    JV isn’t the same pitcher. He’s old. I wouldn’t sign him.

    Like I said Espada is on his way to choking the division

    It was a courtesy ball since the count was 0-2.

    Mariners are 3-1 since they fired Servais. The one loss they barely lost. Things are getting interesting.

    4 runs feels insurmountable the way the astros have been playing.

    i'm also out of pistachios.

    So the question begging to be asked, what happens when the really good starting pitching dries up?

    This team will be in deep doo doo, couple that with AAA level fielding and you've got the recipe for a team out of the playoffs.

    If that happens, Brown and Espada need to be shown the door.

    Yeah this is a loss. This team ain’t scoring 5+ runs.

    Now back to hoping Seattle loses.

    Okay but they also came back from 4 down because Melvin watched his pitcher implode. So they also could easily be 2-2. They also have been ass on the road all year.

    2 wins they barely won (both 1-run victories)

    He was pretty good for us last season... the manager just chose to piss away a championship.

    Back to relying on the mariners losing to continue staying ahead.

    They came back down 4 runs in the 8th to win one of those close ones. They've got juice. Stealing bases at will and playing good small ball.
