You might even say.that.seattles.team.

From good pitching..for the most.
Part..
Pushed.there.way.to.the.playoffs..
Early..
With that good pitching....

I would say..exactly.that..and from
Run diff..
It's hard to say...
Naaa..
That's not it...

Lololool

 

[ulmax]

Seattle is.not in trouble.in the outfield.
Just..
At 2b..

 

[ulmax]

Seattle has..outfields this year..
Next year..
An for years.to come..
No..
2b..is the big one..
8f kelenic..can handle..rf..
De loach.on the way..
Marlowe..
Trammel..
Pavkard.
Clase.
Roberto perez.jr..
Alberto.rodriguez..
Bill.knight..
Gabe Gonzales..

Yeah..outfield.is no prob.
2b..that is the.prob.

 

[Anointed One]

The offense has been doing enough lately. They have scored 5 or more in 5 of their last 8 games and has gone 6-2 over that stretch. Sure, half of those were against the worst team in nearly 100 years, but still.

Julio hitting well makes a huge difference

 

[ulmax]

With that..Miami..left handed.2b.
And leadoff..would work
.
For the mariners..with pitching.to.trade
Louis..araez.

1 arraez..2b..L/L
2france...1b..
3.julio...cf.
4.kelenic..RF..L/L
5hernandez..dh/rf
6susrez..3b
7,......LF..L/L..
8 raliegh..catch
9crawford..ss..L/L


Bench..
Murphy..
Moore..inf/ out/ utility.
Haggerty..pr..utility.
Of..
Cabellero..3b/2b

Arraz..Moore.and haggerty..all.play.1b.
No prob..

 

[ulmax]

that said.i simulated.trade..
Mariners..
Brash..
Marlow..
Clase..

Miami.
Arreaz.

 

[ulmax]

Yeah it would have to be tranmell..LF
And bench..outfield.. pollock.for now..

With. the mariners.offence.improved..

This trade..could.get bigger..depending
On.like.if Miami..wanted trammel.

But.this is basic .up there.

 

[ulmax]

Trammell..actually.woks well.fot the mariners
So deloach..could be considered.
I think.tramell..has more.power..
But can he hit..at the big league lvl..

Seems.to.be in..that kelenic..funk..spot..
Between..AAA..and mlb..

 

[ulmax]

If you said a deal..they could not.
Turn down .
Prob.
Brash 24
Hancock..5
Marlowe...cf ..2.1
Kuhn......,.......1.2

Arraez...33.
No that is as much as the mariners could handle..
And they would be scrambling for more pitching..in the draft...
But they do have.picks..
And 2b.seems full..this year..
PolcavichAA
Windash..highA.
Hood.lowA..
And the same.next.year.

 

[ulmax]

With woo.and Mercedes..stocking.up.
AA..
Mariners go after..LHPer..in draft..hunter owen..vanderbuilt
And watts -brown..Oklahoma state

 

[ulmax]

What do you get.from arraez..a bit of instant offence..
Last year..177.hite..

So prob...100 hits.this year..
.he does not strike out that much..
But does walk..
as much as strike.out..

About around 50..a piece..not bad for 550..at bats.
For walks that is 1/2.the ones you need.

He is a hit machine..and plays ok defence as well..

 

[ulmax]

Urfa 2026..base salary..6.1 mil..
Why..
No one else..comes even close..
To what the mariners need.

Julio hitting well makes a huge difference

France has nearly caught up to Kelenic for team avg lead as well.

I mean K is helping him out by falling back down from his earlier avg that was around .300.

The real problem is the M's are dead last in baseball in production from the DH hitting a dismal .146

The teams around the middle of the league are hitting around .248, a full 100 points higher.

I don't care how hot the others get, you can't get that low from your DH and get somewhere.

Kelenic..LF
Conforto .RF

Louis arreaz..2b..works for.me.
Lolololooo.

Take me out to.the ball.game...

As the baseball turns..
Batman..
Da na nu nu da nu da da..
Batman..

 

[ulmax]

Yeah..mariners had there chances.
At both guys..in 5he.9ffseason..
Arreaz.wuod still have been tough to get.
American..to national..
Is the way it usually..goes..
Or the other way around...
Still.with..conforto..260 ave..
30 hrs per..60 walks..would have been right

So.now we will.see.what really happens.
Yeah.im sure.theymmcould have at least..
Went to 5h3 playoffs..
And they stil..may...
But looks more like Texas..right now.

Marco on the mound today.

They are going to need another 5+ run day to stay in this one most likely.

I went t lunch with my brother and his best friend to watch the first half of the game and we were saying that too. Then he was getting squeezed and we thought uh oh. He has survived so far.

I don't care how hot the others get, you can't get that low from your DH and get somewhere.

.146 like you said and even worse, if that is possible, 17 RBI's from the DH spot. Dipoto does understand that DH stands for Designated Hitter and not Don't Hit, right?

 

[NWinAZ]

Another stat.

Against LH pitching, we hit a combined .222 as a team which is 29th in the league.
