Mariners MiLB Thread

Not sure if you remember this, but back on CBS I claimed that Seager wouldn't be anything in the majors, I believed he was a mid tier prospect at best.

Happy to say I was very wrong.

We all are.

Danny Farquhar starting for Tacoma tonight. McClendon says it's not about transitioning to starter, but to give him chance to work on things

That makes more sense than trying to convert him to a starter...

Tacoma Rainiers ‏@RainiersLand 1m1 minute ago

Well, Jesus Montero has 6 RBI...and it's only the 2nd inning. So far he's hit a 2-R double and a grand slam. Tacoma leads New Orleans, 6-0.

Tacoma Rainiers ‏@RainiersLand 3m3 minutes ago

Danny Farquhar is finding success in his first career start. He's got 3 Ks, has allowed just one hit through 3.0 shutout innings.

Tacoma Rainiers ‏@RainiersLand 3m3 minutes ago

Patrick Kivlehan ups Rainiers lead to 7-0 after hitting solo shot in the 3rd inning. In related news, Edgar Martinez is in Tacoma's dugout.

Have a night, big (little?) guy!!!!

We all are.

I'm wrong plenty, but I was the opposite when it comes to Seager.

Fell off from watching the M's for about 5 years from 2006-2011.

Came back after hearing great things about Ackley. Tuned in at the beginning of 2012, and immediately started commenting on ESPN that Ackley was a turd, and Seager was the one with real potential.

It's why I still make comments like "high ceiling Ackley", because idiots on ESPN kept telling me how crazy I was for thinking Seager was good and Ack was a pile of shit.

Very gratifying to see Seager do so well, though I truly wish that Ackley had proven me wrong.

Good thing we have Weeks instead of Montero...

What? You don't have me on ignore like most M's fans here?

 

[cezero]

I took everybody off since it was silly on the M's board. I know everybody cares about the team.

I had overlooked one person for some reason, and fixed it.

I think you're pretty new to baseball, and it shows. Nothing wrong with that. It's pretty funny most of the time.

Holy cow. Jesus Montero just hit a 2-run homer over the R-yard -- all the way over it -- in left field.

-----------------------

He must have been pissed by the Trumbo news.

Been gone for awhile. Trying to catch up on some Mariners news and it looks like the big club sucks balls even more now than before I left. So hopefully there is some good things going on in minor league land.
