[ulmax]

Z top 9.mariners..up

 

[boogiewithstu2007]

Nice win, hope they can start putting a streak together… They need to

 

[ulmax]

I was joking after another sad strike out from him. I like Moore as long as they keep him as a utility guy. I don't need to see him start several times per week.

Agreed..never the less..Moore does his job.
And gets...slammers..sometimes..

But one Moore..is enough..everyone else.
Needs to hit.
.

 

[ulmax]

I've done my draft homework....

But I think.marinere.still.need a 2b
For this year.and.next.and beyond..
They can prob handle.everything else.

Prob.is.and has been .a 2b.who can hit.

Yeah.the outfield.would prob.end up.
Taking care.of itself.
.
prob

1 Crawford.....ss..L
2julio.....cf
3.ill.put.gacia..but the odds are not good.2b
4france..1b
5hernandez..dhRf
6 kelenic..LF.L.
7.suarez....3b.
8Raliegh.catch.
9.trammel..rf..is.the.best..guy.they.have.so.far.unlees.hernand3z..
But then no dh.



Bench .
Murphy.
Moore.
Cabillero..
Of..Left..could be deloach..

 

[ulmax]

Pollock.got some hits to night..so that was good...
But what will they do.in the future..
So far..1outfield shy..really.2
And a 2b..yeah..unless ya count one as dh

 

[ulmax]

Last year...of cano..sal..3.5.mil
White.is costing 3.mil.tell.opt out.in 26.
If he is still injured.it would.
Prob be considered a car .
By then..

 

[ulmax]

Ian happ.trade.is good for.mariners..
Hitting.266..he is a steady bat.in LF
They have been saying for years to trade for
Him.inthink he will be.free agent the next year
3rd.in bases on balls

 

[ulmax]

Switch hitter.at.#9 would work.for me..
In LF..kelenic.in.rf.

 

[ulmax]

It's a bit obvious to me ..
Know that we see Micheal conforto healthy.
He may be the best..option..in 2024..
Not the cheapest..
Option though..and he will probly..be seeking.
A raise..he prob still.
Be good for..at least.an other..
3 or 4 years..
At least..at 30..years old..

Hernandez.from the right side..same thing.at 30 years old.

2 hot free agents..in 2024.
Conforto prob opt out..maybe..

 

[ulmax]

That said..here is the thing..if..you.want.
A dh..
From picking from.your normal.players..
Then you need good normal.players.
As good on the bench.as on the field.
With the mariners..
That.is not the case...
You don't have..9..every day.players..
So even picking a dh..
Maybe hard..to do..
So..
The whole..dh..argument..is.

Mute.

 

[ulmax]

Well.you prob..but.not always would need an extra outfield.for dh..prob a rf..or a 1b..
Usually..s bopper..
But..you can switch.around...its no big..
But .
If your talking seriously..
A.hernandez..
And.
Conforto..
Should be hitting..
One after.the.other.
.both
As rf./.Dh
Just good..baseball.
In my view..anyway....yeah.so.not.always.
But a lot..5 outfields.
Cuz 1..is a dh..
2 1b..
One is backup..dh.
The way it works .a lot..when teams.
Can make.it do so..

 

[ulmax]

So.if.you.say..in draft..

Locklear..
And.
Shcanuel..
Both..1b..yeah.ya.need.at.least.yhat.maney.

Then cam fisher..rf Charlotte as well.

Using..draft..instead of mlb players..
Plus
Perez jr..rf AA.

Yeah.the..next.double spot.is..cf and ss but that is a.dif argument..
Lol9lool

 

[ulmax]

Chinsing the way..8s not the way to.
Get 8t done.as the japanees have.done.
For.20.years..
But you could make.an argument..
For fontanelle..R/R.instead.of.shanuel..L/L.

Lololol

 

[ulmax]

But..mariners have young pitching.
So..
Even.if..
No center of the.lineup
Tell.
Locklear..and.or.
Shcanuel.
Fisher.
Perez..
Mariners will.have.to.do...something.
and maybe a trade..or 2.can help..

for..the..fun..of it.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

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.

Shame. Houston is solid and he saw Texas add players so you'd think Dip would think we have to get into the FA race to stay competitive but instead do nothing outside of 1 trade.

 

[ulmax]

You could look at it this way.
..get the line of pitching going..
whitch.the mariners.have..done a good job so.far..
and know..the hitting..line..trading a few pitchers..for sustainability..
So.if .that is the way..

its stil..
Ok..
Whitch..Miami..has done...
Sort of....
every..rebuild franchise..does a bit.diff..
but you can see the struggle..with most..
not as much.with Baltimore...so.far..

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

The whole team..does.not make 400 mil.
Just stop.
Mariners can not afford ohtani.
I could.go..with.
The cubs..rf..though..or is it LF..

Ohtani isn't making 400 mil per year. C'mon dude, you're better than that.
Yes the Mariners can afford him but they're a bunch of cheap assholes. Stop with the Mariners can go this way or that way with a crown jewel of a FA going to hit the market. The point is to win a WS!

Well...it's a story..of commitment..
Mariners.hit..ohtani..just.fine
But..
To get otahni..you would need to trade.castillo..
I don't think.they.will..i.could be wrong.
But I have always thought..he would be a dodger..
Again.i could be..wrong..
Just.the way I have seen it..

 

[ulmax]

Agreed on world..series..
But it seems more like.the.mariners are.
Kiking.the can..right.now.

And if they were going to get a free agent.

Why did they not..sign conforto..
When..they just lost. Santana..

Whitch is who.they could..use..
But he is in..
San Francisco..
I just don't see.them doing it ..
