Series Thread: ROAD TRIP: 6/6 - 6/11

[boogiewithstu2007]

On a bright note, the M’s can make it to .500 with a loss !! Ownership is proud, the plan for mediocrity is succeeding !

Maybe Seattle will get clutch hitting in the 8th inning instead of the 9th.

 

[WizardHawk]

5 innings of shutout baseball against a pitcher who over his last two starts gave up 8 runs without registering even one out, then gave up 6 over 3 innings.

Seriously.

This is a FUCKING TERRIBLE BAD PITCHER and he's shutting them out.

Beyond pathetic.

The one thing that remains consistent is lack of clutch hitting. We have a pile of shit players.

 

[WizardHawk]

Yeah, this team is entirely checked out at this point and so am I.

Later...

Post this 4 more times and Seattle will have a 1 run lead.

Foolio’s at bat in the sixth inning with a couple runners on base and two out, shows why he should be batting at the bottom of the line up.

He has absolutely no concept of how to work a count into his favor and layoff pitches out of the strike zone. He just swings at everything the pitcher throws.

Man, it sucks to see how many fans have run out of patience with Thornton.

 

[WizardHawk]

As bad as they are right now I honestly don't think they would win a series against the White Sox nor the Rockies.

They are in my opinion currently the worst baseball team in the country.

Not just Thornton....

The entire team has pissed us off. Raleigh is probably the only valuable asset, even if he doesn't hit much tonight.

But everyone else? A bunch of QUITTERS, and they'll be that way forever on this squad.

Stick that trident in 'em, they're DONE.

 

[AceKeptic]

What more can be said by now? Just finish your humiliation here tomorrow, then get swept the rest of the way out of your season....it's done for you anyway.

 

[cezero]

what an awful team

 

[AceKeptic]

If we did what some teams do and have the Anime Night, I know the perfect one for us:
Fist of the North Star.

Why? Because when other teams come to face us, they'll be telling us the same thing:

 

[WizardHawk]

This is a historically bad hitting team from a franchise known historically for always being a bad hitting team...

 

[AceKeptic]

FUN FACT:

After 100 games as manager, Dan Wilson's record is a perfect 54%

2024: 21-13
2025: 33-33
Total: 54-46 (.540)

fuck you Dipoto

How long before Jerry’s press conference making injury excuses on why they are struggling.

Actually, Young is startting to hit, Polanco is finally coming out of his funk, Julio BA is slowly rising. There are some positives in the offense. But they aren't getting it done with runners in scoring position and pitching might be the worst we have since before the shortened covid season

I’d rather eat nails than support this team. Just like that they are 3GB behind the Astros… might as well be insurmountable at this point. Garbage team.

Who's to say they haven't already?

Poverty franchise.

Poverty franchise.

They aren’t really a poverty franchise though. There is zero reason with close to $150 million payroll Jerry has a team that has had no chance at a WS. He has had cheap young talent for 3 years, he just spends the rest horribly or does stupid stuff like trading Ray for Haniger.

Does anyone really think ownership is going to trust Jerry with more money. He has literally set close to $20 million on fire this season and thus far looks like he made a terrible choice in the huge extension for Julio instead just letting him hit arbitration. Jerry is good at drafting but has been a poor steward of ownerships money
