    let me keep my theories why the Mariners are ruining the best starting rotation in team history. I'm pointing at the PR department. Happy family fun night with the best ERA in the majors ??
    .... boooooo

    They're not superstars. But at least their batting average isn't below .180. So what if they're mean, they at least make contact

    My last mariners game was pre pandemic. They have given me zero reasons to spend money on them and I will gladly keep not doing it

    The last time Winker made contact with anything it was Anthony Rendon.

    it was a mega dust up. He slugged a few Angels in that mosh pit. Someone creamed Coach Servais... it was probably Winker

    "mm,yaa.. this one's not on Scott Servais."

    Mike Blowers has been programmed to praise the skipper at all costs.

    why not just say, "good pinch hitting by the Dodgers" ??

    oh wait, it's Blowers. He was too busy talking smack about the Dodgers decision to bring in Heyward to face Munoz.

    Blowers - "mm, yaa, the Dodgers are running out of options, now they have to dig deep into their lineup"

    Justin Heyward walks to the dish, game tied 2 men on. ROOT posts his subpar batting stats. Heyward proceeds to wedge a 99mph heater over the right field wall.

    I'm putting that loss on Mike Blowers. His grumpy broadcasting mojo is why the Mariners are in a funk.

    Teoscar Hernadez finally got his "take that Dipoto" knock, steal, & scored.

    Gilbert keeps spiking his screwgies. Dodgers keep stealing bases. Small ball, rough luck, and timely LA hitting is hurting the M's tonight.

    Servais called in Thornton to relieve Gilbert with the bases loaded. First pitch was a meatball right down the pipe.... Muncy base clearing double

    This year is over. Historically bad offense. I don't even know what they will do to regroup next year.

    Dodgers radio said the Devil Rays got into a dugout scuffle. Someone clearly stole the wrong bag of bubble gum.

    I tried watching AJ Peirzynski discussing the bad month for the Mariners. His rando podcasting buddy was soo annoying, I had to shut it off. Blah blah blah blah generic Front Office excuses that were entirely wrong.

    hire Ichiro & Griffey as batting coach. Get Mike Cameron in an advisory role. Quit hiring crappy former Mariners to coach the team. Bring in the LEGENDS

    a podcast called Mariners Mojo briefly discussed absolutely nothing about why Scott Servais should get fired, or who the bad hitters in Seattle are.

    Then they sleazed their way into throwing "bad pitcher" George Kirby under the bus. Stop it, just stop. Reality is a tough pill to swallow for armchair GM's on YouTube.
