I can see it now.

If the offense doesn’t score enough runs to win, Wlad is going to get blamed.

He was talking about Griffey and 600 homers.

by ralphie81 on Apr 30, 2008 5:16 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Exactly.

Sliding into home is stupid. If you come in standing up, the catcher is going to hesitate and he is more likely to miss the ball, even if your intention is not pound him into the ground.

But on a bloop hit like that, Blake should have been halfway to homeplate by the time the ball landed.

by Wilder. on Apr 30, 2008 5:20 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yeah, but he should have been in the dugout before Ichiro even got a throw off.

Amazing arm by Ichiro, but slow ass baserunning on the part of Blake.

I won’t complain, though. I am happy things turned out the way they did.

Maybe as the trade deadline approaches...

The M’s can spin off Washburn to a pitching starved team whose GM suffers from Sabeanitis. It’s not like R.A. Dickey would do any worse, and at least he’d last longer.

Okay, having Wlad in the lineup is nice, but was anyone expecting to win this game anyway? It’s Jarrod Washburn vs. somehow-freakishly-good Cliff Lee.

Knowing that theres no way Lee continues to pitch as well as he is

Huh

Is the development of Felix Hernandez a sign the M’s as an organization have finally turned the corner in harvesting home grown pitching or did he bludgeon through system incompetence on the strength of his talent? Because I can’t think of a recent solid Mariners starter who came up through the system. Sure, Pineiro and Meche had their uh…moments, but they’re both freaking head cases. And then there’s the long line of Andersons, Blackleys, Nageottes, Cloudes…etc.

It just seems like the M’s are grossly exceeding the defect rate for starting pitching and It’d be nice if Aumont made it to the bigs in one rationally thinking piece…
