Re: Former Mariners tracker

] Julio is untouchable. Pointless to suggest otherwise. Which is why I led with “I’m spitballing” and then added 2 more caveats that it won’t happen. My post was more around speculating what the Mariners could get in return for him, and how much this would change the team and its current run for co...

Re: Former Mariners tracker

Selling low now and the fanbase would burn T Mobile now. Trade after he gets hot and hits 10 fingers in a month and fanbase would cut Stanton and Jerry's Ball off and burn them in Pioneer Square. Well, yes. But, this also happened: young, face of the franchise Juan Soto gets traded to the San Diego...

Re: Former Mariners tracker

When do we get to call Juilo a bust? Sadly, maybe joyfully cause fuck this ownership group, I'm looking forward to calling Julio a bust. So sick of all the failures of this org. I'm sure Julio is an outstanding young man, but yea, fuck this organization. If - and I am totally spitballing here - if ...

Re: Sometimes You Have To Lose To Win

Wow, damn Straight! Hitting .419!!!! 14-23 his last 5 games... https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/a/arraelu01.shtml It cost the Friars a reliever, and their #6,9 and 13 prospects. It's probably the equivalent of a Voth or a Saucedo, and then Farmelo, Arroyo and Aidan Smith. This would hardl...

Re: Sometimes You Have To Lose To Win

Can call it like it is... M's missed their chance when they didn't trade for Matt Olson or Juan Soto. Those young, elite bats aren't on the market right now. And when they passed on the chance to sign Corey Seager and Marcus Semien. The Rangers did in 3 years what the Mariners have failed to do (de...

Re: Sometimes You Have To Lose To Win

Problem is still money though right? They could take on one of these big bats via trade but will they shell out the $ to cover them for the rest of the year? Or make the trade so terrible for us that the other team has to cover their entire salary ? The money thing is funny. We’ve talked about this...

Re: GT 5/23 "Let's Beat these Bastards!" Yanks vs. M's

Bobble head and fireworks nights won’t solve the offensive problem. No, no, no. I think you're actually on to something here. Since these clowns don't want to get serious about playing baseball, we should turn it into a sideshow act. Much like the Savannah Bananas, we become the Mariner Disparagers...

Re: GT 5/23 "Let's Beat these Bastards!" Yanks vs. M's

I always find that silly as well...what they are saying isn't going to help the hitter any way. I mean what are they saying? I am going to throw a curve ball and then 2 fastballs and a slider??? Larry: “Excuse me, but what the hell's going on out here? Crash: “Well, Nuke's scared because his eyelid...

Re: GT 5/23 "Let's Beat these Bastards!" Yanks vs. M's

The Yanks were complaining the other day that the M's were reading their signs from 2B and relaying it to the batters. They weren't upset but it, per se. Just saying that it was part of baseball. I just watched the conference on the mounds and they were all holding their hands over their mouths like...
