I get we're playing an inferior team this evening, and it's cold, but it is impressive that Mariner batters have K'd only one time this game. That's the best sign yet that they're controlling the zone.

I wouldn't mind experimenting with Clase leading off, Rojas in the 2-hole and Julio hitting 3rd. Yes, JP to the 9-hole is not a bad idea.

Geez, as our first 2 batters K in the top of the 9th. Sorry I spoke up

Hell yea 2 games tomorrow yes. Great win. Castillo offense. 4 in a row 8 straight quality starts. Tied for first.

More walks then strikeouts hell yes. Staying off the iPads are really working. Still undefeated with Clase. Another great game from him.

His OBP is less then 0.300 still

Julio and Kelenic have turned into a couple of pussy singles hitters. Weak ass shit from both of them.

JP is .277 OBP. What's to lose?
Clase is a switch-hitter and he's growing into MLB quickly. He's already shed his rookie diapers and has moved on to pullups. Give it a shot; Jonatan could be that spark that ignites the M's to lofty heights. If he fails I don't think he's the type that would allow his confidence to shrivel. JP will still be here and assume the leadoff spot again if called upon.

Now that most starters are encroaching or have busted through the Mendoza line, what can the M's do here for more production?:

Can we get a bigger deeper ball cap for Castillo? Maybe that way he could concentrate more on pitching

Need to get him one of these made-

Mariners win! We're HEROES!!!

Probably should have beaten these bums at least 10-0 tonight, but 7-0 is a good butt-whooping. That is one BAD team thay the Cockies are trotting out there. Hard to believe that the White Sux are even worse.

EVs are great, other than that they aren't really environmentally friendly and every time one is sold it enriches China along with some executives and politicians here in the states.

I have "liberal" friends who won't buy a Tesla because ... they don't want Elon M<usk to get richer.
