Fun game.

Welp, home cooking probably never smelled so sweet for the M's.

That was a brutal road trip.
But you want them to go on a 16-hour round trip 3,000 miles across country and play in Cleveland??

Every team in the playoffs is a winning team and we'll need to be healthy and playing our best to do anything.

That said, avoiding the Astros is a much more favorable road to the ALCS and WS.

So fuck, start playing better. Get healthy. Get the detritus off this roster -- Festa, Brash, Marco, Toro, Trammell, Murfee, Swanson -- and batten down the hatches!!

Fucking Matt Brash and god damn Scott Servais. Matt Boyd.. why do you wait until you've brought in 4 other bums, to go to a guy who's been lights out?
As usual no sense of urgency just try to sneak by with the bare minimum

Maybe easier to get the ALCS but obviously not the World Series we still have to play them in the ALCS most likely

To be clear, I am actively rooting for us to get the last wild card spot. I'd like to play Cleveland.

But not in the way we're doing it :lol:
Are you aware that Cleveland has won 10 out of 11 games and has a better record than any of the wild card teams?
Sure.

But I'm also aware that they absolutely floundered against our pitching and Tampa/Toronto likely have better offenses.

What the heck happened? Did Ayala become the bullpen coach?

We need Geno back.

If we go on the road I just don't want to play on that s*** hole fake ballpark in tampa. I guess Cleveland has the nicest ballpark of the three. But if we're the third Wild Card everybody will just say We snuck in due to a new playoff format that never existed before

Before my time of following the Mariners but this Google thing says the 116-win team blew a 12-0 lead in Cleveland to lose 14-15. Shit can happen. 10 home games now is just enough time to find health and form. Everyone is right to be worried but if we were offered this position in late May, we would definitely have taken it.

We’ll be alright,
