Early success has always been the Mariners heel. This might be the year they become legit contenders.

Hopefully the bats keep it going. It’s all happened while Rodriguez has struggled.

Unfortunately it's been hitters who have low BAs having the success so I'm thinking we will regress sharply.

Is it not true? Rowdy isn't hitting grand slams and 3 games in a row with a HR. He's hitting .140 lol. Cal is our 2nd best hitter at .233 lol. Dylan Moore has a good BA in limited plate appearances.

I'm simply going by what the averages are telling me. It's a fun ride winning series, but long term it's not sustainable so we will be back to winning and losing 3-2 games shortly.

Also we struck our 18 times yesterday.

It’s true but we try to stay positive at least until May.
 
Palanco reverting back to the hitter we had hoped he would be has been great. If Moore has the same season he had last year, that'd be awesome. He was fuego for a stretch. Cal is him. Julio will come around.

It does all come down to strikeouts though. If we strikeouts like we did last game it's gonna be a long season.

No question the Mariners lacked any kind of offensive depth last year.

Must be easy to sell the most tickets when teams play 6 games in one day and play on back to back to back to back days. But I guess you gotta get them in somehow when the season is 654 games long.

Not if you're the rays or the As.

Baseball is the ultimate "you have to be good to fill the stadium" sport.
 
Working down in LA right now and am proudly wearing my Dodgers hat FAMILIAS!
 
Looking forward to getting Brash and Kirby back. Not to mention Robles.

Brash eww. I know we need the bullpen help but for whatever reason he makes me really uncomfortable when he pitches.

Everybody in the bullpen makes me feel that way. Munoz gets a pass though
