Re: GAME THREAD This dreadful season is only 40% done 6/4/19

Moore looking pretty sharp; moving the ball around, changing speeds. We might get six out of him tonight...

Re: GAME THREAD This dreadful season is only 40% done 6/4/19

Braden bishop in CF over Smith is the right call. I don't want to see either of the guys who deserve time out there benched (Haniger and Santana). Theyve got their own problems to figure out. Hoping to see a platoon for CF if they're both going to be on the roster. May the best man win. Bishop. I l...

Re: GAME THREAD This dreadful season is only 40% done 6/4/19

Uh, guys, I already started the game thread. I even preceded it with the date to make it super-duper easy. It had the best thread title of the season too (Moore Moore Moore How Do You Like It). I've since deleted it and just as well, all I do is make the team lose anyway. Wait a minute...am i dead?...

Re: GAME THREAD This dreadful season is only 40% done 6/4/19

Interpolating the 40% mark over the season would mean the Ms would end up with their third lowest attendance figure since Safeco opened, coming close to the 2012/2013 low tide marks:

2012: 1,721,920
2013: 1,761,546
2019: 1,802,827

This team deserves to be the best at SOMETHING. We have a chance.

Re: Servais Says Changes are Coming for Mariners

Well, the first change should be: "No comporting with the enemy". No chit chat with the other team. No smiles. No laughing. Treat the opposition, during the roughly 2 hours of game time as someone who would steal your 401K, bang your wife, cheat at golf with you. After the game, fine, connect, have...

Re: More banners the Mariners should raise

As an addition to this, much like the White Sox (and others) have their HoF legends on their outfield walls, the Ms could decorate theirs with failed first round draft choices. It would look spectacular under the banners.

Re: Potential landing spots for the sell-off.

With Jerry leaning on the ‘abandon ship’ button by the end of May, and the Royals ostensibly doing the same (probably to be followed by Baltimore and SF), it will be interesting to see whose intentional nosedive is more productive, not only from trade proceeds, but competitive positioning for the 20...

Passan has amended his earlier report to state that a deal between the two sides is “not imminent.”
Of course ! It’s probably because we asked for someone with a heartbeat.
