The M's are off to a good start, as is prized free agent second baseman Robinson Cano, who will make his Safeco Field debut tonight. "Not just the game in Seattle, but it's emotional for me," Cano said. "I'm very emotional and happy, because I'm starting with a new team for a long time and a new time in my career."
Manager Lloyd McClendon said he expects the house to be rocking after the fast start by his club, which has several exciting pieces in place. "I hope the players have created some excitement and I know they're hoping that the fans are excited," McClendon said.
"These guys play hard and they try hard. Listen, I don't know how many wins we're going to have but I know we're going to have a pretty good team. I've got butterflies every day. I'm happy for my players."
McClendon has been warmly welcomed by the Mariners according to ace Felix Hernandez. "It's a lot different. We've got a lot different attitude," Hernandez said. "We've got a new manager and he's a great guy. He's always keeping us loose."
This series is chock full of star power, with Cano making his Seattle debut against arguably the best player in baseball, Mike Trout. Cano enters play hitting .391 with two doubles, while Trout is hitting .296 with a home run, a triple, a double and 5 RBIs.
Fellow Angels outfielder Josh Hamilton is red-hot as well, hitting .500 with two homers and seven runs scored in seven games.
