Ms vs Twinkies GT

[Seattle or Bust]

They're 26th in baseball in runs scored.

They lead the league in strikeouts.

On what planet do you think this offense doesn't suck?

Keep cherry picking the stats that show the narrative you want to show.

Who cares about strikeouts? It's been 33 games. Not even 1/5 way thru. Guys are coming on. If you look around the league, hitting is down everywhere.

Hitting is so down everywhere that your favorite team is in the BOTTOM 5 of every meaningful category.

Hitting is down around the league and the M's are somehow worse.

Vogel, I swear. Sometime I think you live on another planet.

Their pitching staff did something not seen since 1919 and the best this shitty offense could do to support them led to a 13-7 record. 13-7 with starters pitching to a sub 1.50 ERA... sit on that and ponder for just a minute.

Exactly this offense sucks and that we aren't doing anything but to continue to let it happen is embarrassing. No wonder some players have said shit bout this franchise. Jk was right. With all his comments. This team other then pitching does not know how to build a strong coaching system that sees a problem and finds a way to fix it. This batters just continue and they can't do it on thier own they need help and they aren't getting it from thier manager or coaching. If our offense was doing better we win this game. We are on a long winning streak of this offense was capable to do anything. Just be avg. Don't have to be the best just avg. Avg is good enough. This offense is just straight bad and it comes from bad coaching.

Yeah, runs scored is really "cherry picking" stats to support some radical narrative.

It's the most important thing.

Just because the Mariners pitching can win games in spite of shitty offense doesn't mean the offense isn't horrible. Do you watch games? They're fucking terrible.

[seth8734]

Kind of need Texas to win tonight, so this "first place Mariners" charade can end, when anyone with eyeballs can see this isn't a first-place quality team.

huh? have you been watching them play? They smoked Texas, took 2 of 3 from Atlanta (t3 team in NL), dominated Hou

They pitch and play great D (aside from Ty France)

You've got an offense that is largely doing just enough, piecing it together, with your supposed best hitter doing next to nothing. Julio has an 84 ops +
And still the team is in 1st, winners of 6 consecutive series

This offense has its OK moments but way way too many bad moments. Our record with an ok offense is one of the best in the game. If we had an actual offense drive in runs given a chance guaranteed we are close to 30 wins. We are 3 over when we should be 10 over

Exactly. You don't have to be the best but if u actually have an ok offense that record turns into like 20-3 a whole lot better record. I guarantee u Texas Yankees Orioles other teams that can hit with pitching like this they would only have like 5 loses this far.

[bpj]

Impotent offense.

3.57 runs per game.

Only the Rockies, Cardinals and White Sox have scored fewer runs than the Mariners.

Same old problem, year after year.

What the actual fuck are you smoking? This offense is hot garbage.

Jerry DiPoto, is that you? But seriously, "hitting is down everywhere"? You know it's all relative, right? We're 26th in runs scored, and when hitting picks up presumably for everyone, we'll still be 26th or near that in runs scored.

[Donn Beach]

Non Rojas ABs make my eyes bleed.

Polanco has never K'd more than 118 times in a season.

He's on pace for over 200.

Wtf about putting an M's uniform on breaks you? Jesus.

It's the hitting coaching. Thier approach is not working for this offense and nobody cares to change it up. This offense will be the worst until they change it. This approach sucks. 6 outs 5 strikeouts. Kid is gonna have 15+ way this is going. Horrible hacks.

This is what polancos 11th season in the majors,? He's not coming to the mariners and letting some hitting coach induce him to strikeout twice as much

[Donn Beach]

Seriously, did any of these hitters actually play baseball before now?

How can you strikeout so effing often?? Its not like this pitcher is anything special.

This is why every year for like... Many years in a row now... I wonder if everyone on the team shouldn't be hitting a hundred balls a day off a tee for practice.

Hand-eye-bat coordination seems off.

They are probably really good at hitting balls off a tee
