Go inside the dugout with the Seattle Mariners and Tacoma Rainiers
Tuesday, August 22nd, 2006

Mariners pitcher Gil Meche, scheduled to pitch Tuesday night, was bumped back to Saturday because of soreness in his forearm, manager Mike Hargrove said.

Hargrove said the team wanted to be careful with Meche and give him some extra rest. Meche has not pitched more than 5 1/3 innings in his last five starts. During that time his ERA has gone from 3.83 to 4.66.

Taking Meche's Tuesday start is Cha Seung Baek, who was promoted from Triple-A Tacoma earlier in the day. Baek was 12-4 with a 3.00 ERA for the Rainiers, ranking second in the Pacific Coast League in wins and in the top five in ERA.
