Series Thread: M's vs A's Aug 13th - 15th

[rightstuff]

On a positive note... Felix is at least keeping us in the game...

Bottom of the 6th. Runner on 2nd.

I predict we come back and WIN.

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Boom not bad. Gotta get offense going, asap.

He hasn't done it much since 2017... Too be honest... He hasn't done it the past 6 weeks... He had almost a 10 era over his last 4 starts...

He has been done for a while now.

On a side note... I'm also a huge closet Red Sox fan... When I was in 3rd grade.. My best friends mom's cousin was, Dwight Evans... He would always come to my friends house on thanksgiving/Christmas in our cold a sac and play football with us... I had him sign his card, my mitt, football, etc... Ever since then, I've always been a huge Red Sox fan...

Gotta admit, it's been nice to have a team like the Red Sox to root for when the M's haven't done squat...

It's been sad - that's for sure...

I'm so desperate for a Mariner win that I would definitely eat Jack's Bowls...

It's sad seeing his decline because he really is an incredible guy...

...But he did refuse to make adjustments. Maybe now that he has been humbled; he may start to realize that he can't pitch like he did when he was dominant.

I ate whatever they gave me in Kosovo, not knowing where it came from. Even after that, I still wouldn't ever want that shit.

Proud of how Felix responded tonight... First time out of the pen and he pitched awesome... Kept us in the game..

He'll likely be replacing Paxton. Hopefully he can work his way back into the rotation.

We need him more than we've ever had... These are the times he needs to step up...

Well said. I hope he does, but I'm not optimistic.

Hopefully Rodney shoots an arrow into his foot like he has as a Mariner.

Remind me again of why we traded for Warren? He has never had a clean inning since joining the M's...

Not including this appearance; 2.54 ERA in his last 92 IP.

 

[Duders]

He has done that since he was 19. Probably lost more 1 run games than any other pitcher during that span.

To be fair- Felix lost a lot of 1 run games when he was truly the "king" due to the fact the offense wasn't giving him the run support he was due.

 

[seahawksfan234]

"This brings up Mike Zunino"

Guess the game is over.

 

[Anointed One]

Tired of listening to the postgame garbage... We're 0-2 in the biggest series of the season so far... Stop sugar coating this... Paxton getting hurt is not the reason we lost... Our offense continues to let us down...

 

[Duders]

Oh well, Houston lost, Mariners lost and Oakland wins? The way the A's are playing, they might be bumping Houston around a bit. Be back tomorrow for a W, ok?
