No reason we shouldn't be. Paxton, Gordon, Segura, Haniger, Gonzales, Gamel, Heredia and others are all 30 or younger. DiPoto will make the right moves to keep us competitive.

A Heredia, Trout, Haniger outfield would be insta-erection. Add that with the Healy, Gordon, Segura, and Seager infield. Move Cano to DH.

But then again... I would miss Nelly at DH.

Sweaters so overpaid.. I'd honestly try to attach prospects to Seager's contract and use the savings to upgrade 3rd Base or our rotation.

Hell, with that lineup, move Cano to Tacoma and we're still awesome...

Seager is an upper level AL 3rd basemen. He’s having a down year but he has definitely earned his spot, he for awhile was our only bright spot other than Felix and Cano.

Seager is upper level? According to what?

"He for awhile was..." exactly... He no longer is.

$19M for a guy who can't hit the ball the other way, and has hit over .270 only once. Less than .600 BA+OBP the past two years...

That's just not good, and he's way too streaky to be producing that poorly.

I like setting up Healy with someone who could get on base. Heredia could keep an inning going behind the sluggers, or start of the 2nd getting on base for a couple other power guys in Healy and Seager.

He’s a good defender though, and is clutch.

I’ve had more fun watching the Mariners and baseball in general this season more than the Blazers... wtf is going on lol

winning....it's always the game changer...with the Mariners it's how they're winning that impresses me....team ball all the way on both sides...surprising pitching stability

Makes me shudder thinking about the Jack Z days. Good god he was one of the worst. The cano signing at the end doesnt save him.

Yeah, that would be a pickle. Gotta have Cruz in there. I'd put Gordon back out in the outfield and have Cano back at 2nd. Heredia is a good 4th outfielder.

Then you got Gamel. lol. wtf. It's a good problem to have, though.

Same.

Gordon
Segura
Cano
Cruz
Haniger
Seager
Healy
Heredia
Zunino

Good god that 1-6 is sick by itself, Add trout? I'd probably have to say bye bye to Healy

Gordon
Segura
Cano
Trout
Haniger
Cruz
Seager
Heredia
Zunino

How the fuck do you get through that lineup save the last two?

I mean, we'd need to find a 1b I suppose. Can cano play that and Gordon go to 2nd, Trout in CF?

In 2020, though, we may need to worry about pitching. We'll have Paxson and... I love the way these guys are pitching NOW, but I'd love to see a full year of it before I say we have a rotation, too.

Absolutely horrible. I could've done a better job. Thank God for Jerry.

That's what I'd try to do.

Haniger is playing really well. I will not say he's better than Trout, but he is playing top flight for the moment.

Haniger is I believe one of if not the most clutch player in baseball....it's not his numbers as much as when he gets the RBI or throws out the tying run at the plate in extra innings...dude is for real

No doubt he is for real. And his throw from the right field corner to 2nd was much more impressive than the one in TB.. that was more a baserunning blunder in the bottom of the 9th than it was a great throw, IMO.

Totally agree. I’d be cool with this, cause I could make an extra 50K a summer, but how boring!!!!! It’s just an unwatchable activity. How people get pumped up for a baseball game the same you would for a basketball or football game is just behind me. But it is America’s past time right?

You’ve obviously never watched a SF Giants game at AT&T Stadium, playoffs or otherwise. Or attended a World Series victory parade. Shit gets real there. No freakin’ difference whatsoever compared to the other sports you mentioned. It’s all about what you’re into. But I get what you’re saying because that’s exactly how I feel about pro football. I’d rather watch paint dry......
