Facing a pitcher without much horizontal movement feels like a recipe for Teo to take another step forward. Wentz offers a four-seamer, cutter, and change up ~90% of the time, and the cutter is really a vertical movement pitch, with less than two inches of horizontal break. Joey Wentz gets the start for the Tigers today. Hopefully, the offense can put up a better performance against Detroit’s pitching for the third time in a row. Part of a common theme of the season, that game only took one game off their run differential, but several points off their fun differential. The 2023 Mariners offense being the 2023 Mariners offense, though, left him taking the L anyway. Logan Gilbert is coming off one of the better outings of his career, striking out ten Rangers while walking just one and allowing a measly three hits over six and two-thirds. The pitching matchup looks like a favorable one. The Mariners did what they needed to do in the first two games and now look to complete their third sweep of the season today.
