Series Thread: Mariners at Orioles: Fri, August 1 - Sun, August 3

[seahawksfan234]

Hopefully the Mariners get some revenge for that last series in which we lost 2 games to the O's in extra innings at Safeco. The Mariners are expected to have new additions Austin Jackson and Chris Denorfia in the lineup for this series.

So who leads off tonight? I'm assuming Jackson will be in the lineup but Ackley has been good in that leadoff spot.

Linueup vs. LHP Wei-yin Chen :
Jackson CF
Ackley LF
Cano 2B
Morales 1B
Seager 3B
Denorfia RF
Hart DH
Zunino C
Taylor SS

I like the look of this lineup a lot, but there is a dead spot in the lineup. Anyone guess where?

 

[SeattleCoug]

Probably the DH spot. It seems like he survived the latest roster cuts.

Lloyd said Jackson would be leading off.

ah, missed that quote.

 

[Mariners_44]

Probably the DH spot. It seems like he survived the latest roster cuts.

Pretty obvious

He has made them for now, but I think he is the next to go once Saunders returns. I'd much rather see Saunders or Denorfia at DH when the other is in RF. The same being the case for LoMo and Morales at first. Hart has just lost any hope from me, and when he slammed into the wall yesterday I just felt that his time was up. That play kind of summed everything up, close but no cigar. Gotta go!

 

[SeattleCoug]

Oh well at least Hart can't hurt us in the field tonight I suppose.

 

[Tapey]

ah, missed that quote.

and then I deleted the post because someone posted the lineup above.

 

[Tapey]

with Hart still in the lineup I cant take this team serious about winning.

I've been trying to think of nicer ways of putting it, but I think that's about as nice as it can get.

Sometimes LMC will put him in a position to hurt the team the least.

Perfect.

 

[SeattleCoug]

Trying to be Mr. Glass half Full I suppose. Saunders isn't ready for a rehab assignment quite yet so Hart will be around at least a couple more weeks so I might as well accept it.

 

[seahawksfan234]

1. Corey Hart must have paid someone off to survive that roster cut.
2. The Mariners are so desperate to keep Hart in the lineup that they would put Morales at 1B? LOL

morales

i'll spell his name with a capital letter if he does that again tonight

 

[Tapey]

M's got lucky the catcher did catch the ball.

 

[Msfann]

I seriously cant remember Hart getting any hits this year. They would be better off having Bloomquist DH than him.

 

[cezero]

Time to smoke some herbs and watch some Farscape.

Fuck this team.

 

[NWinAZ]

Cano The Gold Glove.

 

[SeattleCoug]

Pretty gutty performance by Elias. Curveball working and was able to avoid major damage against a good lineup. Unfortunately thats not enough for this team.

 

[NWinAZ]

So that is what a walk looks like? I have heard them talking about it, but wasn't sure what one was after watching all these Mariner games.

 

[SeattleCoug]

The O's scored both runs with 2 out hits. Meanwhile M's were 0-7 with RISP. Difference between a playoff team and an EHHHH team
