After a disappointing series loss to the Royals where the offense looked blinkered, the Mariners now have to contend with the high-flying Athletics offense in their pint-sized ballpark. Sounds like a recipe for a good time. Also, per Shannon Drayer, it’s looking like it will be a windy game in Sacramento. Surely that won’t lead to any hijinks, right?

Lineups:

It’s (heavy sigh) piggyback day. Luis Castillo will be the starter this time with Bryce Miller coming out of the bullpen.

News:

Gabe Speier’s return seems imminent, which will help prop up a beleaguered bullpen:

Gabe Speier (left shoulder inflammation) has joined the Mariners here in Sacramento and reported positives after a few Minors rehab outings.

He hasn’t been officially activated, but could happen “soon,” per Dan Wilson.

Also, excitingly, we have a Cal Raleigh update:

Cal Raleigh was slated for light catch play today, Dan Wilson just said.

That represents his first baseball activity since he was placed on the IL.

No timeline yet on his return, but sounds like he’ll remain in Arizona rehabbing for at least a little while longer.
