What the hell happened to this sport? I remembered not long ago there was wire to wire national coverage on opening day on TV. I just checked and there is just 1 tomorrow on ESPN? I’m not counting ESPN+ because I’m very much against a pay to view on top of a cable service.
Adam Jones official retires and he will do so as a member of the Orioles.
The Erik Bedard trade now come full circle and one of the absolute worst trade in franchise history. Thanks Bavasi!
Jones ends his career with 282 HRs, 945 RBI, 5x AS, 4x GG, and a Silver Slugger Award.
Bedard...
Got handled by the Astros riding a 14 game win streak. Now Rangers for 3 before a VERY tough stretch against the Astros again for 4 and Yankees for 3.
Could lose control of the situation again fast if they don’t at least take 2 of 3 from Rangers.
No Julio again for tonight btw
Astros just swept the Yankees in a makeup doubleheader.
This is a very very solid team so I’m thinking this is where the streak ends.
Hoping to get to 15 or 16 or just 2 out of 3 with these fookers. Gonna be a tough series
So I know someone asked the other day, I forgot who and I apologize about whether we want to start a separate series thread or go with a season long.
I like the idea of having a season long thread instead as many of us can sometimes forget to start one individually. If anyone feels like there...
It's official as of 12/19/18 for the next 25 years.
So here's a couple of topics for discussions.
1) Will the M's make the playoffs under the "T-Mobile Park" within the next 25 years?
2) Will the M's win a division title under the "T-Mobile Park" within the next 25 years?
3) Will the M's...

Seriously? What the fuck is wrong with this organization? More reason to hate them.
1st they refused to share the SoDo district with Hansen and...
Mitch Haniger - 1st ever selection
Edwin Diaz - 1st ever selection
Nelson Cruz - 6th selection
Okay with this list, makes a lot of sense. I’ve read arguments where some think M’s Paxton and Segura were snubbed and my counter is that I don’t think they’ve done enough. Segura is very borderline...
No rest for the wicked. Welcome back to Safeco! Tough turn around having to play again after traveling across the country from Baltimore home after a 4 games series.
M's: 51-31
Royals: 25-55
Expecting them to show up and buried the Royals.
June 29: Gonzales (7-5) vs Kennedy (1-7)
June 30...
On his 3000th hit! He was one of my all time favorite Mariners and it's great to see such achievement.
If anyone here came from the ESPN forums days should remember there was always a debate going whether or not Beltre's contract at the time was worth it for the M's. Always contended it was...
The clueless people in Dallas and the media want to call him an "emotional leader" but this guy is nothing more than a piece of classless trash.
Apparently after the hit on Lockette he said "that's what you fking get!" -- that prompted both sidelines to clear onto the field.
After the game he...
With 87 wins in 2014, the Mariners missed the playoffs by one game.
IF:
By all means, they SHOULD'VE improved this year.
But, if they had reached 87 wins in 2015, the Mariners would've edge the Astros by one game. Would've even host the Yankees at home for the WC game.
On paper stats means...
One of my main concerns in the offseason and coming into the season was whether or not the bullpen is capable of pitching like they did last year. So far, through the first month of the season, they haven't and it already cost the M's some games in April. Regression was going to happen and it...
M's appear to be very serious in adding another bat to the lineup and especially in the outfield... Reports are, they're willing to give Cabrera the similar figures as Cruz. All I can say is make this happen! Cabrera will add that bat and outfield needs and also a huge balance to this lineup...
...that in 3 games Russell Wilson leads the NFL with a passer rating of 108.9? Also with a 69% completion... he's right where they want to be when all the talks in the preseason was trying to get him at 70%.
Yes, it's three games and we'll have to see if this sustain.
But hey, he's just a...
Seriously, after the SB last season there were so many excuses out there as to why Denver lost.
The latest one out there is no different. "Hey! It's obvious we can't beat Seattle... so let's change the rules" -- Obviously they want to change the OT rules again after it was already changed. Not...
