SOOTHSAYER! Say it ain't so (the run support)(& the blown saves).Big_Maple wrote: ↑Fri Aug 21, 2026 12:47 amMy prediction: he’ll end the season with a 1.95 ERA, but will only win 1 or 2 games because he’ll get zero run support, and the bullpen will blow whatever lead he leaves them with.
But yeah - he may give me a reason to resume watching mariners baseball again. At least every 5th game or so.
Behind the scenes, he's wanted to exceed expectations (and make the fans forget about this dismal season).Donn Beach wrote: ↑Fri Aug 21, 2026 2:00 amIts a different baseball than what they use in AA. Thats interesting, wonder why. Hes got adjustments to make. Might temper expectations
Yes, it's Dipoto trying to save his job. Do they really lose a year of control automatically or does he have to appear in x number of games?Donn Beach wrote: ↑Fri Aug 21, 2026 2:30 amYeah, lets save the season! Its really a pretty incremental improvement at best. Dipoto is burning a season of elgibility. Is it being desperate?
Agreed. Seems like Woo will probably go on the DL. They could have waited a few days to make/announce this move at least, but they needed to change the subject from Calkins article that they were probably tipped off about.Sibelius Hindemith wrote: ↑Fri Aug 21, 2026 3:10 amYes, it's Dipoto trying to save his job.
