Series Thread: 10-Game Roadtrip: 5/16 - 5/25

They open a 9 game homestand tomorrow in which they are favored in every game. Still, while you would want to expect nothing less than a 6-3 record at home, I'm not going to be surprised at all if they go 4-5 or even 5-4, but I'd be very surprised if they won 7+.

Yes, because we know they aren’t as good as they showed early, it’s basically the same offense as last year …

We do know that, but Jerry still tries to fool those that buy everything he sells. Jerry boy doesn't deserve to win, but unfortunately if he doesn't win we all lose again.

Things happen. Mariners .are still good
Although.i missed.
The game .
Seems legoimina.gave up.2. Runs.

Could be worse..as last year..
But it's not...
Bring on natbats

This is a flawed statement. Mariners are good against shit teams and poor with the occasional little luck against the better teams. They are who we know they are.

Garbage series of shit hitting and piss poor defense with winnable games on the line. This is what the FO gets for spending 5 bucks thinking it's a WS team. Houston/Texas will probably make a move or two before the deadline to make that push so it'll be interesting if our dumbass FO will do the same or just fade away late August.

Split is absolutely their ceiling. Sadly I'd guess going 1- 3 on the series is more likely. Hope I'm wrong.

You jinx it. Baliff?

Now, now. Hold up. I posted the stats after the Padres sweep. They actually had a winning record against teams over .500 at that time.

Between now and June 19, the Mariners only play 1 team that's currently above .500, and that's the Guardians (June 13-15). I'm betting Boston will get to at least .500 by the time we play them on Jun 16-18, though.

I feel like we MUST play several games above .500 until June 19th, and I'm circling that date.

Because after that, from June 20-Aug 3 (more than 6 weeks) the M's only have 1 day off other than the AS break. It's going to brutal AF.

As nice as it was we knew it was a mirage. We need 2 legit bats (realistically 3) to have any chance at contending for the division. Also need our rotation to get and stay healthy.

Also need Polanco to prove that his April stats were not a fluke. Haven't seen that proof as yet.

4-5 seems overly confident.

Watch them get humiliated by the Nats while they're building their road streak.

A lose tonight calls for stale beer thrown on the field.
