In the west, the Mariners’ latest showdown with the A’s will feature rookie Logan Gilbert and stalwart Frankie Montas. It could also be the game where the Matt Brash emergency button is pressed. With a day off tomorrow, Servais will surely take an “everyone on deck” approach.

As for us, we do not go down without a fight.
