Yeah but most of the time those random SP are doing better than Miley would so I don't mind. The depth at SP is rough this season anyway. It is just happening way to often.

I would agree when looking at the season for Miley, but he was on a good run when we traded him. I have no problem selling high, but we got nothing for him.

That play with o'malley bunting and Martin running was fucking beautiful

O'Malley needs to play every day, period!

I agree that they should be able to find a spot for him to play every day. At least until he cools off. He's played well since the team came back from the all-star break and I hope he can keep it going. Having his speed in the lineup adds a dimension to the lineup that the M's haven't always been able or willing to use this season.

That's how you get your confidence back Caminero!

Aoki is finally hitting the ball well too. It's easy to me, Aoki in left with O'Malley at SS. Might as well just play Lind or place him on waivers cause the production at 1b ain't cutting it. Time for Vogs to come up.

Woot! What a play by Seager to finish off the game... Huge defensive play...

That was huge... defensive play saved the day .. clutch play by Seager ..

 

[Tapey]

Thank you based Kyle Seager

 

[dude82]

A little tight rope walking by Diaz there. Nice to see him battle back and get the outs he needed to get with a HUGE assist from Seager on that last play. That's gotta be one of the best plays of the year given the situation within the game itself and for the team in the wildcard race.

 

[Mariners_44]

What a friggin win! Now we have our Ace on the mound tomorrow for the series, Kuma-time!

 

[cezero]

Oh my Seager.

I know that this isn't the first time on this road trip that the M's have gotten themselves back over .500 on the road, but it's just nice to see them over .500 both at home and on the road. It's been a weird season that way. They started terribly at home, but their play on the road kept them in first place for a while. Then their play on the road dropped off as they just started to level out at home. Now that they're finally well above water at home, it was time to level back out on the road and see if they could get their heads above water there too. It'd be nice to see them head back home a couple games above .500 on the road.

Yep. He's a gamer. As a hitter, I don't know if he has enough natural ability to be a starter, but it seems like he always finds a way to make an impact.

Great way to gut it out. Would much rather see O'Malley in LF vs Aoki. Also thought it was odd when Angels brought in RH relievers that the skip didn't insert Lind or Smith. Dae Ho is doing absolutely nothing at the plate right now. Guti same.

3 of 4 would be excellent. Kuma should be up to the task.

Despite how the bad the Angels have been, all our games with them seem to be tight. This has been an odd series so it's that it will be no worse then a split.

 

[Anointed One]

Oh my Seager.

I wish Niehaus was here to make the call last night... That would've been spectacular...

Miranda and Martin pitching, i'll take a split in those games... Hopefully Kuma can be solid tonight... Taking 3 out of 4 would be cake...

 

[Mariners_44]

Boston just blew a 3-1 lead in the 8th against Detroit, and now they're down a run. #scoreboardwatching

 

[Mariners_44]

Boom, Sox lose! Come on Kuma, let's get this,one tonight!
