A game thread posted on time! Hooray! The Mariners are going for their first sweep of the year today, with Félix taking the hill against someone called Josh Lucas.
A friend returns to the lineup!

David Freitas gets the start behind the plate for the getaway day, while Ryon Healy is getting the day off. Daniel Vogelbach will play first in his stead, and Guillermo Heredia is back in the two-spot. For a C-at-best lineup, this doesn’t look too bad!
In his last outing against Oakland, Félix spun six decent innings of three-run ball, albeit with four walks. Anything similar would be much appreciated, and a bullpen that has become more and more rested the past few days should be able to effectively step in otherwise.
