Pharmbro, get a nice, long winning streak going, please.
Scrooge McDuck & the M's brass have a lot in common - They have the money but will not spend nor show it.

Nice, Scrooge McD.

Done! He's a lefty like JP and Wrong. Move JP to 2B and put Didi Gregorius at SS. And ditch the Wrong, impotent Wrong guy.

The Mariners have signed infielder Didi Gregorius to a minor league deal, per an announcement from Algodoneros de Unión Laguna, the Mexican League club he had been playing for.

Gregorius, 33, struggled badly in the past two major league seasons and was released by the Phillies in August of last year. He remained a free agent until May of this year, when he headed to the Mexican League. He has been on an absolute tear since signing, as he has hit .359/.431/.777 through 26 games this year.

He was once capable of 20 HR 120 OPS+ 6’3”. 205 but looks heavier. He has a 95 OPS+ career. I don’t know if he does any better than Ford did once he was called up. Plus Dilly came up and walked in his 2 ABS OBP = 1.000 after one game. Caballero
Cabby last week = 1.016 last 28 days .806 OPS.
So, the only move that would make sense is either Wong or Ford.

Ford has a .282 OPS but had a home run robbed from him. If that had gone out he is hitting .200 .282 .500 = .782 OPS
But he would probably be the guy.

Wong Jammed his wrist so couldn’t they put him on the DL and rest him for a few weeks and then rehab?

Why move JP, they just put didi at second, doubt they have plans for that, more organizational depth

I'll be at the game tonight. I wonder if Castillo will have to throw a shutout to win.

Looks like you’ve got to have Apple TV to catch the game tomorrow. Why do I even bother with MLB subscriptions?

Even worse to have it blacked out overseas. Let’s grow this game worldwide, MLB. Never mind - show us foreigners the Red Sox and Yankees (clearly the only two teams who exist) for 3,000,000th time. 🤬🤬🤬

I know alternate methods of viewing will exist but I need the option of catch up in case I sleep in until 3 or 3:30am. Think I will be swerving this one.
