6-4-21 Ms. vs Angels: Dugger-Up. Time to filet some Ohtani.

[AT Funchal-Madeira]

M's buy Durham Bulls closer. He has actually been lights out for them this season. 13.2 innings 1 run 8 hits 2 BBs and 17 Ks.

Awesome Dipoto pickup! In four years he has 69 innings in the majors.... So if he can maintain his current longevity, he has about 4 innings of work left this year... I take it he wasn't THE Durham Bulls closer, but rather A Durham Bulls closer?

[D-train]

SS and JD are burning up the BP every sixth game and we are already scraping the bottom of the dumpster for arms. The team can't continue this .500 pace with one BP game out of every six plus a tired BP the game after these BP games.

Dugger vs Ohtani?? I feel sorry for the guy from the Bronx.... if he wins today, it's because Ohtani was gang raped in an LA homeless shelter. Oh well, it's all for protection and the longevity of our fragile crop of starters......so edgy...
Rooting for ya, Bronx..... Let's see if Dugger can bugger himself some roboto-yaki tonight! Grip it and rip it, baby!

You have the same random access brain that I do. lol

Yeah he finished 7 games so I went with closer.

btw I just reached out to Elias and they have confirmed that he is the first ever mariner named Yacksel. lol

D-backs 2017 1st round pick Pavin Smith has 59 hits on the season.

2016, 2017 and 2018 1st round picks Lewis, White and JK have combined for 54.

Why do you throw out garbage comparisons? To make yourself feel good? How about a little context? I mean it helps that he's played in 55 games this year and has 220 PAs

White has 30 games and 104 PAs not to mention a gold glove sitting on his mantle. Meanwhile JK has been up for all of 3 weeks.

To point out how cursed we are. Pavin is a normal first round pick like every other team somehow comes up with and our three either are injury prone, suck or both.

Injury prone or suck?

Lewis won the ROY last year. You remember that, right? Oh, but I guess he sucks.

White won the gold glove in his first season. But I guess because he can't hit .200, he has no value on a baseball team. Honestly, given how good he is on defense, if he continues his rate of improvement at the plate and settles in around .750 ops, stick him in the 9 hole for the next decade. I'm good with that.

And Kelenic? Come on. He's going to be fantastic. Just drop the hype on him and let this kid play some baseball. He had a full year and a half away essentially.

It just blows my mind how defeatist some, okay most, Mariners fans are!

STOP IT, GUYS!! The Mariners have talent. Sure the GM isn't perfect, but which is? Even the Rays Neander, LAs Zaidi and Boston's Bloom have made their share of poor moves. Dipoto is starting to get the better end of the stick on the vast majority of his moves. I mean shit, even Jake Fraley is starting to contribute now. Forget five OFs deep (once Julio arrives), could we be 6 deep?!

Yeah, we're 5 deep on (guys who hit like) center fielders and 1 deep on corner outfielders (Julio).

Dipotos top offensive talent seems to be the defense and speed variety.

Great way to keep losing 4-3.
