Stick the Trident fork in them ... they are DONE.

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.
We’re not even half way through the season, while it looks bleak right now, things could turn around, baseball is such a marathon … But as of right now this team is just flat, uninspired …Stick the Trident fork in them ... they are DONE.
Julio too busy making jokes with all his buddies on other teams. You can love him, I don't have too.
Fucking watches 99 straight FB down the middle of the plate with tying run on 2B with 1 out in the 9th. Too much of this from him this year. Watching strikes and swinging at dirt balls.
We are going to need 4-5 JK HR's tonite as we are rolling out a pitcher with I think a 27.0 ERA
I don't know what's up with him. I don't think he's getting the best coaching. I don't think any of them are getting the best coaching.Julio too busy making jokes with all his buddies on other teams. You can love him, I don't have too.

And this is where I really get pissed in the offseason when we don't sign a legit bat. I think you need a guy that chews ass when needed but he has to be a vet and a guy that leads the team as atop hitter. Nobody wants to hear it from a kid or a guy who doesn't play or doesn't produce when he plays. Nelson Cruz helped this team with more than just by hitting homers. His leadership was second to none. Maybe he didn't chew ass, maybe he did, but he led.I get that Julio is having fun, but you shouldn't be having fun when your team is 4th in the division. Someone needs to teach him to have his fun after the game and lock in during it.
Teo getting picked off at 1st base during an actual rare rally is a microcosm of this entire season so far.Stop me if you have heard this one before...Mariners runner picked off 1B...
I look at it this way, he got on base. He probability was so excited and forgot what everyone learns at Little League. Baby steps!Teo getting picked off at 1st base during an actual rare rally is a microcosm of this entire season so far.
This team is not built to win consistently. They just aren't.
