Mariners have 5 guys in their lineup with the first initial J while the Reds only have 3. Also the Ms have them stacked in the 8-9-1-2-3 slots in the lineup. We will have to see if this does not come to bite them should the Reds turn to Justin Wilson in relief.

Against RHPs, I'd drop CES to 6 and move Fraley and EDLC up. Something like:

1. India (R) 2B
2. Benson (L) CF
3. Fraley (L) RF
4. Steer (R) LF
5. De La Cruz (S) SS
6. Encarnacion-Strand (R) 1B
7. Candelario (S) 3B
8. Martini (L) DH
9. Stephenson (R) C

M’s off to their annual slow start. George Kirby has been very hittable so far in 2024. Get hits while you can cuz he’s not gonna walk you.

M’s will go 35-10 at some point this year. Hopefully after the Reds leave town

I read Redszone specifically for posts like this.

I'll be there, look for the guy dressed like a banana

Julio Rodriguez has been a total bust as my #1 pick on my fantasy team. Here's hoping that he stinks for 3 more games.

Seattle is starting he game at 9:42 instead of their usual 9:40 first pitch for Jackie Robinson's birthday.

Saw Rachel Robinson was at the Mets game. Imagine being 101 years old and still going to baseball game.
I'm nearly half her age and almost passed out walking back to the car last summer at the Reds game.

She lives in my building 200 East 66th street in Manhattan

Mariners have a good deal of talent. Off to a slow start. I hope that lasts 3 more days.

[LiferJim]

Not a fan of these late west coast games. Hopefully Frankie gets back on track tonight.

Go Reds!

...and you get a Junior Bobblehead.

mlb.tv game with the REDS' broadcast is, of course, blacked out here in the Portland/Vancouver area.

Will be watching the Mariners' broadcast.

I had planned four months ago to be at today's game, but circumstances changed and I was down south at the Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival with the Spouse and her Mom instead. We had a great time and now I can root for the REDS from home. Got 10 days with just the wife coming up in 6 weeks, so that's fine.

The only way to get to Kirby is to get to him in the 1st inning. Let him get warmed up and it's all over until he leaves after 7 innings.
