    People may think is illogical but Carlos is bad vibes. When he came in the game I knew they would lose some type of way. He's poison. And the count down should start for Hinch being fired.

    saying the "took their chances" is giving them way too much credit. they took a senseless, asinine chance that no manager with a brain would have taken.

    it's an inexcusable way to lose the game. likely will lead to losing the next 4 too.

    team just finds ways to lose on the road. mental midgetry.

    Ortiz might be the most clutch player in the last 20 years.... either him or Bonds

    You walk a great player in that situation even if they aren't particularly clutch.

    BOS gave you the blueprint TWICE with Altuve same game.

    Ortiz has killed you ALL DAY already.

    Hinch displayed an all new level of dumbass-ness. So f***** foolish.

    If anyone thinks Hinch is a good coach please prove it after this game

    He will not learn, the mariners won games vs astros because the idiot manager Kept pitching to him. Now this with papi, mistake twice. The first time you pitch difficult to him, the second one is an easy choice. Yes, mr homer will defend Hinch but we are not going anywhere with this guy managing. Now, the season is over, let him work with the young guys, and when we are ready, let's bring a real manager

    Hinch is looking like a deer in head lights idiot in this post game interview. He knows he sucks at managing and is in over his head.

    Hinch:

    (Ortiz) He got us twice. Both middle part of the field. He wasn't do anything other than hit it hard. Painful lesson, you gotta make better pitches and not get in that situaton to begin with.

    We had every chance to win that game. Hard fought game, tough to lose.

    (Gregerson) The walk ended up costing him. He made his pitches other than that. Made enough pitches until the last pitch to Ortiz. Jake made a nice effort but that's how they tied it and then win the game as we saw.

    (Ortiz) 2 strikes, hard to not take 2 waste pitches, which is what Castro went out to tell him. He mis-executed a pitch. It's easy now. You walk a guy with 2 strikes, odds are still in your favor it'd go fine. If you'd like to replay it, I'd happily walk him, sure.

    The stupid base running cost us a likely run that would have won the game without going to extras likely. Never know how things would play out once something different happens, but the lack of discipline on this team is past alarming and is never answered for

    5 RBI's today from Springer's grand slam and a Correa homer with Altuve continuing to rake.

    Meanwhile Colby has fallen off and the rest of the lineup is hot garbage. Unless change happens they will continue to be a below .500 team

    DFA Gomez please

    As bad as he is, they could easily trade him if they wanted to sale at the absolute lowest point. Jake should be sent down for Kemp immediately

    I would like to see Castro moved up in the lineup, which is sad I suppose

    Na not much

    Hinch was dumb and started the wrong people and left the studs in the bench

    Then he stupidly put in Giles instead of Feliz

    Just the normal stuff
