| | | SEATTLE: SEATTLE (AP) - Robinson Cano was just the start. The Seattle Mariners didn't stop with one major splash in trying to catch up with the best in the AL West.
Even so, there remain many questions about whether Seattle's additions as a whole can improve a team coming off a 71-win season.
The moves made by Seattle general manager Jack Zduriencik were in hopes of improving the Mariners and solidifying his own future after a shaky offseason that started with Eric Wedge's decision not to return as manager.
Lloyd McClendon is getting his second shot as a major league manager nine years after he was last leading a club in Pittsburgh. Along with Cano, Seattle signed outfielder Corey Hart, closer Fernando Rodney and traded for designated hitter Logan Morrison.
Despite those moves, there remain concerns about the depth of Seattle's rotation beyond ace Felix Hernandez and whether players the Mariners have been waiting for to finally pop can establish themselves as reliable, everyday starters.
Yet the Mariners believe they will be competitive in one of baseball's toughest divisions.
''We're ready to win. That's what it's all about,'' Hernandez said. ''We're ready to win ballgames in Seattle. We're ready to be in the playoffs, we're ready to do that.''
| | LA ANGELS: ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) - Albert Pujols and Josh Hamilton didn't exactly fit in right away with the Los Angeles Angels after they accepted owner Arte Moreno's lavish free-agent contracts.
Now that both sluggers feel much more comfortable and confident in Orange County, they know it's time the Angels started getting more wins for their money.
The Angels' four-year absence from the playoffs is embarrassing for an organization with a sky-high payroll and equally lofty expectations, but they seem capable of ending the drought if the club's various pieces finally add up properly.
Pujols and Hamilton are full of spring optimism after those disappointing 2013 efforts, while superstar Mike Trout is back for the third full major league campaign in his already remarkable career.

*Mariners-Angels Preview* =========================
Seattle (80-67) at Los Angeles (93-55), 10:05 p.m. EDT
Don't tell Los Angeles Angels manager Mike Scioscia that his team has the luxury of a 10-game division lead.
For the Seattle Mariners, luxury is a word that is certainly not in their vocabulary.
The Angels will become the first team in baseball to clinch a playoff spot if they win Monday night in the opener of a four-game home set.
Los Angeles (93-56) failed to record its first 11-game win streak in 50 years with Sunday's 6-1 home defeat to Houston. The Angels' AL West advantage over Oakland was cut to 10 games with their magic number to win the division remaining at four, but Scioscia took no solace in that.
"No one's using the word 'luxury' around here," said the manager, whose team last reached the playoffs in 2009. "We were out there trying to win every game."
Seattle (80-68) is 12 1/2 games behind Los Angeles in third place and will be eliminated from division title contention with a loss Monday. The Mariners are more worried about the wild-card standings, sitting 2 1/2 games behind the Athletics and one behind Kansas City.
Manager Lloyd McClendon's club capped a 2-4 homestand with Sunday's 4-0 loss to Oakland, dropping two of three to one of the teams it is chasing. The Mariners have won eight of their last 10 on the road ahead of this 11-game trip.
"We haven't been good. The good part is we are going on the road where we have been real good," McClendon said. "You want to talk about improbable, that's about as improbable as you get."
Something may have to give Monday in an enticing matchup of terrific right-handers.
The Angels have won seven straight starts by Matt Shoemaker (15-4, 3.16 ERA) while the Mariners' Hisashi Iwakuma (14-7, 3.11) is 5-0 with a 1.75 ERA in seven career starts against Los Angeles.
Shoemaker set a franchise record for wins by a rookie Wednesday by allowing one run in 6 2-3 innings of an 8-1 rout at Texas, improving to 6-0 with a 1.32 ERA in his sizzling seven-start stretch.
"I think Shoe is one of the big reasons why we're even contending," Scioscia said. "When he got his chance to get in the rotation, to do what he did is spectacular for us."
Shoemaker captured his lone start against the Mariners, giving up three runs over 5 1-3 innings in a 7-5 win May 29.
Pitchers may want to talk to Iwakuma about his astounding success against Mike Trout, who is 4 for 22 off him for his worst average (.182) versus anyone he has at least 15 at-bats against.
Albert Pujols is 3 for 22 off Iwakuma and has one hit in his last 14 at-bats.
Iwakuma went 5-0 with a 3.06 ERA in six outings before surrendering four runs in 4 1-3 innings in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to Houston.
Howie Kendrick is 7 for 19 off Iwakuma and is wielding a hot bat. The second baseman went 22 for 44 with seven extra-base hits - two homers - and 14 RBIs during a 10-game hitting streak that was snapped Sunday when he went 0 for 2.
Seattle's Dustin Ackley is expected to return to the lineup after missing two games with a sore left foot.
