Just used this and learned that four of the top-20 strikeout seasons (by a hitter) in Mariners history are this year, including the top two.
1: Geno -- 209
2: Teo -- 207
7: Julio -- 170
14: Raleigh -- 154

 

[ulmax]

Geno and Hernandez..
Those.. two..have to go.for..sure..
And mariner are lucky..
They were even in the chase .
But yeah ..
There pitching..is what..has done it..for them..
With.massive..offencive..strikebouts.

And with..
There..pitching out of gas..
Better..to limp..to.the Finnish..line..
And put a new team .together

 

[ulmax]

Santana= Locklear.
Haggerty.= Clase.

The idea..
France for..Garcia..
Gonzales..LHP..for.jimenez..
Gabe Gonzales .for ..indea..

 

[ulmax]

But don't act like..kelenic position..
Is without..
Compatition..he will have plenty.
With..
Marlowe..
Spence packard..
Albert Rodriguez..
Even though..
Clase.will..not be ready..
Most likely..
Will still..will be in spring training..
And Locklear..as well

 

[ulmax]

Julio.needs.to cut..down on strike.outs.
Will be the biggest thing for him..
Group..with.

Jimenez and..Santana and Garcia
Again for.julio..kelenic.

But yeah

 

[ulmax]

Crawford group..
Rojas..indea .caballero .haggerty.
Canzone

 

[ulmax]

If no Murphy..
Deaz.of..rockies..maybe..ok..and risp.
Put canzone.with Santana.
Kelenic.with Crawford..
Just thoughts means nothing.

 

[ulmax]

Nifty. Who are we going to get to replace Teo with if refuses a qualifying offer? I'm betting owners sphincters will tighten up profoundly for anything over $16 mill to replace him, and that will lead Dipshitzo to buy 2 "5 tool" players (by whatever bizarro definition floats around in his head) instead. One of them will probably be Ty France's replacement as well because why upgrade first base beyond that $4 mill threshold, right? Diputzo has made it clear that the only thing he values less than a good defensive (or offensive) 1B is a closer.

And I don't want any of the dumbshits in the FO trading any pitching whatsoever. Anything they wheeler-deal for will make the team worse because they simply don't know what they're doing outside of farming pitching prospects.

Talk about being between a rock and a hard place.

Jerry already basically said they can’t keep Kirby and Gilbert, so might likely it will be one of them if they try to trade for a star player.

IMO they have to do something big cause it seems the Rangers are linked to Snell and Hader. And if that happens then the Mariners have no shot at the division next year.

If you want a good laugh to forget about the M's for a minute, just watch Angel Hernandez at his best???

[cezero]

At the same Phillies game as this?

 

[cezero]

Gilbert with 20 pitches in the first, and hes having control issues. He'll be out by the 4th or 5th even if he doesn't get teed off on before that.

The Orioles and Rays have never finished the regular season as the top two teams in the AL East.The Red Sox and Yankees have never finished as the bottom two teams in the AL East.Both of those things will happen for the first time since the division was established in 1969.

 

[boogiewithstu2007]

M’s just can’t hit, they just can’t get it done … It’s almost a wrap

 

[WizardHawk]

If this team broke spring training with easy to do upgrades over la stella, wong, and pollock, they win the division easily.

Will they learn? Or do they come up a few games short yet again next year?
