In this story:

The Seattle Mariners defeated the San Diego Padres 5-2 on Wednesday night behind a phenomenal start from youngster Bryan Woo.

Woo went 6.2 innings, carrying a perfect game into the seventh inning. He ended his day by allowing just two hits and two earned runs while walking one and striking out five.

With the win, he's now 8-2 on the season. He owns a 2.38 ERA, which is among the best in team history.

Per @MarinersPR on social media:

Bryan Woo's 2.38 ERA in 19 starts this season is the 5th-best in @Mariners history (min. 100 IP), trailing only Félix Hernández (2.14 ERA in 2014; 2.27 ERA in 2010), Randy Johnson (2.28 ERA in 1997) & Cliff Lee (2.34 ERA in 2010).

Woo figures to have three more starts this season, so there's a chance that he could vault to the top spot by the end of the year with a good finish.

The 24-year-old stud was a sixth-round pick of the Mariners in the 2021 draft out of Cal Poly. He made his debut last season and is 12-7 lifetime with a 3.21 ERA.

Given his age and five full years of team control, Woo will be highly-coveted in the trade market this offseason. If the M's want to land a premium bat, they may need to move him, although performances like this make it harder and harder to entertain that idea.

The Mariners will be back in action on Thursday night against the Texas Rangers. First pitch from T-Mobile Park is set for 6:40 p.m. PT.
