95% of the time, giving up early on a player who sucks in a Mariner uniform is the right thing to do, but it's looking like Solano might fall under the other 5%. He's just killing the ball and is looking a lot more like the guy who's done nothing but rake the last six years.

We'd still better add bats before the trading deadline though and not just assume that when Robles comes back we're all set.

Our formula to winning is POWER. We hit the homerun ball with runners on = we win.

I wish to God we played small ball and then had some power but no one is smart enough to figure that out yet.
Arozarena and Young each delivered timely base knocks with 2 ducks on the pond. Julio had the RBI groundout.

Raley on Saturday delivered some good hits with RISP.

But to your point, need more of this. With Raley, Canzone, Solano and Young all swinging good bats in addition to the aircraft carrier that is Cal right now, plus OBP machine in JP, this lineup can do some things. Polanco has been better of late, too. If we ever get anything out of Rodriguez, we could catch fire like we did in 22 and rip off 10+ wins, 15 of 18, 25 of 33 or something. That's what we need. That 25 of 33, 34.
That's IF Kirby can get his shit together and stay healthy along with Logan. Also they need one of Miller Hitchcock Evans to step up.
