Marco Gonzalez has shown us two seasons already. In March and April, 5 and 0 In a dreadful May and one start in June, 0 and 6. After his last loss he spoke clearly to his need to exert leadership on this team. He blamed no one for his poor turn and committed to do better. At time I speculated an injury, but he denies that.
Without putting more pressure on him, and taking him at his word, his start tonight in Anaheim is important for him and the team. What he and Haniger, who is injured, need to do is to lead these rebuilding Mariners by example. Tonight is Marco's opportunity to begin the rebuild of his team, the recovery of his season.
My money is on Marco. Angels, watch out!
