half a billion

  • Wednesday, April 20, 2022

Las Vegas - Looking out West again tonight and taking the Mariners over the Rangers. Sure Texas threw hundreds of millions at a few key players like Corey Seager ($325 million over 10 years) and Marcus Semien ($175 million over 7 years). That's HALF A BILLION BUCKS for just two players, offensive guys, but the pitching is still suspect. Dane Dunning gets the start this evening for the Rangers and he has not impressed anyone. In two starts, Dunning has been rocked for 11 hits and 5 earned runs in just 8 innings (5.62 ERA). On the other side of the field, Logan Gilbert gets the nod for Seattle, and his first two starts have been gorgeous. He has allowed only 1 earned run over 10 innings (0.90 ERA) and picked up 11 Ks along the way. Gimme the Mariners for the money!
