- A couple of disappointing pieces of news.
No haircut today for skipper. Either Monday or Tuesday in SD is the plan. Nicasio will have clean up surgery on his knee. Done for the year.

- Never make a bet with Edwin.
On the bus to the park #Mariners 1b coach Chris Prieto told me Servais is getting off the hook easy with his bet with Diaz. He had a similar bet with a team Diaz was on in '13 and now has a huge block letter P tattooed on his calf thanks to Pulaski winning the championship.
