He prob could not push a lot with that
Knee .I'm just..saying..it made my legs
Look like kilinec back in the day..
Loololol

 

[ulmax]

Getting Trevor story would have been
No good either..he has done lousy..
With Boston...
So I'm happy with frazier...but...lolo
Yakees will make a push for him..

I would..with verry few..2b on the market...and A utility..he is what they need..to make..everthing..else work

So if that happens..mariners need
A plan..

 

[WizardHawk]

Wanker..can be traded..he has value.
In national and he is having an ok year
In the american...by no means great..
But Seattle fans are fustrated..
With his struggles..cuz..they want
playoffs...and deserve it ..i would say

Santana has value as well...
And right know..is dh..and white..
Has work..to do..to be as good..
So I could see an other year..for
him..and cuz they like him in the club
House..

Haniger struggles..make even a bigger case for conforto...and

I'm not sure on this but..what if his srtuggles..are he just really wants to
be..in Santa cruz....what can be done
lololol

I doubt..mariners..will ever trade..lewis
I would not.....idk if he hits..220..or 230
Witch with a spring training..i think..
He will go back..to 250..260..whitch is his normal..

I was only talking in terms of this year's roster being a disaster, not what they could do in the future with those pieces.

As to how they can use them and/or fix the roster next year, I'm not holding my breath that dipoto makes all the right moves. We also don't know if the payroll will expand enough to seriously go after the division next year. If they can't fight toe to toe with Houston next season, then what does any of it matter for anyway?

 

[MarinersBestFan]

So they have Wanker, Santana, Lewis as a broken trio of DH's that no pitcher in the league fears.

And they can't put 3 people in the outfield consistently that belong there. It is just a disaster of a roster.

The 1 single huge positive that could evolve from this dumpster fire of an outfield:

KELENIC ( please hear me out before everyone starts laughing )

My thoughts ...

Has JK been a HUGE disappointment thus far? YES
Does JK have the skill set to both help the Ms down this stretch into the playoffs and is he an improvement over Wanker? YES

If I were Servais I drag JK's sorry no confidence ass into my office and sit him down and tell him: "The club NEEDS you right now. here is YOUR chance to win over the fans and show this league and yourself that you belong."

Stick his ass in LF nightly against a RHP and see how he does.

If he tears it up his confidence shoots the the roof and you have yourself a pretty damn good outfielder on the cheap for a few years moving forward.

If he does just average, you have lost nothing because Wankers numbers ( both offensive and defensive ) are below average.

If he falls on his fails and continues to bat .175 with 30-40 at bats down the stretch ... you know it is time to just trade him or whatever moving forward.

His defensive is far beyond Wanker in all aspects an outfielder is graded on: arm strength - range and all other defensive metrics.

We have nothing to lose jamming him into lineups these last 16 games or so. Hell I would also have him in against lefty pitching, playing him nightly until I was clearly shown he is a total failure at the plate.

He wants nothing more than to prove to everyone he is the real deal, now is the time to give him that shot. Our pathetic depth at OF off the bench is laughable.

PLAY JK ! is my chant

 

[ulmax]

Not every one is julio..but thank goodness....julio..is julio....

But my point is...everyone has struggles
With kilinec..maybe he starts hitting
Know..then that is. What it took..

Kilinec..is still..ahead of the curve..
By a year..

Don't forget..that...

 

[ulmax]

Next..life..what a concept..starring richard sherman
And
The
Leagen of boom..

Special guests...snoop..dog
mc hammer ...ice tea..

This ain't no free...Bee...TREE..lololo

 

[ulmax]

Of coarse not for real....lololo
Unless those guys can think of something....then go for it....
Lolololo

 

[ulmax]

Sense..finding.the kilinec trap..
Why not trade..him where he wants to go
Minnesota.

home..is where the hart..is..
But let me see thoughs..infielders at lower lvl..

 

[ulmax]

Minnesota.

home..is where the hart..is

Arreaz
.yes we know that one..anything else..miss turner..

 

[ulmax]

I have a suspicion sense the devaluation of kilinec came from the midwest..

Arrraz....2B
And
Palacios....ss
Celestino...cf

Kid Kilinec...
Visious Marge..a
.licious

That is..nice trade..from my point..
Of view..cuz..i can't prove..who..is
behind the devalueation..

I still believe Kelenic can be a superstar, he has the talent but he hasn't had much for confidence when it comes to the majors. He needs some success for a bit and he'll be fine. The home run was nice yesterday in his first at bat but I was more excited for the double when he split the outfielders and didn't try to yank it out of the park.

 

[ulmax]

Agreed...i think if they don't trade him
to minnesota..
They don't trade him...at all.....
And watch out...minnesota

Is already
.bragging...they could W inn.
90.
.next.
Year..and I could see where that could be the case.
As well
A good reason
..not to trade him..
At the same time
Arraez..2B.
Is who
The mariners could use..1B/2b/3B..
Fields well..3.8 war..300 bat ave..in the american..

Bats left
.

 

[ulmax]

As the baseball turns...

Batman...

 

[ulmax]

Of coarse a 3 team trade with miami
Could still work for JJ Blyday.
To Minnesota
WHILE MARINERS GET ARRAEZ.
And Miami gets pitching..

Yeah...pie in the sky....
..
loloppp 0 p

I agree that he's not another Ackley, but I think he will sputter at best until traded.

He clearly doesn't want to be here. Doesn't like the team or culture.

I'm sure he knows his best path out of here comes from performing well these last few weeks and gets his trade value back up.

He needs another team. Seattle doesn't work for him.

 

[ulmax]

Minnesota has Buxton and celestino
In cf..not to mention cave..

Wallner..in RF..they only lack..one
Guy..LF

There 3 outfield...they all hit 250..or under...minnesota does not like this
they want HR hitters..cuz they are
minnesota....
Kepler
Karilloff
And
larnach
Probable trade..with at least 3 pitchers..probable trade..as well

set off a fire alarm..for me...

With there A AA stacked andAA..stacked..with infielders...
