Not the finish we wanted and its a shame that all we had to do was not lose the series against a 3rd place team but it seems like the Angels were motivated to spoil our playoff shot. With that being said there are so many good things to expect next season and this young team is growing this reminds me of the Seahawks when they were young and motivated to win.

As for Kyle Seager I think its better for him to go. He gave us a lot of good years through the bad times and I think we owe it to him to let him go and play for a team that is trying to win. Maybe he will team up with his brother on the Dodgers or even play on the Yankees. Kyle has a few good years in him let him see his options.

On another note I think its funny how times have changed I remember when we sucked and everybody was hoping we could trade him for a lower level prospect or even release him. Now everyone wants to pay him 20 mil to stay on the team.

This weekend definitely didnt go the way we wanted. Being at the game yesterday, I can if there is one positive you take from this weekend is the crowd. The two games on tv and yesterday, I can tell the they brought it. Even after moments where things could have died. I hope management sees what can happen when you give them something to cheer about. It's time to take the next step now.

Servais has overall done a great job this year, I think he has grown at times. I didnt love playing Moore over Fraley every game despite the LH starters. But at the same time I think you pretty much squeezed everything you could have reasonably asked out of this group. Dipoto has arguably one of the better jobs out there when you consider a deep farm system and minimal payroll commitments. This winter needs to be a huge huge step

 

[SeattleCoug]

Guess they really didn't want it bad enough

idk the team I watched this weekend I feel pretty opposite of this.

I saw a team that pressed too hard (specifically Friday night) and likely weren't ready for this moment.

I would never accuse this group of not trying hard enough or not caring enough.

The players specifically played their guts out this year, there's just only so far a duct tape and bubble gum roster can take you. That's what needs to change.

One down, 2 more to go.

Longtime umpire Joe West to retire after 2021 postseason

It's been rumored that West would call it a career ever since he broke the record for most games umpired back in May.

Who else? Pretty sure Angel Hernadez is the other one. CB Bucknor is another?

That is how bad they are when you don't have to mention them by name yet another baseball guy guesses it right away.

im thinking Robbie Ray 38..and how they are going to afford that...which..the dodgers would ...just...do it..

but the cheap guys way...would be this......double kikuchi and paxton....now you would see ....paxton or kikuchi...in the rotation..the other would be in the bull pen....pax has an injury history...kikuchi has ..a burn out prob...could work..for every one....

yep..that is all i have today...other than cut ties...with one or the other..or both..i dont think that will happen.........

cut ties with both. Time to act like a real major league organization and stop going after comeback stories because they are cheap.

I’d be surprise if the MLB don’t do anything about Angel Hernandez… he needs to be canned. He made one of the worst call during the Indians/Royals game this year.

 

[ulmax]

	Hyun Jin Ryu 99	R/L	6' 3"	255	03/25/1987

Logan Gilbert 36 Tyler Anderson 31 with kuchi..out of the bull pen...for 13 mil...cuz mariners decline his 14 mil...they could trade...but who..would be a taker....

 

[Tapey]

cut ties with both. Time to act like a real major league organization and stop going after comeback stories because they are cheap.

Yea these types of moves have worked for the Mariners like once? Flexen is the only one that comes to mind.

yeah...i dont know if they can dodge the 13 mil player option....but..yeah..agreed

 

[Tapey]

yeah...i dont know if they can dodge the 13 mil player option....but..yeah..agreed

Yea Kikuchi should ride the back of the bullpen next year and sparingly used

 

[ulmax]

I like Manny Pina as a FA catcher pickup. He's year older than Ramos and had 1.5 WAR in 208 PA. Pina's framing, according to Fangraphs for the last 3 seasons, was 6.3, 1.4, and 4.0. respectively. His DRS was 7, 4, and 7. respectively.

Ramos framing was -7.6, -0.7, and -3.5, respectively. His DRS was -11, -1, and -9, respectively.
