Mariners have an opportunity to get several games over .500 in the next 12 games. vs Marlins, vs Angels, @ Texas, @ Sacramento

vs Miami. Marlins are 4-6 in their last 10 games and 3-5 on the road

vs LAA. After a hot start, Angels are now 11-12 and 3-7 in their last 10 games, and they are 7-8 on the road

@ Texas. Here is the roadblock. Avoid getting swept. Get at least one game and serve notice to the Rangers that they have competition in the AL West. Rangers are only 5-5 in their last 10 games but they are 10-3 at home.

@ Sacramento. The A's have turned things around a bit and are 6-4 in their last 10 games, but they are only 3-8 at home.

8-4 over the next 12 is a long shot but not completely unreasonable. 7-5 is a reasonable and attainable expectation. 6-6 would be a disappointment after seeing their recent play, but it would keep them from falling too far back. Anything less than 6-6 would be dismal.

Welp. These guys may actually be good. I’m cautiously optimistic as it’s still way too early to know.

It’s easy for the Mariners to string together a winning streak provided they score 5 or more runs per game

Most teams in baseball cannot accomplish that because they’re pitching staff gives up too many runs in order for 4-5 runs to win most games.

We are getting hitting production up and down the lineup ( minus wherever Foolio is penciled in )

Let’s enjoy it while it lasts. we all know it’s gonna come to an end sooner or later.

But from what I see this ball club is capable of winning 75 to 80 games this season.

And if they get a little lucky… potentially 85 or so games
