Tuesday, the club continued its climb up the American League Wild Card standings by staying true to its identity- <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mariners-news-seattle-promote-pitching-prospect-emerson-hancock" rel="noopener">pitching</a>. And boy did Logan Gilbert deliver on that front.</p><p>The former first-round pick matched some <a href="https://twitter.com/ESPNStatsInfo/status/1689120649518653440" rel="noopener">special franchise history</a> in the M’s 2-0 home win over the San Diego Padres. He became just the team’s second pitcher to throw 10-plus strikeouts while giving up one or fewer hits and walking no batters. Gilbert enters ratified air only shared by Felix Hernandez, who accomplished the same feat when he threw a perfect game against the Tampa Bay Rays in 2012.</p><p>Let that sink in. The 26-year-old right-hander just put together an outing that the club had not witnessed since King Felix became the 23rd man to attain perfection over a decade ago. (Domingo German became No. 24 in June).</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Logan Gilbert just put up the 2nd performance in <a href="https://twitter.com/Mariners?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Mariners</a> history of 10+ strikeouts, 0 walks, and 1 or fewer hits allowed.</p><p>The other was Félix Hernández' perfect game. <a href="https://t.co/LkJpQwYAh3">pic.twitter.com/LkJpQwYAh3</a></p><p>— ESPN Stats &amp; Info (@ESPNStatsInfo) <a href="https://twitter.com/ESPNStatsInfo/status/1689120649518653440?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 9, 2023</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Gilbert joins true Mariners royalty with his masterful seven-inning showing (12 strikeouts, one hit allowed). He stifled the star-studded Padres lineup and struck out Juan Soto three times. Most importantly, his dominance extends Seattle’s winning streak to six. The team is now just two games out of a playoff spot and even has a fighting chance in the AL West (6.5 GB).</p><p>Scott Servais’ squad entered 2023 with reasonably high expectations after finally ending a 21-year postseason drought last season. They played mediocre baseball nearly the entire first half but have since awakened, ironically after <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/diamondbacks-news-arizona-acquires-closer-paul-sewald-trade-mariners" rel="noopener">trading reliable closer Paul Sewald</a>.</p><p>While the Mariners did not act like a contender at the MLB trade deadline, they are certainly playing like one now. Logan Gilbert (10-5, 3.66 ERA) has been a key part of the turnaround and will have to stay sharp if the M’s are to book their second consecutive postseason trip.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Gilbert found specific success against the Houston Astros…which bodes well for Seattle ahead of their ALDS clash with Houston. Gilbert is scheduled to start Game 1 against the Astros, a team in which he posted a 2.52 ERA against in 25 innings this year, <a href="https://twitter.com/jonmorosi/status/1579484581807652866" rel="noopener">per Jon Morosi</a>.</p><p>Morosi also reported that Logan Gilbert’s 22 strikeouts against the Astros were the second most in 2022, trailing only Shohei Ohtani’s mark of 45. The 25-year old has displayed clutch prowess on the mound for the team. He was arguably the Mariners’ best pitcher following a tremendous start to the season.</p><p>With that being said, the MLB playoffs are a different kind of animal. There is far more pressure and the Astros feature no shortage of postseason experience. Logan Gilbert has the talent to find success, however, overcoming the stress of the big moment will be no easy feat.</p><p>The key for Gilbert will be commanding the zone. If he limits walks and throws strikes on a consistent basis, he should end up turning in a solid outing for the Mariners. Seattle’s offense will be hard-pressed to score runs against Houston’s elite pitching staff, so Logan Gilbert’s performance may tell the the story of Game 1.</p><p>The Mariners will have confidence heading into the ALDS. They stunned the Blue Jays in Toronto during the AL Wild Card Series <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/we-dont-quit-scott-servais-stern-message-after-shocking-mariners-8-1-comeback-vs-blue-jays/" rel="noopener">after erasing a 7-run deficit</a> in Game 2.</p><p>The Astros-Mariners matchup projects to be an exciting battle between NL West rivals.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
