Any who..

2 players stuck out like a sore thumb..

Rick Ankiel 14 AB.. 12 K

Brett Wallace 21 AB.. 17 K

It's like he's forgotten that he's no longer a pitcher.

[Macattk15]

The only thing that makes me feel better about this season is that the Angels are possibly going to be 2-6 ... and Weaver is out for 4-6 weeks.

And an Astros win and their loss will put that at the bottom of the AL West.

 

[Enron]

Wow.

Jeff Sullivan ‏@based_ball 6m
Marlins outdrew the Mariners

CONTRACT SEATTLE

 

[Sanjuro]

Our sellout streak is over...

...still drew well over 30k.

 

[snack]

Jays came back from a deficit today? Did that really happen?!

 

[The Awesomest]

Mariners set new lowest attendance record, second night in a row! Yeah!!!

 

[Macattk15]

Who honestly wants to watch the M's vs. Astros?

 

[HarryDemeanor]

I can't decide I I like Kershaw's start or Crawford's start better.

I like Crawford's better due to him coming back from injury. Kershaw is something I expect but it's still really good.

 

[Sharp]

Who honestly wants to watch the M's vs. Astros?

Yeah, I feel like the Astros are going to make for a lot of "lowest attendance" road games this year. You can see minor league baseball for a lot cheaper.

 

[lastflowers]

I take offense to this. They've got infinitely better jerseys now!

 

[Gannd]

The A's need to get a couple more runs on the board. Too close for comfort.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Bases loaded! Let's do some damage!

 

[3N16MA]

Seeing Montero struggle makes me feel better about the trade.

 

[Macattk15]

Seeing Montero struggle makes me feel better about the trade.

I'd much rather have Pineda still .... blown out shoulder and all. Montero has basically been worth nothing.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

......

Or not.

 

[3N16MA]

I'd much rather have Pineda still .... blown out shoulder and all. Montero has basically been worth nothing.

All Pineda has given us Yankee fans is a busted shoulder and a DUI.

-0.2 career WAR!

 

[Macattk15]

Statistically more than Montero playing for a full season!

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Donnie is leaving Bills in? Is he crazy?

 

[3N16MA]

Just noticed that Harper has not drawn a walk in 8 games. Kind of quirky thing.

EDIT: Neither has Werth.

Send him back to Cuba!

 

[Macattk15]

Hahhaha. Angels have walked in 2 runs.

Thanks for making me feel better Angels.

Hey ... M's have scored 3 runs now ... hurray.

 

[3N16MA]

Looks like former Red Sox players like playing for the A's.

 

[Corran Horn]

Bit late but F work and early afternoon games

 

[Gannd]

Looks like former Red Sox players like playing for the A's.

everyone likes playing for Oakland of they are worth having play.

 

[lazybones18]

About the attendance at Safeco tonight

we call that a busy night at the coliseum.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

SELLERS YOU FUCKING IDIOT.

 

[Macattk15]

Well fucking shit. I thought they might come back. Then that shit happens.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

C'mon Kenley. Get a double play right here to end the inning.

SCHUMAKER WITH THE DIVING CATCH! WOOOOOO!

 

[BigJonsson]

Jays come back today may turn out to be a key turning point early in the season

 

[cashman]

-0.2 career WAR!

So the Yankees did end up winning that trade.

Haha, Jays traded him for Gose fleeeeeeced

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Kemp thought that was gone. Dude is desperate for a HR.

 

[otapnam]

I'll b there tailgating on Fri bro

 

[Macattk15]

What the fuck.

Even Carter Capps getting wrecked.

 

[lastflowers]

CHOO CHOO. Birthday redeemed.

 

[Etheus]

I wouldn't mind if Jack Z and Wedge packed their bags. I know it's early but this got old two years ago.

 

[Macattk15]

There is probably a 0% chance Jack Z makes it through this season.

Wedge ... while he makes some weird roster construction ... he can only work with what he has.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

I wouldn't mind if Jack Z and Wedge packed their bags. I know it's early but this got old two years ago.

Be patient. Your minors are loaded. Jack Z wasn't brought in to make the MLB team immediately better. He was brought in to do what he did in Milwaukee: totally rebuild the farm.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Damn. That's twice tonight with the bases loaded and getting nothing out of it.

 

[Etheus]

Be patient. Your minors are loaded. Jack Z wasn't brought in to make the MLB team immediately better. He was brought in to do what he did in Milwaukee: totally rebuild the farm.

Our young building blocks, Ackley, looking like a bust, Smoak is a bust, Montero looking like a bust. Lets give Wells away for nothing. Lets get rid of Vargas and Fister. Dingers and big TVs though!

Jason Vargas is no one special. We did get Kendrys for him and Kendrys has actually produced a bit so far.

Fister though

I agree on all the young guys .... they all fucking suck.

Our minor leagues are loaded ... sure ... with fucking prospects who will bust out like Ackley. Well cept Zunino ... I already have boners due to him.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

All you need is an out Brandon. One out. You can't get one out? Terrible closer. Don't know why Donnie made you one. You suck.

Ned you're an idiot for overpaying for him.

 

[bluemax]

I remember when Mariners-GAF was in good spirits during spring training.

No. I didn't believe it.

Ackley has been hitting the ball better this year, but he's been incredibly unlucky. Still it would be nice if things picked up.

[cashman]

This is like the one time last year when the Mariners magically exploded for like 30 runs combined in two days vs the Rangers.

I STILL believe in the smoakamotive

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Haha, Jays traded him for Gose fleeeeeeced

Holliday > Gose

 

[Opiate]

Have there been any bets yet on whether the Angels or Dodgers will end the season with a better record?

They both seem like strong candidates to underperform their payrolls/roster expectations.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

HOLY SHIT. YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. WHAT THE FUCK!?
