A peek behind the curtain?


Maybe, just maybe, last night's 9 to 2 win over the A's provided a glimpse of what the 2021 Mariners will look like.

Pitching?  Marco was right on track.  He threw a lot of pitches in the first few innings, then settled down giving up only one earned run over seven.  He seemed to grow stronger as the game progressed. The bullpen of Adams and Festa, to everyone's amazement, pitched two scoreless innings in a non-save situation.

Offense?  The new guys all the way.  Multiple hit games from Narvaez, Crawford and Williamson.  Dingers from Mallex and Omar.  Two walks and a run scored from Vogie.  All this without Haniger or Encarnacion in the line-up.

Defense.  Eh... a Gordon error on a throw on s tough play he should have just eaten.  Two slick doubleplays both started by JP.

If they play like this they could win some games.

Maybe.
