    Just win out the rest of the season. I dont like Miller's chances tonight. Houston's vets will probably shell him. This is playoff baseball and I would rather see Logan up there than Woo or Miller.

    Really wish we could go with a 3 man starting rotation. No trust in miller or woo.

    Servais blows it again, and just leaves Miller in there. Getting absolutely shelled and he does nothing. Should have never even pitched this game.

    Why are 2 rookies expected to start and pitch 6 strong innings, if the goal is supposed to be a division winning/playoff Mariners squad? Does Cronin have input on the Mariners roster? Save a ton of money, tell fans we're building a championship around Julio.

    To be fair, they experienced a lot of injuries to their pitching staff and were forced to rely on these guys.

    And with that considered, they have done a pretty good job as rookies.

    absolutely ! Miller & Woo can bring it.

    Robbie Ray injured first game of season. Marco was clearly struggling with injuries very early too. The rookies have good stuff. But relying in them so heavily and deep into a "contending" season... that's a lot to ask. Could have been prevented. If the Mariners got off their ass, opened their wallet, land some veteran pitchers who aren't pitching from behind in counts, not leaving hangers in the middle of the plate. The Rookies throw hard, but they haven't learned to pitch big league ball.

    the "two-timeline" strategy killed the Blazers. Which one are the Mariners running? Rebuild, Build, it's hard to distinguish when rookies are everywhere.

    Big lead against Texas.


    Houston won 2-1. Arizona had a dude on 2nd. Sucks man. We need to win both games now. Houston HAS to lose one. If they sweep they are in. Fuck.

    Yep.

    This fucking sucks. The last few years it seems we have gone to 162 needing other things to happen and they haven't

    in the Mariners offseason, I said they should hire a better hitter then Adam Frazier at 2nd base. Now Adam Frazier is a better hitter then the 4 guys Seattle tried out at 2nd base. Blame Whyachi for giving bad advice.

    uh oh. not looking promising. Simply have to have some hits. There aren't any exceptions. One of Luis' worst outings ever I would surmise.
