    Yep Blum said on the broadcast this was probably his most extensive use of 4 different pitches in today's start.

    Can't wait to have the problem of which of these 10 starters are the odd men out.

    Valdez
    Brown
    McCullers
    Gusto
    Walter
    Gordon
    Arrighetti
    Javier
    Garcia
    France

    Astros 43-2 when leading after 7.

    Was it both to the Mariners at home very early in the season?

    I meant the starting rotation

    Who is Rodriguez?

    Given the turd sandwich Dusty dropped on us in the postseason refusing to play Diaz & Chazzy-fizz definitely put the damper on that.

    I feel like you and Andrew need to discuss the post-all star lineup tomorrow.

    I'm holding out hope we stick Tuve back at 2B and then rotate the DH between Yordan/Yainer/Carrot with days off sprinkled in for all 3 of them. Let Yordan play LF when he's not getting a rest day or DH then platoon him with the Hammel & McCormick and have McCormick play games in CF when you want to give Jake the day off. This is of course entirely health dependent.

    Mariners finally have to go play some teams with a friggin pulse now the next couple series.

    Snuck by the 12-32 road Pirates with a couple 1-0 wins.

    If you were given a 4-2 record this week vs the Guardians and Texans and let's say both series wins 2-1, would you take it or say let's play it out instead?

    Feels like the Astros won a playoff series. The streak is so impressive. How good will they be when they have a full pitching staff and all their injured players return? Yes, the Mariners are getting on my nerves by "keeping up."

    I wish the Rangers would have swept Seattle last weekend, all 3 games went extras and Seattle lucked out 2 of them.

    It does annoy me we walk into Chavez Ravine.. sweep the team with the best record in baseball and don’t push the Mariners further down because they had the fortune of playing the Pirates, who are bad, but NEXT level bad on the road.

    (of course we played PITT at PITT)

    Ranger fans got be wondering why the hell they hired Bret Boone as their hitting coach. He's atrocious.

    I think its more likely now that the Dodgers cheated in the 2017 WS as there is no way they should of gotten to a game 7

    Who has the best record vs above .500 teams?

    That would be your Houston Astros at 28-19.

    Astros/Dodgers series

    OPS
    Astros 1.100
    Dodgers .478

    Dodgers got humiliated and then some. You love to see it.
