What a cluster this game has been. One play is totally outstanding and then the next play is a dumb error. This team is just amazingly weird.

Is it football season?

Finally this shitfest shitshow is over

I can honestly say that I have not seen one complete game this year. On average I watch maybe 2 innings per game. Not even sure why I watch that much. It has gone so far south that it is hard for me to even complain about things. Remind me again how you rebuild in baseball with a GM who hasn't draft well, hasn't developed well, and hasn't signed free agents of worth or traded for players of worth? It makes me long for the M's of the 80's.

Yup.

And I watch about 1 inning.

No interest.

Was watching NBA and the Seahawks start soon.....

I usually have the game on in the background but busy myself with other things more interesting. I know some of you think Dipoto is the answer, but I just don't see that at all. I've said before that looking at his choice for a manager, alone, shows his lack of baseball intelligence to garner a winning post season team. I guess I got spoiled with Lou and any GM will have a tough row to hoe to even come close IMO.

Happy Father's Day to all us Fathers out there in Mariner's land

Whenever the game is on when I'm at work I leave it on as background noise but don't really pay all that much attention. Right now I just have the game on in my living room as I post here and read various articles on the internet. I probably spend more time looking at the box score than I do the actual game.

I've developed a weird interest in keeping track of how many runs they're on pace to allow and how many errors they're on pace to commit.

Mallex Smith with a weird power surge this year. He has 5 home runs in 54 games played this year. He had 7 career home runs in his first 294 games before coming to the Mariners.

I'm curious what kind of numbers have you put together so far for allowed runs and errors?
Like what are they on pace for this icky season?

This is me exactly on both items.

It is nice and all but generally a team would prefer their OF to have a better fielding percentage than OBPS.

I'm the exact same way. Mainly because two innings is all i can take. I dont even mean to be fair weather, its just not a pleasant viewing experience.

Well you have to take into cons- ah fuck, you got me there.

Last time I checked they're on pace for 175 errors.

Making history!

They're on pace to allow 991 runs, 855 earned runs. So they're on pace for 136 unearned runs. They've already allowed 63 unearned runs this year which is almost an unearned run per game. *

Pretty impressive.

*If my math is correct

Thank you for those stats. They are actually better than I had thought-still piss poor, but not as bad as I had figured. Sounds like with that info that the M's will roughly average giving around 6 runs per game. That being true, for them to win games, they would need to average more than 6 runs a game and that's not gonna happen. The offense is their strength, but that strength can also be considered their weakness when compared to other teams.

So we have guys out with:

1- Lacerated Spleen
2- Ruptured Testicle
3- Spinal Stenosis

Three injuries you never heard if you followed baseball in the 70's or 80's.

LOL--but don't forget- This is the Mariners organization- they are tops at weird shit in baseball.
