Series Thread: M's @ Rangers; May 7th - 9th

[Anointed One]

Can we stop pitching Newsome please

 

[Anointed One]

I know you can forfeit an at bat and put the batter straight on 1B. Can we just forfeit bullpen games as well?

Yeah it’s pretty much a guaranteed loss on bullpen games

 

[NWinAZ]

Well that game was...pathetic.

 

[NWinAZ]

We lose on a play at the plate after gifting them the winning run because our catcher forget it wasn't a force out in the 8th. So Mariners.

 

[SeattleCoug]

No issue with sending Lewis. That was the right call. Throw needed to be on line and it was so kudos to them.
I just can’t wrap my head around a bullpen game being a 1 run game and not having your two best bullpen arms pitch.

 

[SeattleCoug]

Why do we still have Misiewicz? The guy is USELESS.

He threw 1.1 scoreless innings yesterday facing lefties so we bring him today to face righties instead of Graveman or Montero. Servais just makes no sense but he has all the security in the world so yay

 

[Duders]

Servais "cute" little nick names for some players in post game is so f'n stupid. Can you tell I do not like Servais??

Also Texas’ 9th run was scored by the #8 hitter who we intentionally walked for no reason. More Servais magic

That was old school baseball setting up the double play. So apparently Servais can't manage old school or new school ball.

So embarrassing

It's even more aggravating that the higher-ups don't even care that he can't manage either/or.

I am seriously questioning their TRUE intentions for this team now. Is Oklahoma City looking for another team to take from us?

We can thank Dipoto for his choice for his "on the job training" Servais. But you'd think with 5 years he might learn something about Managing. Seattle fans are so committed to their teams and it's the shits that they have had to put up with year after year of piss poor baseball in Seattle. Sell the team to an ownership group that truly wants a winning post season baseball team.

 

[Anointed One]

It’s a good thing we used up a bullpen yesterday

 

[Duders]

??

 

[Duders]

GET OFF YOUR FAT ASS SERVAIS AND DO SOMETHING FOR A CHANGE

 

[AceKeptic]

Yeah, we'd be down by more than just 4-2 by now.

Yeah, this game's done, and so is our season if nothing changes.

[NWinAZ]

I am impressed how the Rangers put the bat on the ball even on bad pitches and make things happen. That is good baseball. While we are trying to hit balls out of stadiums, they are just trying to make contact and then taking advantage of mistakes for homers. Maybe that is why their averages are above .150...
