But he has faced it head on. I like the guy. I hope they extend him in the offseason.

 

[AceKeptic]

Castillo, Ray, and Kirby for the three starters this series.
Two out of three? Possible, but neither of the two is coming from Ray.

One can only hope our pitching doesn't choke like against Texas. That should not have been...

Really need to see a lot more of that from Winker the last 2 months of the season.

It was a complete team failure. Defense was bad in both games. Acta waving in the slowest guy on the team who ended up out by a mile.

Hopefully they left all that behind in Texas.

Well, guess not....

CALL THE FUCKING BALL

Instead of an out, they stupidly gift a HR.

Suddenly this team can't play defense.

That was such a Mariners play. I really hate this team sometimes (a lot).

 

[NWinAZ]

I read one reason we picked up the catcher at the deadline was because he caught Castillo in Cincinnati. Then when he pitches, we don't use him. Huh?

they statistically have the best D, but have been terrible the last 3 games. They won't make the playoffs with so many blunders.

If they are going to keep sputtering at the plate, they have to pitch and play defense very well. They were shaky in both the last 2 games.

 

[NWinAZ]

The one big question is...how many weeks will Haniger be out after this bump?

 

[Msfann]

That should not have been overturned. Lame ass replay system

 

[WizardHawk]

That was a HR. How fucking cursed is this team right now? That was BS

"day to day" But it's ok, Haniger will come back when he decides to.

Also as an aside, I 100% would have scored that E9. What a bullshit "home run."

That is actually a great point. It is always ruled a homer if off the glove or head (Canseco), but if off the glove and in play it is an error. Never thought too much about it til you brought that up.

 

[Destroydacre]

Brian O'Nora is such a fucking pussy. Stand by your call, don't change it to the wrong one and screw a team over because fucking Phil Nevin yells at you. What a coward.

 

[Destroydacre]

Fuck, the Mariners need to win this game. Should be 3-0.

 

[Msfann]

I still don't understand how they overturned Julio's homerun, if they had shown ANY shot that showed it was foul I would have been fine with it but I just didn't see it. Am I wrong? Don't you need proof to overturn things?

It was originally called fair, but Brian "giant pussy" O'Nora got scared because big ol mean Phil Nevin yelled at him and wrongly changed the call to foul ball, so then they had to have indisputable proof to call it fair.

Which there was, but apparently baseball still wants to continually screw over one of the upcoming faces of MLB, because that's how you get viewership and win over fans.

Ok I'm done ranting, but this shit tonight pissed me off big time.

 

[WizardHawk]

It's not hard. If you can't see white in front of foul pole as it goes by it's a HR. And there was no white on the replay. Just keep on screwing Jrod.
