It pisses me off more when they have those breakout games knowing they do have more in the tank than they give us every night.

Didn't Servais say something after the 10 run game against the Yankees about telling the team to play the full 9 innings and get after it early? If you have to tell your team that nearly half
way through the season you've already lost the plot of this book.
Yeah, but we don't exactly have the best attention span in the Majors. The two games since the tirade were nice, like something finally clicked, but we can't expect them to remember it long-term.

I read the M’s are in talks with the Padres about trading for Snell. No idea if true, but also as great as it would be to get him, they need 2 big bats.

Along with, as messed up as it sounds, they have to hit on all 3 first round picks which blows cause they are so low and with where the roster is at they might have to go college guys with lower ceiling than higher ceiling hs prospects.

Normally I say take player available, but I agree with what you are saying. More high school kids put all our top prospects in the 18-21 range which is 3-5 years away minimum. I would love to see some 24-25 year old top prospects right now.

I haven't heard that one and I don't get it. Maybe they are worried about the kids and their workload. But bats, bats, bats has to be what we go after.

I couldn’t tell you a single thing about a prospect but there are position players in their draft range that look nice but they are HS. It’s almost like they have to pull a 180 and do college hitters and hs pitchers. This season has been a kick in the balls because outside of Kelenic no one has really taken the next step and they can’t keep moving the goalposts when they can be a WS contender. Especially with Portland in the running for expansion.

Last two games (with the 9th inning still to come), we have scored 6 runs off of 5 homers.

Yeah I know I said this..but it's really..
Ya know..
Hernandez...needs.a..renfro..spot..
Not a haniger spot..
So I can't blame him totally..
And he needs the protection..of a better .
Lineup..
Than the mariners have at this time.
So when..he is a free.agent..

But maybe you could..trade..for
J.j.blyday...

But last I saw he was not doing that great
Traded.trom Miami to Oakland..
And Miami..may have interest..prob not Oakland though..

This is about all the Seattle local media will be talking about tomorrow. Exit velocity and how many feet he hit that. Without addressing the real issue.
