on scoring opportunities, as evidenced by their latest one-run defeat. Meanwhile, former Cubs slugger Patrick Wisdom is tearing it up in the minors, adding pressure on the big league roster. As the season progresses, the Mariners must find a way to turn their historically good pitching into wins, or risk letting another season slip away.
