Kyle Lewis in LF, Kelenic in CF, Julio in RF, Fraley as 4th OF. If Fraley is too good to be an every day OF, then trade him or Kyle Lewis for a starting pitching. Could be mid 2021 as well as Julio has been playing. We've seen other 20 year olds take the league by storm. Why not Julio?!
The poster formerly known as Kingfelixk. With a new forum comes a new boardname. Julio is my guy, plus we share a birthday, so that's Culiooooo

Re: Its happening folks - JRod is what we have been waiting for
Darren, my friend, you are suffering from PRS....premature rosteralization syndrome. PRS is a dibilitating disease brought on by lack of interesting MLB baseball. Symptoms are quickly promoting anyone with a hint of talent, being an admin of a Mariner forum, or making bad $100 bets with people over 5' 22"
Unfortunately, there is no cure for Mariner fans.
However, there is hope on the horizon. For just a monthly donation of $19.99, you help find the cure to PRS. Your monthly donation will help us look for big league talent in odd places like Indy-ball, South Korea and South Africa.
Please help all you can

Re: Its happening folks - JRod is what we have been waiting for
just think, if he had gone 2-17 he be a bust already...lol
Re: Its happening folks - JRod is what we have been waiting for
You must have missed the part that he's four and a half years younger than the average player so actually 2 for 17 is what I expected.

Re: Its happening folks - JRod is what we have been waiting for
yup, he is very impressive, a was looking at Arod there a few days ago, at this point in his career they had already promoted him to Seattle. If you could imagine them doing that with Jrod, mind boggling
Re: Its happening folks - JRod is what we have been waiting for
Yeah I was looking at Griffey stats and he was in double-a at age 18 in the big leagues at age 19

Who knows maybe if they hadn't stupidly promoted him in 95 we would have a few World Series titles and he would have retired a mariner
