Servais leaves him in after walking two and having 115 pitches with the bases loaded.
Pax gives up 2 in that situation, but can't blame him for leaving him in as bad as that pen as been.

oops
Just checking in and see the sacks were loaded with 2 outs and 2 runs score-Paxton pulled. Oh well

Oakland is serious about a WC. Too bad SFB Dipoto isn't serious. We'll just watch the A's continue their run.

In fairness, Pax got fucked over on a K that would have ended the inning.

No doubt he heard all the criticism about pulling a guy on a 2 hitter and nearly losing the game from it. Pax is your bell cow so you kind of have to ride them.

Agreed. Sad he should have been out of the inning long ago before loading up the bases

I get that as well... It makes it even funnier though when he pulled Leblanc when he did...

The bullpen scares the hell out of me... As i'm typing, Vincent is getting shelled...

And it's back to 8-5 now. :L

I just have no faith they can hold any kind of game anymore. At all. To anyone. Ever.

Remind me again why we traded for Zach Duke?

I don't really have a problem with the way Servais is utilizing his pen tonight... Just sucks that they suck... Seriously speaking - our bullpen was better w/out the 3 guys we traded for...

All in all, great win against one of the best pitchers in the AL... Chalked this one up for a loss so this was a pleasant surprise...

M's 4-0 against Houston when Pax starts. 0-6 with anyone else.

I think the Mariners have people looking over message boards. Everyone on Twitter has been calling Servais out for not having balls to upset the apple cart. Changing the lineup is a good sign he could actually be a major league manager.

Now if he could just allow Mel to make all the pitching decisions the Mariners could possibly make a decent run. Why Duke is the golden boy over Pazos I will never understand though.
