Series Thread: Mariners crucial 'road trip thread' TX - SD - LAA

[ulmax]

Jerry's plan, just like when he was with the Angels. isn't cutting it. He and his sidekick Scotty Boy need to be replaced- his time has run out. SOS year after years Sell the organization to a group who really wants to have a competitive team and are willing to invest the .bucks to make it happen. Last season was an exception, now it's back to the same old shit we've been putting up with for years. Seattle fan base deserves oh so much better.....period!!!

Jerry Dipoto says there’s no easy fix as Mariners are ‘struggling madly’

“By far the most perplexing is what has roughly been a power outage up and down our lineup. We are built to do damage,” Jerry Dipoto said of his team.

Hey.duders...
No.they.have done.a good.job.

.just.not.
The job..
We exactly.wsnted..of them..
The owner..is the boss..always..

Not just baseball....
It's his business..we are.the patrons..
Of his business..

Guaranteed...he knows..we want to.win.
Never the less...

However.a tampa.fold.into..the.existing..prospects.
Would work..at AAA..andAA
With a few trades of coarse..a 2b.and 3b
Would work..
With a handy..draft just in time.

If that.is the plan...cuz..
1. finding.a 2b..that.will.work..for.the mariners.
That an other team will..trade..
Is just.frustrating..
Without .selling the farm..to.do it.

So a fold back.is accually.a good.
Idea..
2.the mariners.center.of the lineup.
Hernandez..Suarez..
And just..where is that Santana..
So.
Those.2 things..are.the trouble..
No..
Not a step.back...
A fold.back..for prospects..and a draft.

If that makes sense..
To be able to move forward.properly..

Dream team.for example..

Crawford..2b.L
Julio..cf
Locklear..1b/dh..L
Perez jr..RF......cam fisher..chalotte
Shcanuel..dh/1b...L
3b..unkown
7.Kelenic..LF...L
8.raliegh.
9..2b.unknown..
Young.is.the.ss

Bench..
Ford..
Moore.
Cabellero..
Of unknown

They have guys..as we can see..need.to trade
For a few more..a 2b and 3b..
Which.is not a lot but..

Also.need enough time..
For Locklear..and schanuel..(who.is not even drafted yet..to evolve..to the big leagues

It won't take long..
Both..are advanced.bats..

but mariners..have no center..guys..none.

Mariners do..have pitching..
Thank.goodness..
So trading..will.not hurt..
In a fold.back..

That's what..I have..sense yesterday..
After reading..710..
That..that..is prob..the best coarse..

And with it hard..to get free agents..

Yeah.i.think.the mariners knew..when
They signed.julio..
Or not long after..

No..sir..it's game on..if it's a fold back.

Jedi has performed.well..and with.
The..bull pen...yes he has .

Scott servais..is at a handycap..
Of..
Less than.
.so don't blame him.

Its lack.of personal....for now..

 

[ulmax]

No.jedi told us..but ya have to.know I guess.
Or.read.between the lines..

And Hurds.question..gave it away..
To the point of being obvious...
So..yeah.
Really.just him asking.the question....
Gave us the answer...

 

[ulmax]

So from what I have seen from
Tampa Bay..,sandiego..and Baltimore..
from the rebuilding..process..
all have done it diff..
sandiego being.the worst off..
but baltimore.has not traded..any.prospects.
either.
But tampa.just..keeps.folding.back.till.they.had.
So maney prospects at.AAA.
How could they not...
Be winning..

Yes.san.diego.experiences..the.same.troubles.
The.mariners.are having..know.
The mariners..want to deal..with it.in.a.healthy..way...

Understood..

 

[ulmax]

Reality...
Mariners.rebuild..taking.s.bit longer..
Yeah..that.would..be..ok
.not saying..they..are.not..stringing.us.
Along..
But.the ..state..of.the.matiners..is as good.
As it has ever..been..

If.they fold it back..

No joke..

The alternatvie...come out.and say.
yeah..I'm a loser..

Shure.if you going to retire.who cares.

..yeah right.

 not

 

[ulmax]

Jedi..is the best.guy.to continually.
Rebuild..
Bull pens I've ever seen..
No joke..
Fire him..you must be crazzy..

 

[ulmax]

No the San diego..probs..just conferm.
The struggles..of all clubs..coming from.
Re -build...you can expect it..
I'm out.
Too.chess.

[ulmax]

Salute..
Down ready set..
Fire..
Ready set..
Fire..


Gomerha..gomerha..
Fire

21 fun ..saaalute

Or Stanton needs to sell his majority share to whoever the Portland group is funded by. But on a positive note they got 3 first round picks so that should line up with Ford, Young, Clase and hopefully Celestine.

That fucker needs to sell to the Portland group, Cuban or whoever wants to put a winning product on the field and is willing to spend some money. 3 firsts are nice but I'm tired of waiting, I want a WS for this franchise.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

Love the comment

Did the dipshit think we were only 1 player away from contending after the Houston series? If that's his thought than he needs to resign. He needed to add 2 or 3 bats plus a starter to replace Marco who should have went to the pen this year.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

Mariners don't need ohtani..
And cost to much..
Anyway...
The rotation.they have know..is awesome.
The bull .pen..a murphee..
Away..
Ha and maybe a swannie..ouch..lolol

Mariners..are a good.club..with..a few..
Trades .a really good..club..
That is why..Hurd..
Wanted to wake him up a bit..
So..ok..moving..on..

And with all the trades..mariners should be able to retain..
Hancock..
Dollard..
2 really.good pitchers .with Mercedes.
Van scoter.should be at..AA..in not.to.long
At.AA as well.
Seems good .for the draft.

No, the Mariners do need Ohtani. I don't gives 2 craps what the cost is but he provides everything from hitting (which this team sucks at) and pitching (unless you prefer the mighty Marco). He wants 400mil, you give it to him.

He did or at least he pushed that viewpoint all offseason. Only fans that didn't have their collective heads up his ass knew differently.

What I’m sick of is how negative I was for off-season, only to be suckered in and getting excited then this shit to happen. I equate it to the Mike Leach era of the Cougs. We would be front runners for the division and needed to win the Apple Cup to go to the CCG, could convince ourselves we would win this time then of course the games were what they were.

Obviously Jerry won’t fire himself, but Scott needs to be let go or something big needs to happen. Like the brawl last year and they got the Angels coming up but it would look dumb them picking a fight for no reason.

I honestly don't blame you for getting sucked in. On paper, this rotation had the potential to be the best in baseball. Idk, I thought that this team had the potential to be slightly better than last year, but I don't think I accounted for how lucky we got. I also didn't expect regression from the entire lineup minus Kelenic and Crawford.

FWIW I think that Leach actually did a great job with the Cougs, and I was scared of them every time UW played them. Leach will also go down as one of my all time favorite people.

There has been substantial regression and if Servais is such a shit leader that a fight takes him to get his team zoned in, that's a leadership problem. A good leader challenges you to be better than you were before and they help you create a path to do that. Only player who is playing substantially better than expected is Kelenic.

So the great .240 Crawford costs us 2 runs and the lead.

 

[Msfann]

These announcers keep getting annoyed when the umpire calls a pitch off the plate by like 4" a ball. Its not even close to the strike zone, I don't know what they are watching.

 

[MarinersBestFan]

The 3 hit wonders strike again
