Series Thread: Red Sox At Mariners; May 14th-17th

[Mariners_44]

How about Happ tonight!?! Just trying to be positive here.............meh, this team is rough to watch. Starting pitching has seemed to turn a corner, but the bats and pen are a ways away.

 

[Itsmytime]

At least they tied it....

 

[Tapey]

I think the batters are told to just go up there and swing at everything no matter were it is.

 

[Itsmytime]

WTF is your deal Cano... Swinging at everything and things you do hit lately you pound into the ground

 

[Tapey]

Thank god for Cruz.

 

[Itsmytime]

Thank god for Cruz.

I know, right?

 

[SeattleCoug]

Why Boston let Cruz beat them I have no idea. With the way our offense is that seems incredibly dumb. But thanks I guess

Nice W.

M's are 5-2 over last 7 games... Quality starts from our pitching staff has been one of the big reasons for our success...

Quality pitching with shaky inconsistent batting. I think I've seen this movie before, only in this sequel they added terrible defense.

Looks like another roller coaster summer in M's-ville.

My big questions are how long until they deal with Weeks. Is there a point where Ackley finally gets so bad they do something with him. Is there anyone in the organization that can teach Zunino how to hit an off speed pitch. Is there a point this season where someone else emerges as a closer that passes Rodney up.

I think they still reach .500 at some point and might go a bit past it, but they just have too many issues and not enough options to fix them to reach anything more than they did last year.

FELIX DAY!

Ackley's best AB in 2 weeks - A WALK...

 

[cezero]

Porcello's been a little shaky this year, so he must be relieved to be facing this lineup, despite the fact that several of them have had success against him in the past.

 

[Anointed One]

Wow... Felix has given up 5 HR's in his last 3 games, including tonights...

I think every SP feels that way... Kelly and Buckholtz both had era's over 5.75 coming into this weekend series... I think Kelly was at 6.35... They both shut down the M's lineup...

 

[Itsmytime]

So this team's entire offensive output is coming from Miller...

 

[Itsmytime]

Not a good day for Felix

 

[Anointed One]

No faith that we can score two runs in 3 innings... game over...
