Spring Training 2024

[ulmax]

I know some mariner fans were saying that he will turn things around in Atlanta but I think he will continue to be what he has been which is a below average player. I can't believe the Mariners offered him an extended contract like they did Evan White, thankfully he turned it down.

Ohh don't worrie...if it's about baseball..
Your on the right thread..

Matt Brash will not need elbow surgery and his 2024 season isn’t over. Here’s the latest on the Mariners’ hard-throwing reliever.

Yeah, I just read that about Brash. A lot of times when something like this happens they still end up pitching a few games and going out for a long time anyway. Given out luck I think the odds of that are pretty fucking high. But yeah, good news.

Might be a blessing Urias will start on the IL.

If this were next year then sure. It’s not a big loss but who is going to take his AB’s? I don’t want Dylan Moore starting any games at all unless it is to spell JP or Julio. I guess maybe Moore takes those AB’s and Taylor makes the squad. Everyone is talking about Anderson and a couple other guys but they aren’t on the 40 man, and the 40 man full of pitchers is going to be useful in April if Brash is out.

I only mention next because Young or Ford should be ready. I still think Polanco needs to move to 3B. Move Rojas to 2B because they have Bliss waiting in the wings plus possibly Young this year. Bliss nor Young can play 3B.

I hope not. Santos and Munoz both have injury histories and we’ve seen the bullpen run out of gas basically Jerry’s entire tenure.

I definitely remember that, and his reasoning was he was betting on himself

Bad bet cost him a bunch of money

 

[AceKeptic]

Untill his maturity.lvls.rise..i doubt.
He will be making much progress..

Cuz he was blaming .others .

And when he was blaming.himself.
He., foot coolered...

The main.thing.is blaming.
Instead of going about..
Fixing.the problem..

Witch..Kik a cooler dont help that's frustration..

Maybe not, but it SHOULD be a wake up call to the team.

It's true. Sometimes..it's .the foretelling.
Of problems to.
Come...but not always..sometimes..
It's just ..
Inflammation..

 

[ulmax]

Mr Ryan ..has a fat sigh.of relief...

For relief...

For now .

 

[ulmax]

It's still early in spring..
But I think.
Kowar.and/or.vargas may.be added..
To an already...good bull.pen..
Is..
A good senario..

 

[ulmax]

Example..
Thornton..
Voth..

Vargas../bazardo.
Soucedo..

Speier.
Kowar../ santos

Brash..
Monuz..
.....................

Adcock.
Bolton..

Hopefully..mariners have no problem.
With bull pen depth

It’s no different than guaranteed Gilbert will make more than what was offered to him. If Jared plays like he did last year the next two seasons he will make more than the contract offered to him in just arbitration. The entire point of those early contracts is to pay you above the arb numbers so you don’t reach those 20 million that Gilbert will get in 2 years and Raleigh will get in 3. Jared will collect at a minimum 9 which will get him more than he was offered.

 

[ulmax]

Giants..reel in Chapman for 3 year 54mil .deal ..

So Boras has
Snell..
Montgomery..
And..
J.d.martinez to go.

 

[wazzu31]

So how Divish is reporting Brash and Urias both will resume throwing next week. It has been a weird week of reporting on injuries

 

[AceKeptic]

3-0 for Oakland, of all teams.

We go down to them today, you can write off this entire season.

Had he negotiated in good faith he might’ve got something similar to what Evan White got

which I’m pretty sure was a lot more than $9 million. I think Evan White got close to 20 million.

I’ll continue to root for him just because of A. he’s an ex- mariner and B. he’s a young kid chasing a dream and playing a game he loves, trying to scratch out a good living at it
