Series Thread: Giants @ M's; June 17th & 18th

[seahawksfan234]

Are we SERIOUSLY getting one hit by a guy who has an ERA of over 6 on the road? Jesus fucking Christ. I know I shouldn't be surprised, but this is just fucking ridiculous.

And Ackley swings at 1 of the 6pitches which he pulls a Cano to the 1B with 2 on and 2 out down by 3. Yaaaaa team!

 

[Msfann]

Why is Ackley still on the damn team? he's hitting like .185 but they keep on giving him more and more playing time. he is garbage and always will be garbage. Does the front office really think that hes just going to click and turn it around one day? That reject would have been out of baseball years ago if he was any real team.

 

[NWinAZ]

Is it just me or does every blooper the other team hits fall and every blooper we hit is caught?

God forbid this team can get back to back good games, there is absolutely no way this team sniffs over .500 this year, good to see Cano laughing in the dugout though, at least somebody is having a good time.

Another blowout....

 

[cezero]

i'd love making 3 years' salary in one night of sitting around having a good old time

 

[Msfann]

Each game like this gets us closer to the next regime change right? we can only hope. come on Giants rub it in! beat us by 20 please.

 

[NWinAZ]

ya but the constant remains the same...ownership.

 

[Msfann]

The 2nd worst starter in the NL and he goes 6 2/3 against the M's without giving up a run. /facepalm

 

[Anointed One]

They met my expectations tonight....

Ackley needs to be discontinued... Just like a SKU on a supermarket shelf... It doesn't sell so replace it with something else... Disco it!

"Get strike one, then make them reach." Great stuff from @enosarris on Taijuan Walker's improved control: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/taijuan-walkers-command-then-and-now/…

---------------------

I think he learned this by watching pitchers pitch to his offense.

 

[seahawksfan234]

I find it kind of funny how there is always a lot more activity on game threads when the Mariners lose. If the Mariners started winning, we'd have nothing to talk about!

 

[seahawksfan234]

Walker looking really good so far. Props to him for figuring it out.

Interesting how the Mariners seem to actually be able to work well with pitchers, but these adjustments are never made with our hitters.

 

[seahawksfan234]

9 Ks through 5 innings, pretty impressive.

 

[seahawksfan234]

Wrong thread, boy I'm hungover.

I was just about to post that...lol.
