Mariners 3, Angels 1: M's score three in eighth, but too late for Felix Hernandez

Mariners Blog | Seattle Times — Just as manager Daren Brown planned it, no doubt: get Felix Hernandez out of there after 103 pitches through seven innings, then let the offense score three in the eighth to overcome a 1-0 deficit and win.

  • Numbers don't support contention that C.C. Sabathia "knows how to win" better than Felix Hernandez Mariners Blog | Seattle Times Came across this blog post by longtime Hartford Courant baseball writer Dom Amore, who covers the Yankees. Amore's a good guy and knows his stuff. But I think he's wrong in his contention that Felix Hernandez should be dropped from Cy Young consideration because he doesn't "know how to win" when the chips are down. On the other hand, Amore lauds C.C. Sabathia of the Yankees for this ability in the following blog passage: "Sabathia doesn't have 19 wins by accident. He has them because he holds leads, finds ways on nights when he doesn't have it, such as in Chicago last weekend, and goes deep ...
  • What else is new: M's bats go meekly Tacoma News-Tribune Athletics 6, Mariners 2: Vargas’ early struggles continue, and Seattle’s impotent offense has no answer | OAKLAND – The Seattle Mariners offense is so consistently awful that after any loss, it falls to the pitching staff to largely explain what happened.
  • Wan Gutierrez still better than ruddy alternatives Tacoma News-Tribune mariners notes: Still feeling effects of virus, center fielder homers in return to the lineup | OAKLAND – Franklin Gutierrez looked a bit wan Monday morning – and everyone with the Seattle Mariners thought that was an improvement.
  • Jason Vargas hit hard early in 6-2 Mariners loss to A's Seattle Times Jason Vargas's first three pitches resulted in a home run and triple as Oakland beat the Seattle Mariners.
  • Jason Vargas looking like he's been through a long season Mariners Blog | Seattle Times Jason Vargas has done more than most people, myself included, thought he would this year. But now, after 169 1/3 innings pitched, it looks like some of it is catching up to him. Part of that might be the workload, which is almost 80 more innings and counting than Vargas threw last year in establishing his major league high. And while he's still a dozen innings shy of his all-time professional mark, set in 2005, most of that came in the minor leagues. Any pitcher will tell you the wear and tear on your arm is more severe in the majors than below. That's because each pitch up here has to be a gu...
