Seattle's pitching staff went into Sunday not having permitted multiple runs in any of the group's last 11 games, with the M's holding their adversaries to three or less runs in everything except one of those games. Not unintentionally, Seattle is 9-2 over that stretch.

The Mariners' pitching leaps out to MLB Network's Jon Morosi, who sees groups from everywhere the association all through the season face to face.

"I have not seen many groups that are as profound and as sure of their pitching as the Mariners are at the present time," Morosi expressed Thursday in his week by week discussion with Seattle Sports' Wyman and Bob. "… I believe Houston's likely the another group in the American League whose pitching right presently looks on par with what Seattle's, and truly (Astros expert Justin) Verlander just went on the IL. The present moment, assuming that I'm Seattle, I'm having a great outlook on the manner in which my pitching lines up. I glance around and I don't see such a large number of clear shortcomings. … So full credit to (supervisor) Scott Servais that they have things arranged astoundingly well right now for the Mariners' pitching."

Morosi is known for having an uplifting perspective when he joins Wyman and Bob, and he conceded as much in the meeting. He then added it's not elusive motivations to be certain about the M's at the present time.

"Generally I'm Mr. Optimism yet my idealism scanner resembles getting everything at this moment. There's not a ton to see a problem with right now," he said of the M's.

There are various explanations behind Morosi offering those expressions, especially with regards to Seattle's pitching. The following are a couple of them he hit on while conversing with Dave Wyman and Bob Stelton.

An alternate aspect in the warm up area
The Mariners opened their excursion with a 9-3 win over the Tigers in Detroit on Tuesday, and they utilized their sizable early lead to give that day's starter, newbie George Kirby, a rest. So they went to Chris Flexen, who was moved from the beginning revolution to the warm up area after Seattle's exchange cutoff time obtaining of Luis Castillo, who gave them four innings to finish off the triumph.

"I think Flexen, the way that he has pitched and clearly having a generally excellent trip on Tuesday in that game, I think sets a great tone for pitching profundity," Morosi said. "… You see a person like Flexen coming in, giving you four innings for the series opener - clearly he's been somewhat minimized in light of the appearance of Castillo and the way that (George) Kirby has pitched - yet he will be a person that you will have to hear from in the period of October, which is the manner in which the Mariners are going."

The 28-year-old Flexen pitched well as a starter this season, and he presently possesses a 3.92 ERA in 24 appearances (21 beginnings). Having his capacity to go various innings could be huge for Seattle in the event that they make the end of the season games and play a three-game series in the special case round.

"Assuming that you're playing Game 3, indeed, you have a beginning pitcher, however that is an everyone ready and available game," Morosi said. "… I think you have such countless choices right now as the Mariners (out of the warm up area) that the starter of that game, it's anything but a bit of hindsight however it's not as large of a choice since whoever comes in the fourth or fifth inning will be similarly as gigantic of a choice."

The two youthful firearms
While Flexen is in the warm up area, the Mariners have two local champions helping keep an eye on everything in the revolution in Logan Gilbert and Kirby.

Gilbert, 25, has returned areas of strength for with in his last two trips after a tough situation in August, most remarkably Thursday when he held the Tigers scoreless on only two hits and a stroll more than six innings.

"The way that he has pitched of late, I've been truly dazzled," Morosi said of Gilbert. "I think the center piece of the year there was perhaps a smidgen of a diminishment in his stuff, however he has popped right back and looks extraordinary. That to me is a truly consoling step for the Mariners."

The 24-year-old Kirby, in the mean time, was named American League Rookie of the Month for August in the wake of posting a 2.15 ERA with 34 strikeouts to only three strolls north of five beginnings (29 1/3 innings) in the month.

"He merits more recognition than he's been given, I think, and he's somebody that the Mariners inside generally discussed as being somebody that they were amped up for and planned to look to for the future," Morosi said of Kirby.

Something specifically with Kirby leaps out to Morosi, which is his improvement of a two-crease fastball gained from individual Mariners starter Robbie Ray in the season that has made him all that more hard for hitters to sort out. Furthermore, that is a really noteworthy thing coming from a tenderfoot.

"One point I'll make about him and his fitness, I think, A, he's in the zone constantly; and B, this new variety of the pitch that he got from Ray like a month prior, correct? It resembles very nearly an unhittable pitch," Morosi said. "What's more, when you are sufficiently sure (to foster another pitch during the season), I feel that is a certain something (you consider to be a) characteristic of the greats. Verlander has reconsidered himself and (Clayton) Kershaw as well as they go through their profession - and unquestionably Kirby's simply beginning his excursion. In any case, what I love about him is that I find in him a capacity to adjust and add another pitch, and he won't hesitate to give that new pitch and work a shot it.
