OT How bout them Mariners

[Strenuus]

that's all she wrote i am afraid. bullpen, smh. everyone of em should be gone next season

Fuck it, bring back the 1920s baseball and say fuck it to bullpens.

 

[Strenuus]

It's just pain. That's all it is.

Must win game for the playoffs. Unreal man.

 

[Whyachi]

Julio's tater was awesome, golfed that sucker.

 

[kjironman1]

I did not watch...

 

[Whyachi]

I did not watch...

I caught bits & pieces. Logan on the mound for Seattle. Some rando 3-10 Herzcough Mangofred was pitching for the Angels.

Mariners catcher parked a fluff ball in the stands, 3-0 Seattle! Then I turned around and it was 3-2, then 3-3. I'm like... wtf?

Forgot the game was even on.

Flipped the tv on like 2 hours later...

Mariners down 5-3 in the 10th inning... uh oh. Hey, Julio's at bat, I better watch this. BOOOOOOOM goes the dynamite. Line drive shot over center field wall.
Tie game, everyone is happy!

Then some nerdy guy with glasses started pitching for the Mariners. The crummy Angels began spraying balls all over the place, Blowers called them lucky hits, and the Angels won the game.

I promised everyone here I would quit watching so they would start winning again.

 

[Whyachi]

8 runs on 12 hits tonight for Seattle. The M's pitchers tossed a 4 hit donut. TAKE THAT ANGELS!

 

[Cugel]

Good game and effort from Woo. What a schedule coming up though. LAD x3, HOU x3 and TEX x7. Fuck me. If they finish the season strong they will be more than ready for any wildcard matchup. Can they go ~500 in those 13 games? That would be ok.

 

[Whyachi]

Ohtani should put in a trade request, "Seattle only"

 

[PDXFonz]

Ohtani should put in a trade request, "Seattle only"

And then maybe the Blazers can trade Ant and Nurk for Giannis

 

[Whyachi]

And then maybe the Blazers can trade Ant and Nurk for Giannis

that was discussed on the JR Podcast following the 2nd trade deadline dismemberment. How to make Cronin look cool? Selling the idea of MVP players that Portland has no chance to get, takes extremely high quality basketball intelligence.

6 straight division titles for my Atlanta Braves!

 

[Strenuus]

6 straight division titles for my Atlanta Braves!

I don't know how any team beats them in a 7 game series. The run differential is unreal. They have an outside shot at 1,000 runs scored in a season. That's unreal.

I feel like with no moves made, Alex Anthopoulos should win executive of the year until they suck again for building the roster he did, and locking in that core long term.

 

[Shaboid]

Need a win tonight! Huge game and I'm lucky to be in attendance!

 

[Strenuus]

Houston and Texas lose again and we crap the bed.

Now we're out of the playoffs. Fuck this.

 

[Cugel]

Not going to be easy to make the last WC spot with this schedule. Just not coming up with the big hits. Two on and no outs and 1-3 can’t deliver anything? Not acceptable.

 

[Shaboid]

Brutal

 

[kjironman1]

Maybe I should start watching again?

 

[Strenuus]

We are marinering the fuck out of this September ain't we?

Damn you, run DMC! (Green font)

 

[Cugel]

Well it’s clear the roster needs work, another super star level player wouldn’t hurt, and clutch hitting needs work, but I don’t know what you do about that. Work on contact hitting?

if only the Mariners could bunt. Manufacturing runs could be helpful in Seattle. Especially with their amazing starting pitchers.

 

[Whyachi]

Rangers lost, M's only 1 game back from wildcard

 

[Whyachi]

super Braves got spanked by mediocre Marlins 16-2

A week ago we were 2 games up on the last wildcard spot. I hate it.

 

[Strenuus]

Braves have nothing to play for lol.

 

[kjironman1]

Boy they sure shit the bed against the Dodgers. You'd think they could have pulled off one game at least? I'm thinking I better start watching again?

I was saying the same thing in the 8th inning. Haggerty ended up on base, but he should have bunted the man to third with JP and Julio coming to the plate. I'm still pissed.

Yeah it was prime set up for the "get em over get em in".

This team pisses me off.

My FIL who is a Mariners fan pointed out the difference in this series was the Dodgers had guys going for base hits and the Mariners were all trying to hit home runs.
