They approach every at bat like they are in a homerun derby contest and that fucking trident award for hitting one out is just encouraging them to do it more. That dumbass trident needs to go.

Soccor trophy......I think its really for media..

I was stunned they’ve done as good as they have BUT reality is setting in, this offense is historically bad…
You have to take it into account that the AL West has been god awful. 1st place is amazing but it seems if they don’t win the division they won’t be making the playoffs.

There is no changing it the owners are a group...
Stanton is majority...
But the group..are one .in policy..
It's only .a business to them..
And they don't care about winning..

Only shoving.a freezerbbar.up.any.
Unsuspecting...poor fan..who.
May like baseball....
Owners like them ruin..the sport..
And they have them elsewhere as well.
In MLB..
Yep, and because of the unique location in the PNW the Mariners can get away with this crappy product all these decades and still make good $ … Alaska, Portland, Idaho, Montana, SO many M’s fans in these areas because it’s the nearest baseball team, so lots of people tune in, so filling the stadium isn’t the BIG money maker, it’s people tuning in where the money is generated… If the M’s were on the East coast they’d never get away with this crappy product and make money, they litterally couldn’t do it…So this ownership does this because they can, and they still turn a great profit …

I don't understand why this team can't hit. I never expected them to even be league average as a team, at hitting, but expected a lot more than this.
I just don't understand it.
I.
Just.
Don't.
Get.
It.

How can they suck this bad? An epidemic of suck that has not bypassed one single player. Irony: If Kelenic was still here, he'd be what we had expected and hoped for all along: the team's best hitter.
And Teo and Winker. People say we are crazy fans cause we always say players leave and become better

Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

A true veteran might be able to get through to them where the coaching staff hasn't been able to. We don't need each of them to attempt to win the game in each at bat, we need them to just have solid at bats and make contact. Trust the guys around you to do the same. Put the fucking ball into play and at least make a more productive out than yet another strike out. Move a guy or possibly get lucky and the defense commits an error or you have a bloop. Putting the ball in play produces less wasteful outs.

Cal as a team leader isn't moving them out of this. Julio can't manage himself, more or less be a field leader. This is what they are badly missing.

In less than a couple of hours, we get to see a sweep.

It's the wait for it to happen that makes it seem longer.

The joke's on them. We ditched our cable here years ago; got expensive af! These days, we got Prime and a digital antenna that doesn't pick up every channel it should.

Just as well. I got pretty flustered as it is reading about what went on Tuesday about our lack of...well, anything...
If I had to actually SEE that happen, I'd probably be pissed off to the point of being dizzy.
Can't have that.

Stros won again so it's down to 1 game with a M's loss today.

So Julio had a bloop infield hit yesterday and got bumped up to 5th in the lineup as a reward.

I just got back from our parade and my grandkids doing their races. That was so much more fun than watching the M's. I am in the 2nd inning right now but may skip to live.

Some low standards to say the least.
