Series Thread: M's Roadtrip: June 18th - 26th

[NWinAZ]

I actually watched the 1st inning then just knew it wasn't going to be good for my BP to watch the rest so I turned it off. Sounds like I didn't miss much.

Umps gave it .to.clevlend..
That's.why.crawford.

And servais..thrown out the
Game....

 

[ulmax]

That's too.bad..cuz..
Cleveland could .have.
Won.the ballgame .
On there own..

 

[ulmax]

Without a cheeters..ump.

I only saw clips online of the ejections but damn Scott was pathetic. Didn’t get out there quick enough to save JP, then got ejected being very pathetic. If he rings you up then you might as well lay into the guy. When a manager gets rung his job is to either make another umpire step in or be a clown enough to make the ump laugh.

Cleveland’s, L Allen has a 5.30 era heading into tonight… he averages five strikeouts a game. What are the odds we get only 2-3 runs and at least 10 Ks tonight?

Or throw a hat or a base and at least kick dirt on the umpires shoes or home plate, and at an absolute minimum go 1 inch nose to nose with the cocksucker screaming at the top of your lungs.

And when all else fails, say something under your breath right to his face about his wife

Thing..

Castillo throwing BP. 89 down the middle. Yuck.

 

[NWinAZ]

Like I said early this month, don't look at our total wins or how many games up we ware. Look at what we do vs .500+ teams. Below .500. Castillo back to being a BP guy with nothing on his pitches. That may play vs A's and White Sox but not against Guardians. Miller has regressed and Wo is way over his head.

And if we continue to use Haniger is RF, then we will give up an extra 2 runs per game. It is just sad to see him be a statue out there.

Oh, for the days of Piniella again...

 

[AceKeptic]

We could be looking at the start of another season-crushing collapse at this point. Cleveland's good, yes, but we made it look obvious last night, and while we did manage to generate some offense today, it doesn't make up for Castillo getting shelled early on.

Time will tell, though, depending on our starters as we gear up for the Marlins next. Just don't take them for granted. I remember how we failed against the Nationals all too well.

 

[Destroydacre]

As expected the M's lose the series against the Guardians. Just reaffirms to me that this team is the best of the worst, they can beat up on the weak, but aren't actually a threat to anyone decent this year and still would not shock me in the least if they find a way to miss out on the playoffs.

 

[NWinAZ]

In the 7th they had two on, one out with Moore up vs a righty. My brother asks me why aren't they pinch-hitting Rojas? Moore hits into inning ending DP.

After the game, Angie says on post game that Service said he didn't because it wasn't about this game it was about long term. They want Moore to see these types of situations. Why the fuck do we care about Moore like he is some stud? He is a utility player and nothing more. Stop force feeding him into the lineup. Stop trying to give him a teaching moment at the cost of the team. I hate Servais more and more every day.

Damn, we only struck out 5 times total and Evans only had 2... and we still shit the bed in the game.

You'd think after all the times the Mariners have missed the playoffs by 1-2 games over the years that he'd realize every game matters in the long term.

Long term? So basically he is saying in the playoffs he is going to do the same thing?

It makes zero sense. I could see that if it was a young guy like Lockear, but what does Moore have on Servais? Play for the win!!!

No idea, they have had this love affair with Moore. I remember last year them talking about how the offense was going to get better once Moore got healthy. He is a good utility player who should 1-2 starts a week IMO
