The White Sox are already eliminated. Other than batting average (a difference of .003), the Mariners are better than the White Sox in almost all other categories. Mariner pitching is fine, but the offense needs some help.

Saying the Mariners need some help on offense is the equivalent of saying Gaza needs some aid

He’s batting .280 with the red so far in 44 games. Definitely doing better than he did with the Mariners. Imagine that.
Nice. I watched a video of him talking about Julio's struggles and he basically said way too much pressure on a 23 year old. I get that and I think the M's failed him in that way by not getting legit stars around him, but also wah. Nobody forced him to take all that money either.

I think it is all relative. If France didn't perform well in Cincinatti he would be well on his way out the league and probably be a career playing jumping from the majors and minors.

Also it is the same with Victor Robles how his former teams are grinding their teeth that he didn't perform this way with their teams.

Victor Robles only played for one other team.

Nats didn't let him play a full season after 2019 probably because of his "all about me" prima donna tendencies. Barely played a total of a half season this year between us and the nats. Not sure a small sample size like what he did for less than 80 games with us proves anything, but seeing him do that stupid little bunny hop and drop the ball on routine fly ball in one of his first plays here along with the one of the worst baserunning errors you'll ever see when the team was fighting for a WC in its last few games said a lot to me.

France's slash line wasn't that much different with the Reds vs the M's this year. His WAR was actually worse with them than us.
