The Mariners will look to shake off a disappointing weekend series in Detroit – capped by a bummer of a walkoff yesterday – by opening a four-game series against the Orioles in Camden Yards. They’ll be doing so without their starting shortstop, though, as J.P. Crawford was officially placed on the injured list after missing the last two games thanks to a hit-by-pitch on the hand from (who else?) Framber Valdez. Ryan Bliss has been recalled to take his place on the roster.
Lineups:
You might be surprised to
see Bliss in the lineup at the keystone already, but Colt Emerson was a late scratch thanks to back tightness. Don’t like that one bit. Cole Young will take over at shortstop in the interim, and we get a third straight day of Jhonny Pereda behind home plate. Emerson Hancock will take the mound, and will look to stretch his streak of allowing two or fewer runs in a start to five. Trey Gibson will get the start for the O’s, coming up for Chris Bassitt who himself landed on the IL this morning, and we also get to see old friend Leody Taveras batting fifth and playing center field.
