Damn, I thought Lewis had his second hit..... Who is gonna be the first Mariner with a multi-hit game this year? I say Marmolejos...
Re: M's vs Astros Gamethread #1
Nice to see Seager and Lewis dropping bombs already!

Re: M's vs Astros Gamethread #1
Well, that's it.... we lose a close one... but there's no way Houston beats us as many times as last year...Guess I pass on Angie Mentink, Brad Adams, and Ryan Rowland-Smith's analysis of the game.... I am hoping to see a nasty fucking TiJuan Walker take the mound tomorrow and assume leadership of this pitching staff (along with Graveman)

Yes, I noticed that toDavidGee24 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 25, 2020 2:09 amVogie being aggressive jumping on the first pitch twice...and two weak ground balls. I have a bad feeling.
After Scott told to be more aggressive, he goes too far in the 9th that was ball 4 and a slider up in the zone? He does need to be more aggresive but by punishing pitches in the zone and not trying to walk but trying to punish the ball and accepting the walk if given,
He seems to be wanting the walk over everything too often
Re: M's vs Astros Gamethread #1
That shit again!
Does anybody else remember the term "fireman"?
No, not the example of sexist "Gendering" of a profession but the term used to describe one who was your best or nearly your best reliever to come in with runners on and strand them and save your starter's ERA and keep the team close!
Sorry, if anyone considers that political
Re: M's vs Astros Gamethread #1
I never did understand why so many try this BS
Seags was a 4 to 5 WAR player/ 160 last year he has 18&1/2 next year and a 15M that kicks in if traded!
If folks are right about Marte eventually moving to 3rd or 2nd he will not be ready for at least 2 to 3 years!
There is no one burning down the house to take over
With Seager performing to career averages in 2021 when we get Kelenic and probably Gilbert up we should have productive position players if things go according to plan
Seager should be just fine in his last year or even the option year in 2022
I think most contenders have good 3rd baseman but expanding out to 16 means that probably 75% of the teams should be close enough to consider a push
Perhaps there is an opportunity to trade someone, but I only want trades that have at least a reasonable chance of improving the team in a meaningful way
A top 100 type or in that range
Think Kyle Lewis, Marco G, Sam Carlson, Fraley,etc
Kyle Seager has been a 4.2/162 player for his career including the 2018 disaster with the 86 OPS+!
I am in no hurry to trade him when there is no Kelenic level guy near ready
Austin SHenton is my best bet for 3rd Base outside of or maybe even adjacent to Marte but they both are facing a bit of a lost year
Again, neither one I would expect to be ready for MLB before Seager's option is complete
