Tied 2-2 on a 2 out homer that barely cleared the fence and hit the pole.

Great job charging that weak line drive and throwing a one hop strike to home plate !!

They are just off today. Hancock is the first pitcher in history to not pitch well in Seattle.

Offense definitely picked him up middle innings

Cannot believe we got a bases loaded base knock

It’s a Festivus miracle !!

Why Cal is the best

I personally think Cal Raleigh is the top catcher in all of Major league baseball when you look at offensive and defensive skill set

And considering your average catcher has a reputation for being a slug on the base paths. Cal can actually pick them up and put them down pretty good especially considering that big dumper of a rear end he’s running around with

JP Crawford has raised his batting average at least 100 points these past few weeks

He has really turned his season around from that pathetic start he had.

I really don’t expect a whole lot from him offensively but seeing him lingering around well below, the Mendoza line was painful to watch for an every day player in the lineup

He is definitely worthy of a top three batting order spot the way he’s spraying the ball around and getting on base and as fast as he is on the base paths

Your Seattle Mariners have a .600 win percentage after today’s win against the Anaheim Angels

With all the top prospects we have would you deal one or two of them for Sandy Alcantara? Under contract for two more years after this one. Off to a rough start, but a good pitcher normally.

No. Injuries have hampered him and right now he looks lost and broken down.

It’s fun right now, so enjoy it while it lasts guys. Let’s not forget last year these guys blew a 10 game division lead.

I've always been a fan of Mike Trout, even though he plays for a division rival. I think it's a bit unfortunate seeing the latter of his career marred with injuries. He's 33, so I think he has a few good years left in him if he can stay healthy... he just can't. This year, it looks like he's on track to have the most ABs since the 2022 but he's injured again today. Such a shame for a such a monster player early in his career.

I saw his highlights vs Dodgers and he couldn't even get it to the plate. Something is broken there. I don't have faith in Gilbert finishing the year so picking up a #2 would be huge. I was thinking Sonny Gray as being a good option, but Sandy's name has been bouncing around again (not with the Mariners) so I was curious. He is cheaper now than ever to get.

I am with you on this. He is easy to cheer for, and it is sad to see him go out this way. I know he isn't done, but it hasn't been good for him these last few years. I am hoping he goes out with a bang whenever that point is as long as it isn't vs us.
