Mariners Still Can't Score

The Mariners lost to the Marlins Monday night 6-1. Since firing Jeff Petland, Seattle has scored 17 runs in seven games. At some point you have to wonder if firing all the hitters might actually work. Four of the nine Mariner batting slots have aggregate OBAs under .300, and two others are barely above that level.

Andrew Miller pulled his ERA under five as he allowed the one run in seven innings of work. The Marlins keep pace with the Phillies and gain 1/2 game on the Cardinals in the wild card race. The St. Louis injuries may benefit the Marlins the most, as it gives them a chance to gain in that race.
