as my friend brocnosmitty said, we're facing their worst pitchers, including a guy who had never made an MLB start before this season, i believe.

and detroit had to fly further.

no excuses not to do well, but this is the mariners.

I think it's pretty sad that I'm happy Ackley is playing over Trumbo but that's where we are

Very interested to see Iwakuma and how he looks. I have very little confidence in him going into this start, hope I am wrong. There are multiple benefits to him doing well.

LOL... Was just thinking the same thing... Last time Ackley had a mulit-hit game, McL benched him the next 3 games in favor of Trumbo... Ackley had a multi last night, let's see if he can get some momentum going off last night...

Good Lawd... Runners on 1st and 2nd w/ one and and next two batters K...

 

[Anointed One]

Iwa's going to get shelled tonight...

 

[cezero]

safeco + mariners + 1 run deficit in the 2nd inning = L

Iwa's going to get shelled tonight...

I was just going to say.... Is it just me or does Kuma look like he is throwing fucking meatballs up there?

 

[SeattleCoug]

God they suck

 

[Anointed One]

Iwa seems to always give up a dinger or two...

 

[Anointed One]

The M's need to trade Cruz at the break if there is a team interested... We're not going to go anywhere... Better to get something for him...

We don't just have to chase Houston but the Halo's are hot as well... No way we catch both of them... Only shot we would have is at a WC spot...

 

[SeattleCoug]

Simon has been awful too. We swung ourselves out of 3 walks already.

 

[cezero]

who needs elias when you have iwakuma.

time to watch some reruns of the west wing. such a great show.

 

[Anointed One]

0 out and man on 1st... Any faith that we'll score the guy on 1st?

 

[Anointed One]

Woohoo! Ackley with a triple to score the runner from first... Whoda thunk it

0 out and man on 1st... Any faith that we'll score the guy on 1st?

DAMN IT. I WANTED TO BE ABLE TO POST THIS!!!!!!!!!

Gotta keep playing Ackley against righties.

LOL or three

I agree, play the hot hand while its hot.
