With 5 Days Left, Do M's Become Sellers?

[NWinAZ]

They have a few days to figure out they have been out of it for a month+ so do they deal Cruz? Leake? Maybin? Any reliever not Diaz? Diaz?

The answer will be no because they need to show the fanbase they are in it to win it...

Should have done that back in July. Sadly time has about run out and a season lost to the FO mismanaging the middle of the season to now.

The only thing the Mariners have done consistently this season is mismanage.

Yes indeed. Friers looks good with the A's, Hamels doing just fine in Chi-town and so on.

I think the FO should hire us to take care of business. We could put together the player staff and hire a REAL manager and we'd have a winning team first season out. If they'd have put us in charge back in April, we wouldn't be looking at a WC spot, we'd be winning our division and who knows how far we would have gone in October. Go Mariners!!

They would never hire me...I am the worst kiss-ass on the planet.

Just what we need!!That's part of the problem-too much of that ball-less Ass Kissing going on.

Make The Mariners Great Again...…………..

 

[ulmax]

progression rate.........the mariners joined the bottom lvl..of the top tyre...then now they are giving it up
they are almost back with tampa..so have they had progress this year

i would say yes.
have they had enough progress...i would say ..no

now comes the real problem of the mariners the whole time

deal with the starting pitching

no more long long contracts...they cause..problems

 

[SeattleCoug]

I get why it would make sense to sell but whenever I ask myself if they are buying or selling, the answer always ends up the same. Neither
So I guess I find myself not even bothering

 

[ulmax]

the royals won the the series three years ago today they are the second worse..team i baseball...three to five years is a long time in baseball

they are selective buyers...cuz of there situation..it would be better to..wait till the off season
or the right deal

they hit a plateau...for now

 

[ulmax]

problem is..it took them all year to admit to a problem or work through a problem..to get the right fix

.but the real prob all along has been an ageing felix

that you can not keep at the top of the order...so it hurts to lose your ace

so a replacment is needed

but also ...........why replace a has been........ with a has been
is not a good solution

you are prob right...........they will prob do nothing...till the off season

 

[ulmax]

and on the heals..of the felix situation...comes the seager..and cruz situations

it does not rain......it poors

and at this point.......trading the future starting pitching...is a bad idea

free agents are a better one...or in..seagers case ..a platoon may be ok
romine is not the solution..solarte of toronto could have been

 

[ulmax]

when i say future starting pitching what i mean is
povse
mcCaughan
ljay newsome
hutchison...who has done well of late..at modesto
chandler
kerr
boches
moyers
gilbert
plassmeyer
razo
roberts
fortunato

there are starting pitchers that i would trade from those lvls........ but not those guys...and those are prob the ones
other teams would want

 

[ulmax]

that said i would not want to trade anyone from this last draft class

 

[ulmax]

guys who are stalling or do not seem to be progressing
wells
McClain
danny garcia........who if he did not think about the bull pen....i would trade...but would not want to if he did
randy bell

that would be all for now but i would consider a few others

 

[Duders]

Here is a bit more of direct message to the organization....LOL

 

[cezero]

look down the list of contenders to make the playoffs right now, and look at their run differentials.

really makes the m's stand out.

even if we had a farm full of arms to trade for offense, dipoto would fuck it up.

and we don't. we have one of the worst farms in mlb.

in short, i don't even care what wheeler dealer dipoto does. there's no hope until the m's get new owners and new staff top to bottom. same as it ever was.

been fun watching oakland.

 

[ulmax]

i could come up with a trade senario.....that prob no one would like..like

miami's..j.t. realmuto and pablo lopez and somehow throw rojas in there as well...for zunino and povse..+++maybe bergman..but that may go nowhere...as well

also that is more of an offseason trade
