Robotic strike zones please.

This offense really needs to start picking it up. Anyone else think Kirby looks more refined than Gilbert? 2-0 count. Middle, middle fastball. Deposited. He had a 2.70 ERA in Sept with a .598 OPS against. I would give him more than an inning. He just seems like more of a thrower than a pitcher to m...

Settle down Gilbert gotta throw more then just your fastball. Get out of this inning His secondary offerings aren't working. He can't seem to locate. You can't be effective in the majors without some command of secondary pitches. He was poor there last year as well. I honestly think Kirby is a bett...

Nice to have an ace who can go 7, give up 1, and didn't even have his best stuff.

Lots of bad AB's w. runners on base. Ump wasn't helping, but the M's expanded the zone for Twins pitchers when they could have dealt some serious damage.

And yet, the Braves only won 88 games and won the World Series. What scares me most right now is the starting rotation. Flexen did not look sharp at all this Spring. I think our pitching could face some serious regression this year. Gilbert seemed to always have that one bad inning, just like last ...

It's a pretty simple formula to follow: Have a top 15 team both OPS and ERA wise and you're a virtual lock to make the playoffs. Finish in the bottom 10 in either category and you've all but kissed your chances goodbye. Of late, only Milwaukee has flirted with this and made the playoffs. The M's fin...

I'm going to say 81-83. I hate to be a downer, but I'm a little worried that the M's are going to get off to a slow start which could do a lot to hurt our chances. The Twins and White Sox in the first 7 in the cold is no bargain and our reward for the terrible weather is hosting Houston for the next...

Balmy 43* on Friday.

They should not be allowed to host a game until May.
