He needed more time in RR anyway. I didnt think the SSS as a reliever was enough to bring him up and have him wasting away in the BP for weeks anyway, he needs to pitch more. Thus is the reason I think this team still needs to be looking for RP and not Robbie Ross Jr. types of guys

Jackson might still end up being a very effective pitcher one day, but they haven't really given him much of a shot to do it. They need to leave him in AAA for now.

Yep I think the Padres got a mercy game last night and I also said earlier in the week the M's had another cupcake. Little did I know the Padres are a whole fucking box of "Little Debbies".

You know what is scary? Kyle Seager's bat is smoking hot right now. He had 10 or more RBI's in the Padres series alone. Guess where he's going next? Arlington...... He seems to kill the Rangers when we are at home. I've noticed that the Rangers usually do better against the Mariners up in Seattle and they usually beat us here. Gotta get at least 1 game this series.

Their park favors our pitchers vs their hitters in our park and they are better so far on the road this year. I hope for 1 game

JD's friend should be high tailing it off that team.

Actually it works best for us if Preller stays there. After tonight's SD late inning melt down, it is an opportune moment for JD to pick up the phone and tell Preller why he 'needs' Prince Fielder and how he 'needs ' to swallow most of his salary. Of course it would take a Jedi mind trick to make this happen.

Bronx cheer from Padres fans as SD finally gets third out of 7th after Mariners score nine runs that inning and 14 in 2 inn. for 16-12 lead.

So...9 2-out runs for the Mariners. Now up 16-12

10 different Mariners hitters combined for 13 hits, 2 walks, a hit batter and 14 RBIs in last 2 innings.

So much for the lock there @Nightcrawler
Whoever has Mariners on their fantasy team must be giddy tonight.

A comeback at 12-2? Cmon man..... It's locked down. Mariners come in here down one game.

Do you ever tire of being wrong? Asking for a friend.

Jamey Newberg's report today is a good read.

MVP. | Texas Rangers Blog | The Newberg Report

The Most Valuable Part of the 2016 Texas Rangers, a third of the way in, is this team’s depth. The vertical length of the roster (and beyond) that Jon Daniels and his crew assembled going into the season has been indispensable.

This is why I don't do FBB. Tainted rooting spirits. Ha

Don't worry I'm worse than Banister. I have Prince Fielder growing moss on my fantasy team bench. Well at least I have him on the bench. :)
