BALTIMORE — The Seattle Mariners manufactured runs the way they’ve done many times all season in Monday’s 5-3 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. Now http://www.jacksonvillejaguarsteamonline.com/quincy-williams-ii-jersey , the Mariners will try and do it again on Tuesday in the second game of a four-game series at Camden Yards.
Seattle drew a season-high 10 walks in the win on Monday, and five of them helped lead to four runs. Manager Scott Servais liked how his team kept finding ways to put runners on base and cause problems.
“We had a lot of traffic,” Servais said. “We had the opportunities to score a few more runs — but we’ll take it.”
James Paxton (6-2, 3.72 ERA) will try and break out of a bit of a slump when he starts Tuesday against Kevin Gausman (3-6, 4.38).
Paxton has allowed 10 earned runs and three homers in his last two starts. He’ll try to rebound from that in his third career start against the Orioles — the left-hander has a 1-0 record with a 4.50 ERA versus Baltimore.
Gausman will try to snap a four-game losing streak. The right-hander has not won in his last seven starts despite pitching effectively in several of them.
However, the Orioles have not always given him a lot of offensive support. He is 1-2 with a 3.04 career ERA versus Seattle.
The Mariners got back shortstop Jean Segura Monday after missing four games due to an infection in his arm.
Segura went 0-for-3 in the series opener Monday but made two great defensive plays while Baltimore scored twice in the sixth inning. The Orioles could have scored one or two more, which would have turned the game around.
Catcher Mike Zunino did not play on Monday due to a sore thumb but Servais said he’d return to the lineup for Tuesday’s game.
Servais also said the Mariners can’t overlook the Orioles despite the team’s struggles in the first three months.
“They’ve got power up and down the lineup Ryquell Armstead Jersey ,” he said. “They’ve started to heat up a little bit. You’ve got to make pitches, you got to keep them off-balance.”
The Orioles reinstated infielder Tim Beckham from the 60-day disabled list (left groin strain/surgery) and optioned pitcher Donnie Hart to Triple-A Norfolk. They also transferred infielder Luis Sardinas to the 60-day disabled list (left ankle sprain).
However, the Orioles may have run into another problem when starter Dylan Bundy, who’s been their top pitcher this season, rolled his ankle while running the bases in last weekend’s series with Atlanta.
Manager Buck Showalter said there’s a chance that Bundy will not make his scheduled start in the final game of this series on Thursday. There also is a chance Bundy could go on to the disabled list.
“He’s still scheduled to pitch on Thursday, but it’s something we’re going to have to see and prepare for … in case he can’t,” Showalter told reporters Monday.
Showalter also said Bundy could wind up on the 10-day disabled list. If so Will Harris Jersey , the Orioles would need to do that by Tuesday so they could make it retroactive to Sunday and have Bundy back on the roster faster.
Now more than ever, football is a young man's game. Longevity has always been a prized attribute in the NFL, but even more so during this youth movement. Players able to play well into their thirties and in some instances their forties are remarkable. The body's maintenance calendar becomes a much more complex equation to solve as they get older and with the margin for error so slim in professional football today, losing even a half a step because of a diminished skillset can mean the difference between dominating and dwindling. Guys like Tom Brady and Larry Fitzgerald continue to prove doubters wrong year after year, but they are exceptions to a sad rule.In the case of Fitzgerald, being a wide receiver requires a level of athleticism that is not a basic requirement at QB. If you run like Tom Brady, table any and all dreams of lining up out wide. Fitzgerald continues to put up stellar numbers at the age of 34 and apart from an unsettled quarterback position in Arizona (something out of his personal control) there's little reason to doubt Fitzgerald won't do everything in his power to ensure he continues performing at a high level.Unfortunately http://www.lionsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-austin-bryant-jersey , not all great players stay great. Some fade slowly while others go full-blown nose dive, quickly becoming irrelevant in a league they not long ago owned.Here are 15 once great wide-receivers (some tight-ends, please forgive me) who are showing signs of rapid regression, or who have already fallen as far as one could.
