I agree.wih that...
But if they make..a trade..like Wong..again..
That just does not work....really..
For know or the future..

Then they are just spinning the wheels

I think we can all agree that any move that aligns anywhere close to the Wong acquisition would be an utter failure. JeDi failed the team in the offseason, he has to change course at the deadline.

Though guys who are not quit ready..
Like Vargas..are who thay should be after

And dodgers would seem. To need a guy.
For playoffs..
That is not Vargas..
Donavan would seem..like the dodgers..guy
Who could help...
With that..then Vargas .would seem available..

But there..3b is not the best either..
(dodgers).

donavan plays all..that..is what they need..

But.that..or..gorman for cardinals seems to be a 2b as well..
So..I could move on till finding.a 3b..

Whitch...I'm not so sure..it won't come .
Out of the mariners system..

However..3b..could take some.time..
So looking for a platoon with Suarez.
To cut down on strike outs..

All..mariners rotation..except..Gonzales.
Should be off limits...for now..

 

[ulmax]

Well.that would be my..statagie..at any.
Rate..
An outfield .Marlowe..would..be good like.
A PR..and 4th..guy..and typicly..Marlowe comes on..in the 2 half..so I like Marlowe.

I.like.deloach.as.well..but I feel.they could trade him for..Ian hap..and both teams would be better off...
Deloach..is not Ian hap...
Deloach..is much like...kelenic..

So I still feel it would be a good trade..

Better hap..than..pollock

 

[ulmax]

Lolol..yeah well..dream ..never know.
It may come true .lolol.

1crawford..ss.L/L

2vargas..2b.slightly expensive..maybe brash and Hernandez..and moore.but well woth it .
Or whatever .


3france..1b
4.ford..L/L.1b DH
5 julio....CF
6kelenic..RF.aL/L
7raliegh..catch
8rojas..L/L3b...Suarez.

9ian hap..LF..bases 9n balls ok then


Bench..
Murphy..
Cabellero..
Rojas..3bLFL/L


It a judgement.call..here..on ..outfield
Who would fit the team above..
Could..be Trammell..
If he starts hitting.

 

[ulmax]

With vargas.marinars .would start.looking more like an mlb lineup..
Ian hap.as.well..
Morlowe or Trammell.
Or.spence packard .or clase are on there way..


Heck mariners..need a break..why not..

 

[ulmax]

Julio was a hit for ave guy while coming.up.
Through the minors..
Not this year..I know..
But he will again..I know it...

Yeah I forgot...
He prob is.the missing haniger ..
What was I thinking..

 

[ulmax]

This only kiks..the can..on 4th outfield..and.
Keeps the rotation together..
All good things..going forward.

 

[ulmax]

Ford... Locklear same same...
Building for future..

1 Crawford .young..
2.vargas...tie peete.??.
3 france.....??.
4ford..Locklear..1b/Dh.
5 Julio ..cf..bill knight ??.
6kelinic..Farmelo..
7.raligh..ford..
8 Suarez...Williamson.
9..Ian hap .????.clase

Bench .
Murphy .?? Batista .
Cabellero..
Pagliarini..3b
Clase...

Or some such...the mariners have.m8nors guys..we all know it..

 

[ulmax]

Well, 2 games over .500 … we’ll take it… Some sloppy play but clutch comeback … And man, we better keep J.P long term that dude has some clutch in him …

I'll say the Mariners have been playing with some life in them this series.

I typed this up then Julio misses a fly ball to center for a ground rule double, and then Suarez hesitates on the throw to first which was ruled safe.

Regarding J.P., I know it's an imperfect metric but he's currently 5th in MLB in WAR amongst shortstops.

God this 9th inning has been an error fest

 

[Mariners_44]

Welp…..the 2023 Mariners have returned

 

[boogiewithstu2007]

OMG I can’t believe they escaped that inning without giving up a run …. lol

 

[boogiewithstu2007]

Oh boy, tying run aboard!

 

[boogiewithstu2007]

common baby !! 2 on no outs let’s go !!

That was a hell of a game! We had to watch it delayed tonight but well worth the wait. The biggest thing I took away is that Teo is working his way away from the trading block. The Mariners have been walking a fine line between buyer and seller, if they keep this up there is no way we sell; which means Teo and his hot bat stay in Seattle. I’m not convinced they will keep this up but it feels good to win two games that have the playoff feel. I hope I’m wrong.

Teo is a tough call. I don't know why, but I just don't see the Mariners extending him. Just a gut feeling of mine, and there aren't many great OF options in the next free agent class and I put our chances at making the playoffs very slim. We'd probably need to hit about 88 wins to slide into the third spot. That would require us going 38-26 the rest of the way. It's possible, but I don't know if it'll happen. Players like him are why I wish MLB had the equivalent of a franchise tag.

Wong is a perfect example of Jerry's narcissism. There were a ton of red flags with Wong - albeit none to indicate he'd be this fucking awful - but he wanted him because he couldn't sign him the previous offseason. Also the fact that he's still getting playing time just shows that they're doubling down on their mistake.
