Maybe, just maybe, the payoffs from the Dipoto led and inspired rebuilding of the Seattle Mariners was seen in last night's victory against the Cincinnati Reds. Maybe.
This season has seen a lot of major league debuts, but I've really looked forward to Kyle Lewis. He lived up to the hype. He hit the ball hard in a groundout in his first at bat, then blasted a home run to left-center for his first hit ever. He looked comfortable at the plate, less so in the field, but altogether a symbolic and encouraging start. Only makes me more excited to see Kellenic, J-Rod and Evan White. Maybe.
Less maybe, more probably, Justus Sheffield made his fourth start and pitched well. This kid has an mlb slider and he gave up one run in six strong innings. Each time he looks a little better and it's speculating how high his ceiling may be. Here's hoping Dunn, who should pitch soon, is just as good.
