Felix Hernandez and the Mariners take on Cesar Ramos (normally a reliever) and the Tampa Bay Rays. For pretty much the first time since 2008, the Rays are not very good at 16-22 and hopefully the M's will take advantage of this with at least a series win, especially with Felix and Kuma on the mound for two of the games (although, Kuma will face David Price).
Here's a few recent injury updates:
#Mariners report no day-after problems for James Paxton, Taijuan Walker after throwing bullpen workouts Sunday as part of recovery program.
