This is an 8* play on SEATTLE

Texas made a pitching change overnight as it will now be Jesse Chavez starting, but that should hardly matter against a Seattle team that beat them, 6-2, last night. May has been a bad month for the Mariners but they have a chance to end it on a positive note facing a team they have some major revenge to exact upon. Before last night's games, Texas had beaten them five straight times. But that's now a thing of the past as Seattle rediscovered an offense that started out the season so hot. The Mariners still average 5.1 runs/game. Something that must be considered is that while Chavez will be "opening" this game for the Rangers, Seattle will still get to face originally scheduled starter Adrian Sampson, who has a 7.66 ERA this year. Sampson should come in quickly (after an inning or two) following Chavez. The Mariners go with Gonzales, who started the year 5-0. Despite a slide, he still has decent numbers and two starts against the Rangers have seen him give up only two runs in 14 innings. Play on SEATTLE
