Kelenic

He's what Ackley was supposed to be. And I guess this is who he was supposed to be.

I'll be in attendance tomorrow night.

Wait. Who's Milone???

What are those?

 

[651akathepaul]

Wait. Who's Milone???

Former A's, Twins...stint with the M's a few years ago. 2012 with Oakland had folks thinking he was the next A's great to be traded. Moved to bullpen. Kendall Gravemen lite.

 

[Sinner]

Was he always with the team or newly acquired???

Games move too fast, bros. We got caught up at Hatback trying to watch the Warriors/Kings game...before you know it, we sitting down and it's already the 4th inning.

Most annoying take I see on Twitter and/or Reddit: JP is bad and/or worthless.

Peep his bWAR/fWAR, he also passes the eye test this season. Julio’s triple today was huge but doesn’t happen without Wong’s incredible 10-pitch walk, followed by JP’s clutch hit to keep it going. He’s such a valuable player if he remains around .250 for the remainder of the season; his defense looks more like what it was two seasons ago too.

 

[Sinner]

Surprised there aren't any Jackie Grifs this year.

 

[elpablo21]

Damn haven't seen the JP turn on social media yet

 

[Sinner]

Luis pitching an absolute gem... so, of course, there isn't any run support.

 

[CrownRoyalDaddy]

JK once again!

Also found the Julio jersey i wanted on proimagesports.

 

[Sinner]

Hey now.

 

[Sinner]

Oh, well... just get the win, please.

Gonna be at TMO tonight for my first game of the season. Hoping Gilbert can continue with another strong outing and the M's give him enough run support.

Let me know if MOTO is finally open...

Just checked their IG and looks like they're not open til late May...

 

[アミーゴ]

Yeah heard late May as well

BS

 

[DsLee]

Next game I’m planning to go to is the JP Funko giveaway the last Saturday of May, hope to grab some pizza then lol!

 

[jayt1202]

Tough loss in extras. I feel like this team is still finding its identity and figuring out the pitching rotation.

 

[Sinner]

Plus we can't get any damn production from the DH. You'd think that'd be the easiest spot to fill!

Saw the numbers from the DH spot, crazy… I get the theory on La Stella/Pollock over committing to JD Martinez, but they should’ve offered JD $15M and call it tbh.

End of the day, I think Pollock will mash in Seattle and Wong will be batting .220 by mid May, with Trammell likely returning to give Teoscar more ABs as DH too. M’s have a dropped a ton of one-run games and lost all extra inning ones so far, it’ll flip eventually.

 

[Sinner]

LOL

I like the trident celebration touch. Also really hoping the City Connect jerseys feature some form of the trident and not the rumored Pilots look. The city really has about 0 connection to the Pilots other than being the first team. They really didn't do anything memorable that season it seems like.
