Too bad Wilhelmsen and Tolleson shit the bed and Kela is hurt, or we might have the bullpen we thought we had
Just imagine how nice it will be if Tolleson can go down to AAA and get his change up fixed and comes back up here in a few weeks and then we get Kela back.

Would be nice to get Diekman, Dyson, Barnette and Bush some reinforcements at some point, to cut down their workloads

Kela will be a huge boost when he's back. Maybe this off time for Tolleson will get his head right so we can trust him in the 6th inning...doubt it though.

Ronald Guzman had an OPS of .922 before tonight's game and he hit 2 HR tonight. That gives him 7 HR on the year.

I cant remember if we are looking at an end of July or early August timetable for Keone to be back?

Twinkies are leading a close one. Would be so damn nice to gain a game in the standings. I honestly couldn't tell you when was the last time we did.

Weirdest ending I've seen to a game in a really long time... talk about just pissing the game away on the basepaths with unreal stupidity. I don't think even Kinsler and Elvis have ever gone that brain dead before. I'd be pissed if I were a Mariners fan.

Our triple play vs the White Sox was pretty terrible, so I cannot judge yet...Need the replay to show up.

True, but I'd rate this one worse based on the fact that it was the bottom of the 9th with two men on and only one out. You've got to try extra hard to lose focus in that situation. Plus, they got both remaining outs without the batter even being involved. At least on ours we hit into a triple play. Both Seager and O'Malley just seemed to forget what the hell they were doing for a second there (especially Seager). Hahaha!!

Not every day you see a 2-4-5-6 double play to end the game in the bottom of the 9th with the batter still at a 1-2 count just left standing at home plate.

O'Malley should be sent down or stoned...What Seager did was fucking stupid, but you cannot try to help him out after he makes the mistake. You are too premium of a run there at third to make an out...Seager started the stupid, but O'Malley doing that was beyond stupid.

To make this look even worse.... O'Malley was inserted into the game as a pinch runner.

Our base running mishaps have been cut way down since DDJ was sent down. He is an idiot on the base paths. And I know we have put a PR in and had them picked off 1st. But glad the Mariners blew that one like they did.
