Mariners News
Bryan Woo's struggles continued as the Mariners fell to the Royals 7-6, marking a disappointing follow-up to his previous rough outing against the Cardinals. With just one strikeout in three innings and a WPA of -0.038, it's becoming harder to view these as mere blips on the radar for a pitcher hailed as one of the league's rising stars. Compounding issues, the Mariners also placed key setup man Matt Brash on the 15-day IL due to lat inflammation, further straining a bullpen already feeling the pressure. As the team sits at 16-17, fans must wonder if they can regain momentum against Kansas City, especially with Woo needing to find answers to avoid a third straight letdown on the mound.
