I saw J. Wanker had a game winning rbi for I believe Brewers this weekend ( if not GW was a huge go ahead rbi )

Both guys Wong and Henandez have great career numbers for batting avg ... then again this is the black hole of trades so ya never know.

 

[cezero]

a win would be nice today. need to keep up the positive vibes for the vegas trip starting tomorrow.

 

[AceKeptic]

Aw crap...

Marco Gonzales starting for us today...

You can call this series "one and done," because that season opener is the only "highlight" we'll have.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

My guess is the FO will deplete the farm at the deadline to bolster the hitting when all they had to do was go out and spend on a bat or 2 plus a starter in the rotation.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

Oh here we go.

I'm starting to hate this guy. Like Eric Bedard.

 

[AceKeptic]

Okay, well, JRod's leadoff in the first helps...

But now time for Seattle's favorite guessing game:

HOW LONG CAN WE HOLD THE EARLY LEAD?

 

[AceKeptic]

And the answer? WE CAN'T.

GAME OVER

 

[Msfann]

The ump blew calls on 2 pitches in a row to Kelenic but in his favor.

 

[Anointed One]

Great third inning for the Ms offense. Let’s just pray Gonzalez doesn’t screw it up.

 

[AceKeptic]

Third time today we've coughed up a one-run lead.

Our bats are willing, but the pitching just...well, isn't.

 

[NWinAZ]

Third time today we've coughed up a one-run lead.

Our bats are willing, but the pitching just...well, isn't.

I would say our defense is the reason. Very shitty defense this series.

Views on Kelenic via twitter:

Loyalist: He is laying off the off speed pitches that he chased last year.
Others: He still can't hit a fastball and is 0-10 since his double.
Me: Why isn't Nimmo playing the outfield for us?

 

[NWinAZ]

I still say they should just play rock-paper-scissors to decide a winner in extra innings...

 

[NWinAZ]

I would say our defense is the reason. Very shitty defense this series.

This holds true extras.

 

[WizardHawk]

Not the series you wanted to open the year with. It's not even just going 1-3 on it, but really crappy defense, lack of getting guys in from 3rd, lot of shaky strikeouts, and already have a pitcher on the DL.
