Post by desbcoach » Sat Apr 25, 2026 10:55 pm

a lot of hits and runs but can we continue is the question!
Hancock vs Mcgreasy, hopefully he serves up a few happy meals

The pitching on this team needs to be elite if they're going to get to the WS, and it ain't lookin good.

Id say the goal is to win the division, make the playoffs. Elite, I don't know if there's a team with a deeper rotation. It's not so much their one and two as who they can roll out there 4,5,6. It's a long season, that's really where they could have an edge in pitching.

11:15 AM start—fair play to you all, that’s some properly horrible unsociable timing to have to suffer through this baseball malarkey.

That might be your goal (and Jerry's) but if they hope to win playoff series against teams like NYY, DET, and TEX and get to a WS the Mariners will need at least one SP to step up and pitch like a legit ace. Otherwise they will get brushed aside by those teams which all have better front ends to their rotations as of now.

NY: Fried, Schlittler
Det: Skubal, Valdez
Tex: deGrom, Eovaldi

Also, CLE with Messick, Williams and Cantillo or Bibee as a #3 would match up favorably with us.

Gilbert and Castillo have been sucking and Hancock turned into a bit of a pumpkin his last start. I still can't believe what happened to Woo yesterday. Right now we have Kirby and Miller who is on the IL throwing well.
