The M's Rotation is smoke and Mirrors
Re: The M's Rotation is smoke and Mirrors
Unless Castillo finishes the season strong he is untradeable unless we eat significant salary.

Jerry and Dan are "trauma bonded" to guys like Castillo and Garver.
Like a person in an abusive relationship who simply agrees with lies to keep peace.
They think they can "fix" them with enough time, love, and attention.

Thankfully we will be able to enjoy the Holidays this year knowing Garver will never wear an M's jersey ever again.

It takes a bit of time to fully come to terms with the fact that you blew your money on some horseshit. Castillo was pretty good at first.seattlefan-daBronx wrote: ↑Fri Aug 29, 2025 4:25 pmJerry and Dan are "trauma bonded" to guys like Castillo and Garver.

He's certainly capable and he was great in the postseason in 2022, but here we are now in a pennant race and he's had three bad starts in a row. This is not the guy you want to give the ball to in an important game at this point.DanielVogelbach wrote: ↑Fri Aug 29, 2025 6:29 pmIt takes a bit of time to fully come to terms with the fact that you blew your money on some horseshit.

I wouldn't be surprised if they trade Castillo and he immediately starts pitching better with his new team while the Mariners pay the bulk of his salary.DanielVogelbach wrote: ↑Fri Aug 29, 2025 6:29 pmIt takes a bit of time to fully come to terms with the fact that you blew your money on some horseshit.

Brash and Munoz get too much credit. Throw fucking strikes, stop falling behind in counts and maybe we won't blow two run leads. I don't give a shit how much your ball moves if the count is consistently against you because you can't keep it in the fucking zone. Never liked Brash. Big your ball breaks two feet you need to start it off the plate by two feet, you fucking mental midget.

Agreed Mike. His slider has to run back in the zone that'll keep the batters guessing. He's not bad it's just location for him. Munoz needs to keep his changeup & slider down below the knee. That slider needs to run away from lefties & in on righties. They are both talented just need to hit their location. I don't blame this on them. You can never score enough runs. But yes they can definitely do better that's for sure.Michael K. wrote: ↑Sat Aug 30, 2025 2:55 amBrash and Munoz get too much credit.
