Series Thread: Mariners vs Astros, first home series. April 10-12

Mariners do catch a break here as they are missing Keuchel and McCullers.

I've never been to a home opener today, so i'm looking forward to this even with the terrible week we just witnessed. Paxton needs to be our stopper here and help get this thing turned around.

Starting pitching wasn't the problem on that road trip so It's not Paxton that needs to come to the rescue. The bats (Or at least Cano) finally come alive and they give up the worst 9th inning melt down in team history. It's the pen you want to pray for.

Pazos and Altavilla are bringing it. They need to re-think how they are using Casey Fein. He shouldn't be a late inning reliever. His stuff isn't that good. He should be a middle inning reliever.

And I don't like Diaz as closer. He clearly has the best stuff of anyone in the bullpen but he thinking too much and over-throwing everything. He was showing cracks in the armor late last season and I was kind of surprised that made him closer so quickly going in to this season. When Cishek and Zych get back, I'd like to see Diaz moved back to setup man until he works out the problems in his head.

What exactly is a strike today? Paxton keeps hitting the strike zone and the chUMP keeps calling them balls.

I agree. The ump is stoned out of his fucking mind.
