Just noticed that 13 of the first 16 ames are home games with just a weird 3-game roadtrip to San Francisco. I wonder if a human or an algorithm came up with that one.

That is weird. I didn't look that far ahead. I saw the @ Giants series starting on the 4th or 5th and that is as far as I went. This means a fast start is important. You have to win those home games.

I still think all April games need to be played in the South. With the roof it isn’t bad in Seattle but Manfred said he wants to emphasis entertaining games and it’s hard to enjoy a 2-1 game where it’s 40 and raining.

Yeah, I'd love our early season games to be more away and in the south for the exact reasons you mentioned. It keeps power numbers down at TMobile which is great since our team really revolves around pitching, but the cold/wet conditions aren't great for keeping the shoulder warm and loose, either.

I like to know why our last 3 series are not against ALW teams. We end the year against the Dodgers. We'll probably be long out of the race but I figured divisional matchups the last 2 weeks.

Yeah they really screwed the sport up IMO by playing everyone. If they are still going to have divisions then your schedule should continue to play the 19 or whatever games against each division opponent.

on the other hand, the doyers will probably have a playoff spot clinched by early september, so maybe they'll send out their b players in that final series lol.

They wanted games in September with meaning yet comes up with a schedule against NLW team.

One of them triple AAA pitchers throws a perfect game

Damn, didn’t even think about it that way. That’s some serious glass half full stuff

Typical Seattle Mariners, managing blunder most likely getting a whole bunch of fans to the baseball park during the absolute coldest wet, shittiest weather to start a baseball season in the first month

Me? Optimistic?

Yes, please sign Gilbert ASAP.

But Clown Stanton said this about it: "I don’t know if that’s possible - each player’s different, each player has their own priorities."

Seems like a pretty clear message that there has already been an offer or at least talks of one with Gilbert's agent, and neither side is very close in what they're willing to offer/accept.

Any predictions about the lineup tonight?

 

[wazzu31]

While thats true, but then I don’t get why they still can’t sign them. Most players are taking shorter deals with opt outs. Signing a 32 year old to a 10 year deal, I can understand his hesitancy. But sign a 32 year old to a 3-4 year deal with options. Or just front load the crap out of it. If you look at Cal’s deal, why don’t they realize you can reverse that with an older player
