i dont know
I would take cain and lincecum, even though cain isnt so much the second coming giants fans think he is
Careful, you'll end up in English Maeriner territory

I don't know if anybody can end up there.
If Pinocchio has a cocaine problem and he lies about it, does that make it worse?
Randy Winn?
Jesus Christ, how awesome would it be if we still had Randy Winn?

As a die-hard Rangers fan
I can safely confirm that what you're seeing from Brad Wilkerson right now is really all he's got.
Based on his 2006 and 2007 numbers I can confirm that this is hyperbole
by Jeff Sullivan on Apr 2, 2008 8:08 PM PDT up reply actions
I'm fairly certain he's not going to keep hitting .000
but I've been wrong before.

Dammit Wilkerson.
You're supposed to convince me you're not Richie's left-handed twin.
can we score loads of runs please?
I'd like a stressfree game.
Jay Buner's not walking through that door...
Adam Jones isn't walking through that door...
Mark McLemore isn't walking through that door...
Wait til Raul offically welcome him
...with two runners on base

Based on all this weird shit we're seeing
when you go to work tomorrow and slack off, and your boss comes over and asks "do you think those memos are going to write themselves?", tell him you like those odds.
Better Smokey analogy:
"Tears of a Clown" --
Sexson in logo.
Wow, his pitch count is in great shape too
Dare i say it, he could go a complete game at this rate...
I see I didn't miss anything while my computer
had a seizure.
*Visiting Angels fan* Never give up, never surrender!
What the fuck is that music?
If Pinocchio has a cocaine problem and he lies about it, does that make it worse?
The past is the past
and hasnt he had a bunch of surgeries? He throws a lot of meatballs from what I've seen so far today.
If I remember correctly...
we hit real pitchers all over the place last year, but couldn't hit crappy ones at all.
That's because the good ones actually throw strikes
And the shitty ones throw tons of balls we hack away at
So how many games till Wilk and Richie get a hit?
10? 20?
And how many before they lose playing time if the can't get a hit?
50? 75?
Richie has a hit
He just has like 5x as many strikeouts.
Well in all honesty that hit wasn't good
by Jeff Sullivan on Apr 2, 2008 8:19 PM PDT up reply actions
regardless
from what I've seen from our offense... that was amazing
Yeah I wasn't
I'll take as many shitty bloopers as we need.

Is Yuni Alfonso Soriano yet?
Refuse to progress!!
So, I just happened to check the game score
And Silva is approaching a K per inning, has allowed only one hit so far, and still hasn't suffered a heart attack from clogged arteries? Is the end of the world here, cause if it is, I'll stop working on my essay due tomorrow right about now.
hey FSN!
FSN!
FSN!
FFFFFFFFFSSSSSSSSNNNNNNNN!
Your camera angles suck!
wwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Refuse to progress!!
But...
Blowers says Jose is a better hitter now than he was when he was an all star! It has to work out!
Richie breaking out real soon?
What are they SMOKING in this broadcast booth?
Free Barry Bonds
Now he "didn't miss by much"...
Free Barry Bonds
Hell hath frozen over
Lopez and Turbo bring the funk!?
Free Barry Bonds
Hey, Sullivan's scouts said he was lost at the plate in the spring...
have they ever been right about anything yet?
The best part of SSS
You don't see stats yet like "Richie is a better hitter than the numbers show - on games starting at 6pm in the Central Time Zone vs. pitchers born between 1973 and 1978 he's a .940 OPS guy this year"
Free Barry Bonds
This remains faithful to the Jose Lopez Three True Outcomes:
1.) Weak pop-up to the infield
2.) Bloop single
3.) Inexplicable home run
This remains faithful to the Jose Lopez Three True Outcomes:
1.) Weak pop-up to the infield
2.) Bloop single
3.) Inexplicable home run
That wasn't inexplicable
He actually worked the count on that one and made Jennings throw him a meat pitch.
can we hire Craig Biggio
to teach our hitters how to turn into pitches that are inside?
Even without Putz
if we keep approaching the plate like this I am waaaaaaaaaaaaayyy more confident in our chances
Silva going late into this game
Would be a great start to limiting that damage, anyways.
Kinda late on the rally fries, eh?
Refuse to progress!!
She was obviously in motion with the fries before the FB
Or, they were finished being prepared before the FB.
Late nonetheless
Needs less fail
Refuse to progress!!
Prediction:
Richie strikes out swinging at a low and away breaking ball. Don't ask me how I know this.....
Man Blowers can sure get that creepy laugh going.

YOU'RE DOING IT WELL
DOING IT AND DOING IT AND DOING IT WELL

is that bar in Pioneer Square going to do
Sexson Beer Monday's again?
Jesus Christ.
What is up with these Vern Fonk commercials?
OR YOU CAN DRIVE YOUR CAR!
I fucking hate you Mariners
If you can believe it he probably looks even deader now.

I think this is why he grew his mountain man beard.

