After this season I’m actually excited for a lockout.
After almost 30 years, I have felt the same way since 2019!

How great it would be to see the first 10,000 fans receive a giant foam middle finger. :D
For the final game of the season a giant middle finger to this organization and it's blatant incompetence.

I am totally convinced that the 54% and sustainability culture is what led to this. Just try to do just enough and this is the result.

No killer instinct. It more Loiterer instinct. It is NOT what sports is all about and here we are.
Agreed.

It's the type of approach that nets you Brendan Donovan and Rob Refsnyder as the replacements for Geno Suarez and Jorge Polanco.

"We only missed by a game, we don't have to go overboard in a weak division... the core's solid."

Oops.

Too bad he didn't pitch against the Mariners, he'd have done what Max Scherzer did.

I am not any good at recollection, the flow of the season. It just all seems crappy to me. But I was reading a retrospective article. It pointed out there was a high point, In July? They had a winning streak, they were three games over. 500. Their odds for winning the division were actually high. Then they went in the tank. For as crappy as the first have was the second half was even crappier. That just seems weird to me. It wasn't like they were crippled with injuries or whatever. How did they manage to follow that first half with an even worse second half?
The high point was May 25th - June 2. That was the season's Game Thread high, my 8-game winning streak.
I took 'em from 3 under .500 to 4 over for a winning percentage of .532. That's as close to 54% as they got the rest of this season.

I think the last time they were at .500 was July 21st. From there, the Good Ship Mariner kept taking on seawater and lost all buoyancy.

Hell, I think I should be honored at these last couple of game's ceremonies!!! 😎

the game thread competition is probably a pretty good way of keeping track of the ebb and flow of a season, hadn't considered that
