The statement of "JP being one of their better bats" is a damning statement of how bad our hitting is.

btw JP has the 6th highest OPS on the team so not one of the better bats in terms of "regulars"

JP can't even cut it as a shortstop. Why would we want him at 3B... JP is slow. Range at SS is a premium along with CF. Leo was OK at third base as a defender but shit The bed with the bat JP is a big upgrade over him and can hold it down until Donovan gets healthy. JP has a decent bat and has a bi...

Seven prime time games... After winning the Super Bowl last season, and returning 20 of 22 starters, half of which have been added by Schneider in the last two seasons alone (the years after Pete Carroll was removed from his duties with the team), Seattle is a glamor team heading into 2026. The Sea...

You know I am not a JP fan but he is the best option at 3B until Donovan comes but and creates a cluster fuck log jam. 3B is better for him as well.

Brash is being activated, Speier should be too. That's going to fill out their back end

And there are no position players (already will have too many when Donovan is back) that can or should be replaced and obviously have too many starters. This is the team that needs to get its shit together.

I think the Mariners go after back end of BP.

but who is going to give that up? Back-end arms are going to be needed for anyone in the race, so the cost will be EXPENSIVE!!

And currently there are only a handful of sellers in each league....

On the other hand, for as crappy as they are playing they are only a game and a half off the division lead

2 back and in 3rd place. A's pitching isn't great but they just lost a game their starter had a no hitter going in the 9th and would be three back if he had just held onto the lead.

Well still have the lead but Emerson is having the worst game of his career today. Error should be on Naylor. Poor kid.

They said they were going to change it but still showing on Emerson which is obviously wrong.
