they are going to be aggressive on kirby early. i hope we can capitalize
Lineup is the same as yesterday. I would have hoped that Clement would be hitting 4th, Barger at 5, Kirk at 6, and Varsho at 7. That would solve the so called lineup construction excuse of spacing out LHBs and RHBs. The Mariners will straight up not pitch to Vlad tonight. I would rather have Ernie getting those opportunities with how exceptional he is been this series, over a guy like Varsho who has been awful hitting wise.
I am hoping Varsho can wake up tonight and save his best game for the last in the series. He has been atrocious (3 for 24 in this series, killing rallies with his Strike Outs and Pop Outs/Fly Outs on bad pitches). However, if he can deliver tonight, all of the prior 6 Games will not mean much. Hoping he can deliver like he did a couple of times like he did against the Yankees. Mariners will not let Vlad beat them, so guys like Kirk, Varsho, and Barger need to hopefully deliver in big spots.
