This is my Brother's best friend in JR. High. I have known him for almost 45 years. 1000% credibility.

He went to Meadowdale right?
Yes! Do you know him?
No, but I think I remember him. He was a few years ahead of me. Football guy I think?

Re: Urias to AAA finally, Clase back

I think Urias was a good acquisition in terms of process, and it may still turn out well. Suarez was clearly in decline and they were able to offload his salary to the Diamondbacks. Urias is 27 and the gamble was that his sub-par performance in 2023 was injury related and that they were buying low ...

Re: 5/24 GT vs Nationals

My theory on Julio is that he made a swing change and it just isn't working for him. The problem now might be that pressing the reset button is just as hard as implementing the change in the first place.

Re: Saturday in DC Gamethread. 5-25

Apparently Mike Cameron paid a visit to the M's clubhouse today... according to Drayer, the clubhouse got "loud." Imagine how pathetic you have to feel that you're so bad that all the organization can do is throw the 2001 season in your faces over and over as a way to motivate you. Imagine that you...

Re: 2024 Prospects thread

I see Williamson was promoted and keeps on hitting everything but HRs. .862 OPS though... The Mariners and the player himself deserve some credit. I saw video last year of his ridiculous swing and decided he wouldn't make it out of A ball, but here he is an actual AA player and a guy that prospect ...

Re: Sometimes You Have To Lose To Win

Jerry it’s time. No more band aid trades trying to pull a rabbit out of a hat. Go get a real bat and recognize its going to cost prospects. If it’s Vlad and it costs Montez and change so be it. If it’s Robert or Jimenez and costs prospects so be it. I wouldn’t give our best prospects for a one year...

Re: Ms trade Hunt to Os for Bauman Reliever

There's some potential if you look at his pitch data. Like a lot of relievers he walks too many guys. He was mostly a starter in the minors and so he has a four pitch repertoire (4-seam FB, Slider, Knuckle Curve, and Change). By pitch data his breaking pitches and changeup are his most effective off...

Re: Ms trade Hunt to Os for Bauman Reliever

They must have been really down on Hunt for some reason that isn't apparent in his batting line at Tacoma. Maybe he's a butcher behind the plate?

Re: Former Mariners tracker

Went Oh for two last night with a flyout and a strikeout. They put in Adam Duvall as PH for him in the 7th, and Duvall drew a walk. JK's BA down to .255 Slow decay. So many M's fans thought he would be an AS with the Braves. lol Does anyone else find it interesting that both JK and Julio have had m...
