Logan Gilbert (1-0 W-L, 2.33 ERA) vs. Dane Dunning (2-1 W-L, 3.91 ERA)
Logan Gilbert has been one of the Mariners’ bright spots this season, showing impressive control and efficiency on the mound with his 2.33 ERA and 0.78 WHIP over 27 innings pitched – holding opponents’ scoring chances to only 17 hits and 4 walks while striking out 29 batters despite giving up 4 homers. Gilbert will need his ability to keep opponents off-balance to succeed against an aggressive Rangers lineup this weekend.
Dane Dunning of the Rangers provides an interesting contrast with an 3.91 ERA and 1.22 WHIP across 23 innings pitched. Dunning has been effective, though his tendency to allow walks (13 thus far) might pose problems against an aggressive Mariners offense that might take advantage of any lack of control from Dunning. His 22 strikeouts demonstrate his capacity for getting batters out; however, their confidence at bat may prove formidable competition against Dunning.
