Yep he's gonna get paid, but it won't be for 4 more years. Him and McHugh could be a titanic bargain for the next few years. It leaves Crane with a lot of financial flexibility to put his money where his mouth is in free agency. This team's BABIP continues to be inordinately low. The fact that we are still 5-6 despite that is very encouraging. We're 8th in the MLB in walk rate, and surprisingly 4th in HR despite only getting 2 out of the Gattis/Springer/Carter trio.
Only 11 games in, but if the Mariners aren't as good as the pundits expected, our division is wide open. A bunch of mediocrity. Let's get back to .500 today boys.
Richards is pitching for the Angels. With Grossman in the lineup today, Hinch is staying true to his word - if you hit a homerun you're in the lineup next day. A little bit of a different look with Valbuena batting 2nd. 1. Jose Altuve (R) 2B 2. Luis Valbuena (L) 3B 3. George Springer (R) RF 4. Evan Gattis (R) DH 5. Jed Lowrie (S) SS 6. Jason Castro (L) C 7. Chris Carter (R) 1B 8. Colby Rasmus (L) CF 9. Robbie Grossman (S) LF
There should be a limit on the amount of time for a review, like 1 minute. If you can't tell quickly, then you can't overturn it. It should be obvious for an over rule
His new word should be if you can't break the .100 ba then you may not be in the lineup. Uh hmmm (CHRIS CARTER)!
Did we really score a run in the 5th? Game tracker says yes, but I can't find evidence of this happening anywhere else.
