Starting to get the sinking feeling that Haniger's hot start was a mirage. He's been declining for the past two seasons and I didn't like the idea of re-acquiring him. He's gotten meatballs in each of his first two ABs today and completely missed them.
He is cooked and has been for two years
Yea he can't hit or field now. Bad trade. Really good guy but not stepping up as a leader to help this offense no meetings nothing. Just there to strikeout and play bad defense. Winning formula

So Rojas is sitting because of platoon BS.
I went to check his career splits and he's only very slightly worse against Left-handers. Like 257 average vs righties and 254 average vs lefties. All the other numbers are similarly close.
Why can I, a common schmoe with a smartphone, look this stuff up but nobody on the Mariners staff can?
Same with Ford last season 900+ OPS vs. lefties and they sat him every time until it through his timing off. Its like they don't have internet access.

How is it that the M's have 9 hits and the Braves only have 6? And they lead by 3...?

Damn if not for Haniger and bases loaded walk we would be shutting them down. DAMN IT DEFENSE MY ASS. Haniger needs to stop playing first. Sucks he can't. Would miss his striking out!

Well, that was refreshing.
Usually they like to load them up to really give us a glimmer of hope before striking out to retire the side.

Maybe the new Microsoft executive will bring a modem and internet access. Not likely as Jerry and John have brick phones from Stanton’s first invention
