Seattle Mariners proving rest is highly overrated in series against Blue Jays

Seattle Mariners Prove Rest is Overrated

The Seattle Mariners have shown more energy through two games of the ALCS, contrary to predictions of fatigue after a 15-inning Game 5 win in their ALDS decider.

The fatigue and spent arms that were predicted for the Seattle Mariners after a 15-inning Game 5 win in their ALDS decider last Friday somehow missed the charter from Seattle.

Mariners player Josh Naylor, a native of Mississauga, stated that the idea of fatigue never entered his mind, despite the 15-inning marathon and the number of pitchers forced to take on the Blue Jays on short rest.

The Mariners now lead the best-of-seven ALCS with the Blue Jays 2-0, after arriving in Toronto with a fresh and energized team.
