Preview of athletics against Mariner’s series

The A’s are back home and will welcome a division competitor with Sacramento for the first time. The Seattle Mariners will come to the Sutter Health Park for the first time to be a critical series for these two high -quality young teams.

Seattle sits on the division in this series with a record of 20-13. You have overcome a rough first week of the season and have been one of the hotter teams in the league since then because they went 17: 6 in the last 23 games. Seattle can attribute a large part of her early success to a starting personnel who has been one of the best in the entire sport until the first month of the season. Two of her starter have sub-3 era, two have sub-4 marks, and their first starter was much better than his conclusion numbers after a rough start. Your bullpen, led by closer Andres Munoz (12 parades) was approximately above average because they have a group of 3.66 ERA. The bats will have a challenge in the next few days.

Your crime was led by the catcher Cal Raleighwho currently leads the entire baseball in Homeruns at 12 Julio Rodriguez. For a team that added nothing to their offensive in the low season, they were an overall solid group with contributions JP CrawfordPresent Randy ArozarenaPresent Jorge Polanco And Dylan Moore.

The competition on Monday evening will see the right -handers of athletics Luis Severino Take the ball for his seventh year. He was on a role over his last four starts when he thrown 24 ²⁄₃ Ining and allowed only six runs that dropped his ERA from 4.01 to a much better mark of 3.30 in the season. On the opening day, he threw six innings against these marine on six shutout -ininnings and the A will hope that he can reproduce this to open the series.

The attack by Severino for Seattle will be correct Bryce Miller. In his third season as a Big League Starter Miller was hot and cold and enabled either three or more runs or one or two runs to cross the home plate. The last time he came out of five shutout inside on the hill. If he follows his own pattern, he should give a few runs on the A tonight. He has a 3.52 -appointment over six starts this season when he is preparing to start his first start in Sutter Health Park.

The second game of the series on Tuesday evening should be a matchup between AS Linfty Jeffrey Springs And m is right Emerson Hancock. The last time the 32-year sources finally put together a high-quality appearance and threw six shutout frames against the Texas Rangers, while he only allowed two base runners. That was probably his best start to the season, an encouraging sign for the veteran after 4.98 ERA had to struggle up to that time. He will try to build this beginning tomorrow against the Mariners, which he has confronted with great results (6 IP, 3 h, 0 uhs) this season.

Hancock, on the other hand, started the season in the Seattle rotation, but was shaken for six deserved runs in his first season trip. That brought him a bit of downgrading for Triple-A, but he quickly earned back to Seattle. Since he was reminded that he looks much more like a former selection of the 1st round and this 62-season era that he has, he does not say how well he pitch when entering this series.

The Mariners will be completed the series on Wednesday afternoon and send their third right -hander into the hill in a row in Bryan Woo. The 25-year-old like Miller and Hancock is also a starting jug for the Mariners in season and was probably the best starting jug from Seattle this season. In none of his six starts he recorded less than six full innings and only gave up four runs once. That year he has an ERA of 2.58 that leads the team. Not an easy Matchup for athletics.

Athletics has a planned starter at the time of this article, but all the signs indicate right -handed rookie Gunnar Hoglund Get nod for his second career. The rookie made his debut in the big league last week and looked fantastic. He closed the Miami Marlins for six innings from One-Run ball and did not collect seven strikeouts to any permissible walks. This continued for Hoglund in a strong season after having a good start in Triple-A. The former 1st round can continue to consolidate its grip for the fifth Starter Platz with another quality trip to end the series on Wednesday afternoon.
