Time for a little "RAY" of sunshine game thread (6-17-21)

[TLO Idaho]

The M's have a very tough schedule the next 9/10 games. Time for a new win streak.
Lineups to follow.

Terry rolls in with "Future's so bright, I gotta wear shades!" GT title love it. Go M's. Go Tlo!

Start a win streak, Idaho! Throw the "Devil" Rays from the warm, coastal, Atlantic Ocean waters into the cold depths of Puget Sound. Let our denizens of the deep do battle with them.

Tampa's pitcher today, LH Rich Hill celebrated his 41st birthday on June 15th. What the hell is this geriatric 17 year veteran doing, still pitching?

He's 5-2, 3.38 ERA in 13 starts. 68 K's in 66.2 innings (5.09 innings per). 23 walks + 5 HBP, 45 hits (8 HRs), that's what he is doing.
What will 25 y.o. Mariner's RH Dunn be doing in 17 years?

In other news , DT will be interested that Ian McKinney has been moved to Tacoma, finally maybe he will get a shot sometime to see if he is a viable commodity next time someone gets a hangnail

We will see if he has enuf or if his talent topped out in AA. He'll be 27 soon, 8 year minor leaguer, mostly w/Cardinals. This'll be the highest level for the LH, 5'11 mostly starter. He has averaged more than a K per inning the last couple of years. No record at all in 2020, as with most minor leaguers.

Might just be the Sheffield replacement guy
