Seattle Mariners are on the brink of greatness

On the rise

Suarez is already back. J-Rod should be back Monday for the M’s season-ending four-game series with Detroit. Those last four games should help him get back into a groove.

It had to be a big mental boost for Rodriguez when he was named Baseball America’s Rookie of the year this week. Hopefully, he can ride the wave of momentum to a great postseason.

Also, the addition of Kelenic to the roster this month has been a shot in the arm for the team. The Mariners hope he can stay hot when they get to the “REAL SHOW.” 

Overcoming Obstacles

Last week was cause for some nail-biting, as the Mariners sank to 5-9 after September 13th. Baltimore was creeping up on the M’s, making fans nervous. Would the Seattle Mariners choke down the stretch? Are they too young yet to win these close games at crunch time?

One thing that should reassure the faithful is that Seattle seemed to play up to or down to their competition. Another indication of a young team. On the bright side, there are no more bad teams to face in the playoffs.
