Series Thread: M's v. A's, 8/24-8/26

[cezero]

After this series, there are only 2 more homestands left in this miserable season.

Anyway, here's tonight's lineups:

Mariners looking about as good as my investment portfolio this past week.

my investment portfolio consists of power ball ticket and a Publishers Clearinghouse entry

This series features the battle to see who stinks the worst so they can get a top 5 pick... Woohoo! We DFA'd Rodney too soon... We could've used his help this series...

Yep, Mariners can't even lose right....

 

[Anointed One]

I'm so tired of Zunino...

Oops... Did I say that out loud?

 

[Anointed One]

So tired of McL doing a piss-poor job managing a pitching staff... Can we just have Edgar coach the rest of the way? This team is so hard to watch...

We're up 5-0 nothing going into the 5th and he finally takes Iwa out after we're down 7-5 in the 5th...

awful team is awful

same as it ever was

 

[SeattleCoug]

Trumbo in the OF will kill you every single time

 

[NWinAZ]

Ya he, Cruz, and Montero in the field together is a recipe for disaster.

 

[SeattleCoug]

But solo home runs tho! Except when an extra out leads to 7 runs. Jacky's plan doesn't cover that

 

[NWinAZ]

Cano with two more great plays. Falls asleep with throw to 2nd that leads to a run and his inability on the bases earns the team a 3rd out in the 1st when he slides off the base...again. Worth every penny.

And he will be in the lineup tomorrow because we have accepted that shit all year with him.

Does it really matter? They can't develop talent for shit... It would be a waste for a top 5 to be drafted here... He'll just come and rot like the rest of them.

 

[AceKeptic]

We might just take over that AL West basement yet. A few more embarrassments like last night oughtta do it.

Montgomery vs Chavez tonight: Yeah, that's a loss.
Felix vs Bassitt, who's 1-5 this season: No problem; we can help with that.

REBUILDING

[PolarVortex]

Every loss is a win because it will improve where we pick in the draft....oh wait, Jack Z will be choosing who we draft. Nevermind.

 

[Anointed One]

What's been lost in all our suckiness is how well Marte has been playing...

 

[Msfann]

Leadoff double by Marte and they couldn't even manage to move him over to third.

 

[seahawksfan234]

The magic of Mike Montgomery has disappeared.
