Series Thread: M's in Oakland, 4/10-12

I don't care if that is an error you put the ball in play, good things happen!

 

[cezero]

excellent

 

[Itsmytime]

Hahn is avoiding Cruz like the plague!

 

[unlvmariners]

I'll take it.

 

[Msfann]

I'm not sure I agree with it being an error. The way the ball was hit so hard and location made it hard for him to glove it. I would give him a base hit.

 

[cezero]

they might correct that, but he got his glove on it, so i wouldn't count on it.

 

[Msfann]

Felix can still get the win now right?

 

[Itsmytime]

THERE WE GO!

Yes he can.

Good lord... You gotta slide, Cano... Great job by the M's this inning to put some runs up on the board...

 

[Msfann]

Get Felix the win guys! that would be awesome to pick him for a change.

 

[cezero]

besides power, that's a huge value of having cruz in the lineup. love seeing kyle make them pay the price for pitching around the big guy.

 

[unlvmariners]

This... The heart of the lineup is struggling... Especially the only hitter on the team that hits over .300 ,sadly enough... .136, .150, .180 is what we're getting out of the heart of the order... Thank goodness Ackley and Miller have been hitting well with RISP... I don't now where we'd be if it weren't two... LOL... Never thought I would say that... It's a good sign though...

Glad to see them getting after Hahn...

When they are productive we can get runs!

Yep... Outside Cruz' power numbers, his presence in the batting order, whether he get's a hit or not, gives others hitting around him more opportunities for success...

When they are productive we can get runs!

And when they can be productive, we won't lose many games w/ our starting pitching staff...

 

[Itsmytime]

Did any of you just see the view off the Coliseum parking lot and in the bottom right hand corner there was a white van parked like a dick?

 

[Anointed One]

Can't wait to have Chris Taylor back for his defense though... He's not a bad hitter either...

Taylor would've snagged that grounder that Miller couldn't get to...

 

[Anointed One]

Lost in the Shuffle is the fact that Zunino has a base hit today w/ no K's...

Do I dare say, "This is the season Ackley breaks out"? Too early?

Here's hoping to see this happen
