That stolen base helps my fantasy team!

And by 'my fantasy team' I mean 'the Mariners'

Remember when there was talk of us

signing Delgado and playing Sexson in LF?

At least that didn't happen

Jesus Christ

there was a point in time where a much younger me was all over that idea.

by BrianL on Apr 13, 2008 2:05 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I was dubious about it

but at the time I wouldn't have been up in arms if it would have happened

STEAL HOME ICHIRO

I'd like that to happen.

Just saw him.. laughed out loud.

He has such a happy "I am cracked out and like the fun noises" look on his face

by seattlesundevil on Apr 13, 2008 2:07 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

He can't hit lefties

So that was a good at-bat by his standards

by Graham on Apr 13, 2008 2:08 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

*shrug*

I don't feel strongly about that at-bat one way or another.

Those girls

Need rally salads, instead.

by Garces on Apr 13, 2008 2:11 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

I'm taking 5 hot girls to the Red Sox series

in Late July.

Would this be a good time to acquire rally fries?

Holy crap

I can't remember the last time a pitchout actually worked.

by Jeff on Apr 13, 2008 2:14 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Looked scary off the bat

Thank God we have Morse out there though!!!

Hey Baek

just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you.

That

was...not a strike.

Cabrera

Wizard of the OC, not missing that guy.

Richie's slide

reminded me of Willie Mays Hayes.

by Garces on Apr 13, 2008 2:25 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Come on Mike Morse!

Reach base so next inning won't be Cairo-Burke-Yuni

by seattlebruin on Apr 13, 2008 2:25 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Morse!

Bradtastic!!

by MFAN on Apr 13, 2008 2:27 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Nice AB

Better catch.

by Garces on Apr 13, 2008 2:27 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Cairo starting

elves everywhere celebrate

Damn you HGH

He tried to suck there, but then thought better of it

Joel PIneiro v. SF:

3.2 IP, 8H, 6R, 0K, 1HR

This is an outstanding contract.

That takes talent

Giving up home runs which take away runs from t he battinghb team?

I have run out of beer.

This is why God invented gin

Richie

flirting with Chone.

by Garces on Apr 13, 2008 2:32 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

I would like to see a offsping with

Richie's power and tallness, with Figgins' ability to make contact, run, play not horrible defense and name spelling skills.

Minor League Wrap-Up is posted below this Part 2 Game Thread

I have found that staying away from Mariner games on bad Mariner days has helped me, so I'll do that for now.

Walk him!

Hey, fucking genius idea.

by Garces on Apr 13, 2008 2:37 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Uh, what?

He can't be done, can he?

by Garces on Apr 13, 2008 2:38 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

That's about what I expected..

Some post in the first game thread sayin 4 or 5 innings - he hasnt thrown much and cannot possibly be stretched out enough to go deep in the game. That being said, He still looked like he had something left - but oh well

by seattlesundevil on Apr 13, 2008 2:40 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Although better to take him out too early

.... than too late. We can't afford to get far behind with this anemic lineup,

by saltydog75 on Apr 13, 2008 2:39 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

It's alla bout the roles, Jeff.

It's a high leverage situation against a lefty! We need our situation lefty to pitch.

So...do I watch Potatoes blow this or do I play Super Metroid instead?

I've gotten to the point where I can do a perfect 100% item game in 1h20m.

by esoteric on Apr 13, 2008 2:40 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Blow it open, I suppose.

Good point.

But really, I just want to talk about how great Super Metroid still is.

McLaren is my hero

I never thought such dumbasses could one day end up being so succesful, even if it is merely in title alone.

by cwel87 on Apr 13, 2008 2:40 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Potatoes

Doesn't have the right mental makeup to pitch in the 5th with runners on first and second and two out.

This is a bad move.

by Garces on Apr 13, 2008 2:41 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Not a bad play by Cairo

But Beltre makes that with time to spare.

by Garces on Apr 13, 2008 2:41 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Yeah

Mike Morse is way better than Brad WIlkerson

by Matthew on Apr 13, 2008 2:43 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Oh wow

That was beauty in motion.

by Smegmalicious on Apr 13, 2008 2:43 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

so yeah, this game is over.

and EOF is going to get the blame for things not his fault. Ditto Baek.
