Seattle showed up Monday and punched Baltimore in the mouth, 6-3, on Josh Naylor's 5th-inning grand slam off rookie Trey Gibson. Randy Arozarena had 3 hits, and the M's are now 10 of their last 13. The Orioles, meanwhile, have dropped 3 straight for the first time since getting swept in Tampa in late May. Camden Yards is supposed to be the place this team rights itself — that's not how it's going.
The injury sheet is doing the Orioles no favors either. Ryan Mountcastle isn't back until late June at the earliest, Jordan Westburg is out post-Tommy John, and the rotation has been hollowed out — Zach Eflin (TJ), Cade Povich, Dean Kremer all on the shelf, with Chris Bassitt only just rejoining the team and eyeing a return. Seattle's banged up too — Cal Raleigh is on a rehab assignment, J.P. Crawford is on the 10-day with the hand, and Colt Emerson got scratched Monday with back tightness — but the M's lineup punched through anyway.

Pinnacle has the Mariners as -116 favorites with a total of 8.5, which feels honest given the pitching gap. If Rogers' Boston start was the start of a turnaround, the under and a Baltimore bounce-back are live. If it was a mirage, the Orioles are staring down a sweep with a lineup that went 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position the night before. Bet on the pitcher with the 3.79 until Trevor proves otherwise.
