The Mariners got the season underway last night against Oakland and recorded their first win of the season. Which doesn't mean a whole lot because thats exactly how they started off last season but hey, a win is a win and I'll take it! Felix was Felix last night and showed why the Mariners paid him all that money during the off season. Guti's 2 run single in the fifth inning was more than enough for the Mariner's to get a victory after Felix threw 7 2/3 strong innings while recording 8 strikeouts. We all know that Felix can dominate games at will, but do the Mariners have another pitcher that they can lean on when they only score 2 or 3 runs a game? If the M's don't have a pitcher like that in the rotation now, hopefully his last name is Paxton, Hultzen, or Walker or we could be in for a long season again if our big bats we signed in the offseason don't step up. But why am I being so down on the Mariners, they are 1-0 baby let the good times roll!
