I fully expect us to pitch to him in his first at bat tonight, and after he hits a homer I expect we will continue to pitch to him. Why? Because Servais, even though I’m a big fan, mishandles Trout just like a majority of the pitching staff. Nicasio keeps getting lit up late in games so who do we keep going to in high leverage situations.....Nicasio. The wheels have fallen off in the 5th/6th inning during a Felix start what should we do? Keep him out there to erase that one run lead rather than saving him with a fresh arm. This is what we do, and Trout will be no different the entire series. Get ready for at least 3 home runs and that continued baffled look on Scotty’s face as if he’s shocked it keeps happening.

"..by Jeff Sullivan"...a quote..lol
July 3, 2018
"he Mariners have won all the games that they’ve won, and they deserve credit for winning them. It wasn’t random chance that made them play better in the clutch. That was all human players, doing human things against human opponents. There’s a difference between randomness and unsustainability. The other wild-card teams don’t deserve to be closer to the Mariners than they are. That’s not how statistics work.

The Mariners, so far, have won like a juggernaut. They’re not considered to be on the same level with the other juggernauts, for good and convincing reasons. Those teams have done things the Mariners haven’t matched. Yet the Mariners have done enough to put themselves in excellent playoff position, and you could argue this is the ideal kind of team for a fan base — a team on a 103-win pace that you get to call an underdog. No one should expect the Mariners to keep playing like they’ve played. At a certain point, it doesn’t matter. In the hunt for the playoff spot the Mariners occupy, clutch play has made all the difference."
