  1. The lineup is starting to look a little threadbare. I wonder if Schoop is still fighting the shoulder thing. Itll be nice to get Cruz back, hopefully that won't take longer than the 10 day IL.
  2. In addition to Stirnger's post above, I'd add that it was obvious Baldelli gave Berrios every opportunity to get through the 5th. He was at 105 pitches, wasn't sharp, and leaving him out there just to get the W wasn't the right call, IMO. He was lucky to get that far, despite not having allowed a run up to the fifth.
  3. Both Blake and Don Walcott are excellent candidates, IMO. I hope Spycake accepts.
  4. We have an analytics department analyzing every little detail just to find slight advantages, for the purpose of making our team just a little bit better and using a "somewhat static" "small fluctuating" "almost permanent" slotting totally ignores any slight advantage uncovered by metrics. Perhaps the analytics department determined that the best way to approach batting order is to determine who are the most likely hitters to perform well, based on more than the past 20 PAs, and trust that over time that will play out better than trying to predict who will go 2-4 tomorrow based on who went 2-4 today.
  5. That's the biggest change, and most encouraging, IYAM.
  6. The contrast between Gibson pitching ahead in the count often, and pitching behind in the count often, is incredible. I also dont remember a single change up today.
  7. I believe this is a good team that will be, at minimum, in contention all season. And a fun team to watch, to boot.
  8. Prolly just get the out at first, even though the throw beat him. Prolly Arraez should catch that, too.
  9. Mariner fans used to see CJ Cron all the time when he was an Angel. They're probably wondering what special hell they've fallen into where CJ Cron is 8 for 12 in this series with multiple dingers.
  10. That would have also pushed our 3rd order wins up by almost 1.3, and Fangraphs would have loved us.
  11. That should have been a 3 run homer for Schoop, but that idiot Baldelli removed Polanco.
  12. Or maybe he just hasn't had his good stuff for a couple games.
  13. Yes, but it's just one game. What's their record, smart guy? HMMMMM?????
  14. And they haven't hit a HR in like a half hour now, either. Things are pretty bad.
  15. Or maybe he just hasn't had his good stuff for a couple games.
  16. It's 15 to 4, ffs. Every single manager in the history of baseball tries to get Berrios through five.
  17. I remember that team, but it was tough to watch them, what with the dial up internet.
