    Why throw him a hittable pitch right now. He is one of the few real threats right now, especially against Mariner pitching.

    Yanier is a good hitter but if he doesn’t figure out the strike zone, I could see next season being horrendous for him if other pitchers realize you don’t have to throw him a strike.

    The baseball gods frown on people that don't help themselves and have hubris.

    my expectations have lowered. this is a wild card team.

    unless they go on a 10 games winning streak.
