Re: Trade Dead line untouchable prospects
I guess I don't get this. Was it some kind of Herculean effort to build the Farm back up? Cal has been a Star, and Julio is serviceable....but what home grown position players do you guys watch play in a Mariner uniform and think "thank God we didn't trade that guy for a short term rental and a play...

Re: Another trade deadline plan.
And the 84 M's did NOT have a good offense. The game was different too. I get next to zero enjoyment out of watching baseball today. I realize that the pitching is pretty damn good, but the approach at the plate is God awful. The amount of times pitchers get away with pitches in the dirt, well off ...

Re: 7/1 GT Let's beat up the Royals until they're at their Witt's end
Let's face it, Hancock sucks. He's in his third season and he's just getting worse. Too bad hes killed his trade values, the best we can do is stick him in the bullpen and hope he shines there. This is where "protection in the lineup" is a myth. Julio has probably the third-best protection in baseb...

Re: 6/30 GT Shove these bums' heads in toilets and give 'em a Royal flush
Of course I was using Ozzie Smith as a ridiculous comparison, but the guy is not a middle of the order bat, and your excuse for why he hits second is his speed? Fuck that. He is a two hitter on this team because this offense sucks. What's ridiculous about Ozzie Smith, he was in fact a two hitter on...

Re: 6/30 GT Shove these bums' heads in toilets and give 'em a Royal flush
I'll leave this here again. He is paid like a top position player, that is why they bat him second. Oh, and because the rest of the team is pretty shitty as well. This here, again, is why WAR is fucking dumb. The guy is a CF, so his WAR is good, even though his offensive output makes him mediocre at...

Re: Another trade deadline plan.
Young sucked in April and then snapped out of it but WHY can't a single one of these guys rake like Alvin Davis did. Went back and looked at AD's rookie numbers check out this comparison. Its uncanny! Screenshot 2025-07-01 at 08-45-00 Julio Rodríguez (2022-2022) vs. Alvin Davis (1984-1984) Head-to-...

Re: 6/30 GT Shove these bums' heads in toilets and give 'em a Royal flush
Your supposed to, there's some analytical guys that adhere to that, it was someone to advance the runner, Lou tended to bat Macklemore second I believe, that's where Dan learned his baseball. Julio has speed, he gets on base, I am not really buying into his approach these days but he isn't just jer...

Re: 6/29 GT Let's see if we can not throw another game away to the Rump Rangers
I of course don't coach at that level, but who is hitting behind someone completely plays into my strategy when calling pitches, and it sure does when I am filling out a lineup card.

Re: 6/29 GT Let's see if we can not throw another game away to the Rump Rangers
Judge with HR's 29 and 30 today. And that is a guy that actually has hitters that pitchers are remotely afraid of also in the lineup. Why anyone pitches to Cal blows me away. I'd walk him every time he came to bat in pathetic lineup that Jerry has built. https://www.seattletimes.com/sports/mariners...
