[ulmax]

3rd.and..4th..hitters....

1b and 3b..and dh...

what mariners .owners won't spend money..on..
and know....they.wont.have.to...

mariners..have pitchers to..trade...
if they don't ..get .a 1b.and 3b..dh.

then.sabatage....owners continue..

ulmax...over...and..out..my friends.

 

[AceKeptic]

Sub-.500, here we come!

*sigh* I'd much rather these guys were sold to someone who's actually willing to compete, but let's be honest...

They're practically BEGGING to contract from the league...Or at least get relocated to OKC like one of our other old teams.

 

[ulmax]

lololol..
yeah...
the owners are .consistent .in..
haveing..losing.teams..

anything..lately..saying .they have.changed.there..buisness..
model...
no...it's same ole....take the money.and..
run ...
leaving..the mariners berift...of..talent.

most..notably...at the power..spots..
and in this..
years..version..the high leverage.bull..
pen spots.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

I'll go with..some..bats..instead ..
1b..
witch they..
have to have.....
and..a .2b..polanco .could...
but.im not sure. .if they want him to..

Garcia ..of nat bats..is the other .2b..who could.do

so..ss..will.come up soon.
enough..
maybe this offseason..
but..
I'm not really...prepared..
to...offload..crawford.just..
yet..

They probably won't off load JP but you need to realize he reached his peak for one season and probably here on out it'll be mediocre hitting cause that's who he is.

 

[NWinAZ]

If I ever get on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, Jerry DIPoto will be my call a friend choice. He knows everything.

 

[ulmax]

lolol..
it's not that ..he knows everything..
it what.
he can do..with.no...money...
is only..re- invest..in the minor league.
guys..

here is a point...the only..new guys..from.
2 years ago..are..arosarena..and..
and..Robles .

polanco and haniger came..in Robbie.
Ray .money ..dump..
garver a free .agent..that has not worked.

all..after..owners told .Jedi..there.is no.money..
he found some..anyway..

although .it ..did .not work.
it was an. .
up..hill..clime..

basicly..he was.behind..
the 8..ball..from the.
beginning..

 

[ulmax]

know ..the diff is....

they will..have..pitchers.to.trade..

whitch.could.get them..

av3b..that they have needed.sense.seager..

and with .raley .and Locklear ..
a right handed .
1b/dh .

they did not have..extra pitcher.before .
but they should.be ..ready..
with..
Garcia.
logan.evans.m
Mercedes .
coming out of spring..

so..2 pitchers.trade..
or..
don't go..to..the dance..I guess .

 

[ulmax]

anyway .it's..power.bats..they.need..

1b/dh .3b...

unfortunately..the mariners high.leverage..bull.pen.guys

had.injuries.mthis..year..i don't blame.
that on anyone.

and unfortunately...is somewhat..
unavoidable..
is what it.is basicly..

 

[ulmax]

in desperation...they brought .
troy.taylor..
who has been..ok.
nice addition...
but not enough..

monuz..the only guy left..standing.
has been awesome..

 

[ulmax]

if you ...can ..get.your ass...kiked..
and
make it..to.school..
the next..day....ok..then...

fire..Jedi...
and.
whatever...

but I think..Jedi..just.goes..tampa.style..
basicly.

cuz he has to....with no..money.

 

[ulmax]

sorry about that..
the only new players..

are..

raley..
Rojas..
canzone.. at Tacoma .should be up.for September.

arosarena..
Robles .
Leo.rivas..

power.bats...not really..

I’ve followed this team for 3+ decades… this season is undoubtedly my most hated team of them all. At least in the years they sucked while the kingdom was still around, they tried.

This piece of crap dipoto had put together is an insult to a piece of crap.

 

[WizardHawk]

No way. M's make a ton of profits for the ownership team. The league doesn't care if the M's ever win and why would you relocate when you have all the suckers you need right here to keep going to the ballpark no matter how bad they are? It's a cash cow that requires no effort to maintain.

The fans are part of the problem.

 

[wazzu31]

So is the objective now to try to get a super high draft pick? It’s really the only thing Jerry is good at

 

[PolarVortex]

Logan gives up 4 runs all with 2 outs in the 3rd.

Yep. That's how this season is going to end.

In Logan's last 5-6 starts he's reminded me of Robbie Ray in 2022 when the one big inning was his undoing. There is too much pressure on the starting pitching. None of them are going to sign extensions to stay here. I wouldn't if I was one of them.

 

[PolarVortex]

Randy Aarozarena sucks. I don't know what he was like with the Rays but they got rid of him at just the right time. Seattle got their asses handed to them with that trade so far.

Disagree. He's the best run producer on the team. His runs scored/games played ratio is easily the highest on the team. His OBP is easily the highest on the team. He's been on base via hit, walk, or HBP 52 times in 29 games. He's done more than anyone, including Robles, in the time he has been here. His WAR/games played ratio is higher than everyone on the team except Raleigh.

LOL I was thinking that too the other day.

Leo Rivas..hitting .262...seems..
better. .
they have not sent. him down .

Well if the home/road splits keep up for these guys then I think there is a solid chance they would want extensions. The Ray comp is a good one for basically the entire staff. When they are on, they are on but when off it can get ugly. With this staff this offseason is going to be very interesting cause realistically all of could end up being traded or Kirby, Gilbert, Miller and Woo could get an extension.
