He\u2019s looking to bounce back after a shelling against the Padres last week. Kirby has been good overall this year with a 3.54 FIP, but he\u2019s done it in a weird way, with a career-low strikeout rate and a career-high groundball rate. The Padres were able to elevate against him last week, with a pair of homers.

Colt Emerson plays third and bats ninth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Jhonny Pereda will start behind the plate. The last time we saw him he hit his first big league homer in what was a great game for him all around. He has five caught stealings already this year on defense.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.lookoutlanding.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mariners will look to make it back-to-back series wins Saturday.
