Series Thread: M's Homestand: July 19th - 24th

[cezero]

One thing about this season i like for the region is that newer fans (most of Mariners social media) got a taste of what it feels like to hold a significant division lead.

That's the first time for anybody who wasn't a fan in the early 2000s or earlier, right?

Our fanbase needs to impose higher expectations on ownership because I feel like we deserve that more than once every couple decades. Maybe this will accelerate that.

No new names...shocking.

Just saw Jessie Wanker DH’ing for the Nats

His .260 avg would make him our second best hitter inserted into tonight’s lineup ( behind Julio )

That’s how pathetic our anemic offense is right right now

 

[MarinersBestFan]

Well, I guess as a team they’re really good at something

That has to just make for an absolutely miserable experience at the ballpark watching that many Mariners walk up to the dish to just turn around and walk back to the dugout a handful of pitches later with the bat in their hands

The opposing team probably doesn’t really like it that much because their pitchers have to work so hard throwing so many pitches to get outs. We never put balls in play for put outs at a base.

Just getting ready for the second half

Why would they pitch Woo over Gilbert?

Fucking idiot manager

Be nice if Luis Castillo earned his paycheck tonight.

Be nice if Luis Castillo earned his paycheck tonight.

I think he’s had a couple OK starts in a row, so without a doubt he’s due for a clunker

He’s one arm that Skip will leave in giving him a chance to work out of a jam, that often ends up costing us any chance of coming back to win a game

Ok you miserable fucks, surprise me and take 2 out of 3. I dare you. Do it without your ace since your manager is an idiot. Go on. Do it.

 

[WizardHawk]

lol
Gave up a free run on another error.
Starting up where they left off....

 

[NWinAZ]

3 innings, 2 errors. We came to play boys!!!

 

[NWinAZ]

Since we had a 10 game lead, we have gone 8-15 (worst in the division) and Astros have gone 17-6.

 

[NWinAZ]

3-0 and counting

 

[WizardHawk]

Well, this one ended quickly.

 

[NWinAZ]

We DFA'd Baumann. Great stuff, no control.

 

[NWinAZ]

Well, this one ended quickly.

The game or the season?

 

[WizardHawk]

The game or the season?

 

[WizardHawk]

Julio walked. How odd.

 

[NWinAZ]

Bases loaded, so what.
