Series Thread: M's at Yankees, August 1-3

[AceKeptic]

Not gonna lie, after that Houston series, I don't see us faring any better against another division leader.

This team can be hot or cold. I could see them surprising us and doing well vs the yankees. But that's probably mostly wishful thinking.
This series would be fun to win.

 

[Msfann]

Nevermind. Marco BP gonzales is pitching today. This one may be over before the yankees get an out.

 

[AceKeptic]

Game over already.

Kelenic is Dustin Ackley.

These are the series you're supposed to prepare for.
Fail to show up, much like Gonzales is doing today, and you don't DESERVE to have a wild card spot.

I was hoping we would go at least 2-5 on this road trip. That's still on the table, but I'm not in the least surprised going beyond that is very much off the table.

Losing the top two players from an already thin batting order is pretty much a death nail for team with no depth.

Are Dipoto/Servais 7 yrs in?? And we're still begging for a WC spot? Worse record in professional sports, but we keep hanging in there, year after year, after year, after year.........

Mariners offense also a no show, can barely threaten against a guy with an ERA over 8.

Kelenic is Dustin Ackley.

At least Dustin Ackley retired with a .241 batting average. Prior to this game, Kelenic is at a .171 career batting average.

I really hope the Mariners put me out of my misery and trade Kelenic.

I see why he was once a consensus top-5 prospect, I watch his ABs closer than anyone else on the team. Every time he steps up to the plate, I hope he does something that proves me wrong and that he has finally figured it out and he ends up disappointing me.

Now that I think about it, Kelenic is the ultimate Mariner. Disappointment.

Ofer night for Kelenic

Ofer night for Kelenic

2 in a row. At this rate, he’s gonna make Chris Davis look like Babe Ruth.
