What is up with Felix lately?

He had the flu in New York, but should have felt better today. Brad miller never helps him out, and forced a lot of wasted pitches including a run.

why the hell is Ackley not bunting Seager to 3rd?

 

[Mariners_44]

Furbush is warming up! We better score here so the Rodney Rollercoaster can override him or we are screwed!

 

[Mariners_44]

There we go Romero!

 

[Itsmytime]

There we go Smoak, just put the bat on the ball and good things happen!

 

[Banned 10x]

Hold onto your hats, it's going to be Rodney time soon.

I would like a couple more insurance runs....

 

[Mariners_44]

Rollercoaster Rodney, let's do this!!

[Mariners_44]

6-2

 

[Mariners_44]

Booooooooom! Let's get that top spot tonight, one to go! Gritty win, go M's!

 

[mcnabb7542]

There playin some good ball right now, lets hope they score a shit load of runs since numb nuts is on the mound for game two...

Yes. In Houston in Extra Innings

Undefeated with almonte out of the lineup. Obviously won't continue long but pretty nuts

Brad Miller has been just atrocious in the field today.

coupled with a sub .200 BA....Not a good look

He's becoming a crutch. When Brendan Ryan becomes someone I wish we had, there's a problem. Miller down, franklin up.

 

[cezero]

franklin would be as bad or worse at SS.

there's a big hole right in the middle of the infield, and an abbott and costello act in the outfield.

Well, we may have had to split the double-header today, ergo missing the chance to sweep the four-game series, but you know what? Three out of four is still good, and more than what we could have anticipated over the past decade. A step in the right direction regardless of what happened in Game 4.

Keep doing this, guys, and try not to fall back into the way you were.

All in all some good baseball was played lately and it has this team over .500. I'm happy and hoping to see a few more weaknesses start to work out. Mostly pitchers getting healthy, hopefully Brad Miller stops being Yunieski Bettancourt, and not playing the A's for a while!
