    There’s an immense satisfaction for pummeling the Dodgers ruthlessly for 3 consecutive games

    I was wondering that like 10 days ago. What if we try to insert our 91mph righty regulars to rotation and we bounce Gordon, Gekko, Walter & Gusto and we start to lose? Yikes. Hopefully they give guys on IL long runway in minors as rehab to be running instead of limping in MLB mound. :)

    Look at it from the Mariners perspective. You just know they expected to pick up 2 or 3 games on the Astros and nada.

    Let’s not undersell the sheer joy that MLB fans that hate the Dodgers took from that series. It’s hilarious reading other fans post how they hate us but hate LA so much they’ll root for us. Man that’s a bad hate.

    Absolutely you take 4-2 of offered. 667 baseball is 108 wins. I’d have to be playing the Rockies and white Sox at home to not take 4-2.

    WOW, I expected us to LWW, then after we won game one, I thought we would WWL...................but we go WWW, this is the most satisfying beat down of the year, I absolutely hate the Dodgers and who better then to kick their ass then the MAN Jose Altuve, all the boos on Saturday with that crowd was magical.......................please, please, please keep booing him, he feeds off of it. IMO this streak were on is so impressive I have to give Espada his flowers, as much as it pains me. At some point we will come back to earth right??

    Skenes was absolutely dealing and then the Pirates took him out of the game early because they want him to be rested for his All-Star start. Even the Mariners fans were confused. They face the scuffling Yankees starting tomorrow.

    I think the first one was on the road and the second one was at home. Both against the Mariners

    True, but they were playing the Pirates so kind of expected. Here's the other way of looking at it: the Mariners shutout the Pirates all 3 games that series and thoroughly dominated... and yet did not gain a single game in the division because the Astros swept the Dodgers in LA!

    I guarantee you Mariners fans were licking their chops going into the weekend after looking at those matchups.
