The M's offense *was good. When they were averaging 7+ a game, walking a shit ton and stacking hits.

The M's are 2-11 their last 13 games. In those 11 losses they're averaging 2.37 runs per game.

That's why they're losing. We all knew the pitching wasn't going to be amazing... but when you're putting up barely over 2 runs a game on O it doesn't matter.
LOL, it also doesn't matter when you are giving up 8.2 runs a game. You aren't going to win many of those games. LMAO that you think offense is the reason they are losing when giving up over 8 runs a game.
Nobody is arguing that the pitching has been good over the run.

But the offense hasn't been good either, so why argue that it has? You can get away with mediocre pitching with great offense which is why we were 13-2 at one point. Everyone knew if the offense went in the tank this team was in trouble... it needed to be a strength that has turned into a major weakness of late.

I don't make too much of the offense scoring on games that the Mariners are losing by 10 runs. That happened 4 times over that stretch. They haven't been amazing, but they haven't been inept.

No hitting, no pitching, no defense, no baserunning.

D-Train...

You were clamoring for Markel. How'd he do?

It looked like the M's were struggling with the mound.

Good thing we held onto all these great relievers to lose Curletta to Boston.
