Mariner Talk Chat Forum

I am warming to a player I never-ever thought I would. Who am I talking about? Whit-Motha-Fn-Merryfield! I have spent years hating this guy as he is always linked to us. I am like he sucks! Until I heard on a podcast that he responded this way to the question "What ballpark do you like to hit at th...

The M's have something like a $120M cash payroll for the 26 man. The Astros are at $230+ M and the Rangers are at $200+ M. Sign Snell, trade for a 2B or 3B. Offer Snell a $101M/4 yr. contract as follows: 2024: $25M with $5M deferred to 2028 @ 5% interest 2025: $25M can opt out after 2025 2026: $23M ...

I think we could be done. And we are something like 20 or 30 million dollar lower in payroll than last year. Lineup 1. JP* SS 131 OPS+ 2. Julio CF 136 OPS+ 3. Raley* OF 126 OPS+ 4. Garver DH 134 OPS+ 5. Cal** C 116 OPS+ 6. Ty 1B 115 OPS+ 7. Mitch H OF 121 OPS+ ( His Mariner years plus 2023) 8. Uria...

It seems that Raley will get some chances at 1B. Maybe a matchup, or PHing for France.

How we feeling?

They finally moved up the ETA for Cole Young to 2025 from 2026. Bliss seems to be a Sept. callup, sans an injury.

I'd like to see the M's trade for Joel Payamps. He tweaked his slider. “He’s the type of pitcher who saves his bullets for the game so he wasn’t able to accomplish (the feel of the pitch) from throwing bullpens or throwing programs,” Henderson said. “So we had to go to higher intense live batting pr...

I think they will have a pretty long leash. They got him because they want to develop him. He isn't there to carry the offense. They will be patient with their investment Blogger .In a nutshell, if Kelenic plays at the same rate as he did in 2023, a 2.0 fWAR per 162 games player is nothing to be ex...

Mitch seems like a down to earth guy. Too bad he had his injuries.

Mitch was a 5 tool player: Speed, batting average, power, arm, fielding.

Mitch ran at 28.8 ft/sec, before his injuries.

Farmer is just an older Moore. I don't get the point. Or a bullpen piece. Or a prospect. Point is, I don't see the point of DeScalfani. He's an expensive, one year, bottom feeding starter or long relief bullpen arm that we don't really need. We got rid of Marco who filled that role, and then took o...

Marco and Geno seemed to be down to earth, likeable guys.
