M's vs Astros: 6/23 - 6/25

[Msfann]

Mariners screwed on replay then the ump signals safe but meant out. That was an odd one.

 

[Destroydacre]

Haniger clearly safe. Dumbass ump 2 feet away gets it wrong dumbass replay guys in New York get it wrong and then after the review they signal safe and overturn it. WTF is going on? Can we get some umps that aren't complete imbeciles please?

 

[WizardHawk]

That was some weird shit for sure.

 

[kcden]

They need to get rid of replay. They get it wrong over half of the time when they do a replay. He was safe from all four angles that they showed, so of course they called him out... and then the umps fucked up the call, probably because they figured NY would get it correct.

 

[Podunkparte]

So Hinch signaled for a pitching change. They had better hold him to it

Not sure that would be better for us...

 

[WizardHawk]

Why can players that literally throw the ball for a living never seem to be able to find their way to throw to 1st base?

 

[NWinAZ]

Again we can't come up with a big play. We are still just wannabee contenders. Cruz is just killing me right now. Let him sit and DL Valencia for we can have a bench and able bodied players run. Give Peterson a 10 day tryout.

 

[NWinAZ]

The better team won the series. They did it w/o their best pitcher and w/o their hottest pitcher today. Scary to think they could even be better. Could you imagine playing them in a playoff series?

The Astros look really good. They will be tough for any team to beat in the playoffs. The pitcher they started today was garbage and they still beat us.

Still, going into this series 1 win was a realistic expectation and that's what happened. The Astros are the best team in baseball. 2 wins would have been gravy, but the long term season goals didn't end because we went 1-2 the last 3 games.

An off day and a series against the Phillies is the important part. Those are games this team should win. Watch to see that this series doesn't affect the next. If it does, that's a problem, but I don't see that happening.

No need to say kidding, it's just the truth.

Well, I am kidding. I was at Microsoft when

True, but the Mariners don't always do well after an off day at home. I think those back yard barbecues might go on a little too late. Good thing they are playing the Phillies.

Yep, baseball is all about consistency ... You're gonna lose some games, but the teams that end up competing for the playoffs are the ones who stay consistent...
