What is the story about?
Good morning and happy Sunday everybody!
The Mariners won yesterday thanks to a dominant performance from Bryce Miller, who now has the longest active scoreless streak of any pitcher in the league against one team, and some early offense. The Mariners will go for the series win this morning at 10:40 PST.
In Mariners news…
- Josh Naylor has not done anything to ingratiate himself with the city of Detroit so far this weekend.
- The ferry boat shaped food trays have breached T-Mobile Park containment, and will now be available for purchase on all Washington State Ferries!
Around the league…
- The New York Yankees placed catcher Austin Wells on the 10-day IL with cervical headaches.
- New York Mets infielder Jorge Polanco has had his rehab assignment shut down by the team, and is being brought back to Queens to receive imaging on the ankle that sent him to the IL.
- Before Pride Night at Dodger Stadium last night, the Los Angeles Dodgers unveiled a new, permanent display honoring the lives of Glenn Burke and Billy Bean.
- The trade deadline is now less than two months away, and some teams are having to come to terms that 2026 might not be their year. One such team is the Boston Red Sox, who have a surplus of catchers on their roster, as well as some effective arms in their bullpen. The Sox aren’t truly out of it (yet) but their upcoming schedule may solidify them as sellers within the next couple weeks.
- The Milwaukee Brewers traded some cash to the A’s for right-handed reliever Joel Kuhnel.
- I suspect the Twins marketing team is one more inconvenient roster move away from a very strongly worded email to the baseball ops department.