Rally fries for Texas!
I fucking hate you Mariners
Step 1: Say its your birthday and get rally fries...
Step 2: ????
Step 3: Profit
Uhhh...I think you're gonna have to walk that situation off...
DON'T ACT LIKE YOU'RE NOT IMPRESSED!!!
YES LEFT HANDED SOCK FTW
Wait fuck he's not on our team anymore
Someone else catches that
I fucking hate you Mariners
I hate giving up 0-2 home runs
learn an out pitch Silva
Ichiro would have caught that
Favor the Bold
Damn you Ben
You're supposed to be our starting 1B. For a fraction of the cost.
Free Barry Bonds
Broussard
wants to know why he had to leave instead of Sexson.
*Visiting Angels fan* Never give up, never surrender!
At least Wilk made Jim Joyce
run his fatass out to fix the wall.
JJ bobblehead
You get a voucher for one at the game but have to wait 15 days to get it
I fucking hate you Mariners
Anybody else hear the X Files theme?
If Pinocchio has a cocaine problem and he lies about it, does that make it worse?
I mean, it's okay to not have great taste, but when it comes to celebrities, there is a higher standard to live by.
Gillian Anderson falls way below that standard.
Don't get me started
I had to cancel a trip to Amsterdam this year, and I'm not happy. Goddamn Euro.
Silva probably done.
And nothing shabby about this start.
*Visiting Angels fan* Never give up, never surrender!
Doubt that
He's supposed to be an innings eater
First start of the year, no point in overextending him.
*Visiting Angels fan* Never give up, never surrender!
I'd give him one more inning
but have someone up in the pen
At least...
its possible for Adam Jones to catch something.
Get ready for the WILKIE....
he should hit it across Royal Brougham, then the world will truly be upside-down
Won;t....Say...Anything
I fucking hate you Mariners
Shouldn't. Have. Said. Anything. If. I. Can't. Use. Proper. Punctuation.
I fucking hate you Mariners
Do hitters really keep their first hits on their new team?
That doesn't sound like a prized possession to me.
Refuse to progress!!
Was he the last one in the regular lineup to get a hit?
I say regular with some *****
LESS AGGRESSION TO GO, PLEASE
That had SUCK written all over it. Lucky bastard.
Refuse to progress!!
What the hell
At this rate, Richie's gonna steal 10 bases- oh wait he has to actually get on base that many times.
He might get 10 HBP's
I fucking hate you Mariners
Good situational hitting...
In the wrong situation.
Please don't do that again Sims.
If Pinocchio has a cocaine problem and he lies about it, does that make it worse?
ironically, Rob McKenna
totally looks like an internet pedo troller
hmm, speaking of rally fry girl
ball girl seems to be better
Jacket off is dangerously close to Jack it off

"Hey you, jacket off"
Thanks Dave!!
I fucking hate you Mariners
Did he just say Jacking off?
If Pinocchio has a cocaine problem and he lies about it, does that make it worse?
I thought Silva had control
I fucking hate you Mariners
Maybe Mark Lowe.
Most likely Closer by Committee.
Although Groz on KJR wants Tits to be moved to closer and Baek to be moved into the rotation.
I remember the last time Tits was a closer
Richie hit a grand slam off him in the 9th of a game on SkyDome.
For tonight, probably Corco
In the future, probably Lowe
we tried to give them Sexson
don't say we didn't offer

may I also submit that it is a horrible idea to hit Rowland *after* Molina
considering that he's a decent speed doubles hitter
by JI on Apr 2, 2008 9:01 PM PDT up reply actions
That's a pretty awesome lineup
The Fresno Grizzlies have to be the favorites in the PCL- WAIT, that's the Giants lineup?!
I'm pretty sure the Angels have 2 or 3 guys who are better on our bench or in AAA.
*Visiting Angels fan* Never give up, never surrender!
And by better, I mean better than anyone in that lineup.
*Visiting Angels fan* Never give up, never surrender!
Its Gerald Laird.
I'd be worried if they weren't morons and kept Salty up
Is Silva
really sweaty or greasy? can't tell.
117 poor guy. Nice first start.
Incredibly.
The Power of Grease!
If Pinocchio has a cocaine problem and he lies about it, does that make it worse?
Silva's final line:
7 IP 3 hits 1 ER 3 BB 5 K 1 HR 1.29 ERA
Damn fine start.
Final number?
How high?
"I got my pregnant wife (the Yankee fan) with me. Hoping my kid learns to kick her everytime the Mets score." -Schifftis-
116 right now
Previous career high of 112. Rarely exceeds 100.
by Jeff Sullivan on Apr 2, 2008 9:04 PM PDT up reply actions
Didn't he used to have
those insanely low games, like 67 pitch complete games and shit?
"I got my pregnant wife (the Yankee fan) with me. Hoping my kid learns to kick her everytime the Mets score." -Schifftis-
See Jeff
I told you, Carlos Silva simply can't be as bad as some of your readers thought he was going to be.
He simply can't be that bad.
"I got my pregnant wife (the Yankee fan) with me. Hoping my kid learns to kick her everytime the Mets score." -Schifftis-
Silva is a decent player to have on a club.
His contract isn't.
Does it iss anyone else off to no end
when Mike Young doesn't completely brick a routine groundball?
Wait are you kidding me
I missed a Vidro funk blast AND one from Lopez??? What in the blue fuck is going on? Are the baseball gods high or something?
*Yawn*
I can't stay up this late again, see you guys tommorow.
*Visiting Angels fan* Never give up, never surrender!
