SWEEP!

Man that was close for Rodney. Had me biting my damn nails

 

[a55a5in11]

Rodney
Most nerve racking roller coaster in the world

 

[finnns2003]

at the starting pitching in this series. Everyone, from Felix to Kuma pitched like they had a flu

At least that's what I'm reading is wrong with everyone. Cano leaving early for that too? Good sweep, we needed it.

 

[Sinner]

Welp... win some, lose some.

 

[finnns2003]

That's not supposed to happen. Mikolas entered the game with a 7+ ERA, and gave up only 2 hits through 5. These guys have to start challenging awful pitchers. The Rangers have the worst rotation in baseball so you have to pour on the runs. Pitching did its job so it must be the curse of the jet lag

The whole team's got the bug.

Only way to explain it. They were all sick

except, Elias, The Bullpen & LoMo

I read that even Saunders was pulled from his rehab assignment because of the bug.

Wasn't Lomo the one who passed bug to Cano??? 

@Softykjr 

Mariners just announced a multi year extension for Jack Zduriencik.

Yeah it was LoMo

, just pointing out he was one of the few to have a good game yesterday.

Asked about his relationship with Jack Z, McClendon got a sly grin and said: "We're probably as dysfunctional as dysfunctional can get."

Jack Z was fighting for the job and it paid off, what a difference one year makes

Did Root seriously just put up that Sucre has a 2-game hit streak? Wow.

Beltre. Just filthy. :x

 

[651akathepaul]

I love when Buhner is in the booth. He rattles off so much baseball jargon. It's great. Stale *** Blowers and Sims.

I saw that and was like what?

 

[651akathepaul]

 

[a55a5in11]

Sucre papi
2 games more than smoak

 

[checks grossman]

Smoak is killin' it in Tacoma, tho. 

 

[651akathepaul]

AAA lifer for all I care.

 

[elpablo21]

 

[Sinner]

Don't like Blowers?  I actually think he's ok.  

Of course, the whole time I'm imagining him restraining himself from trying to strangle Sims... 

 

[a55a5in11]

Blow is cool. Sims needs to be replaced

 

[Sinner]

Sims has been with us for, what, 8 years already?  

 

[checks grossman]

7 years. 

Sims is great. 

 His calls are so emphatic and his sidebar convos are cool..feels like a little history lesson with his old *** stories.

He's pretty good on Sunday nite football on the radio too.

 

[Sinner]

Just caught the Condensed Game... damn, Beltre is so good.

What were the 1st-base side fans doing?

Pax... solid.

 

[finnns2003]

Paxton, when he's on, he's ON.

I like that Cano has turned on the power button lately, maybe he'll get to 18 HR's. Felix going on Friday means... Erasmo time!

 

[651akathepaul]

What were the 1st-base side fans doing?

I thought they were trying to distract the pitcher when he became set right before the pitch. That entire section did the wave at the perfect time.
