Joyous Times

Cairo in the lineup again and batting 2nd.

On the plus side they are sticking with Clement even as he struggles at the plate.

Miguel Cairo is batting fucking second?

That’s it. I’m not watching today’s game

nope

I was thinking the same thing…. and I’d rather have him hitting second then Cairo and I’m not a fan of either one of them.

I'd take Triunfel over both of them

Though setting his development back several years and possibly recking his psychological framework isn’t in the Mariners best interest. Let’s trade him for Griffey!

not for a first baseman

this team needs someone that can hit homeruns…. Truinfel wouldn’t be the answer…. even if you were talking in jest.

if they’re going to go to the minors for someone to come up to develop, I’d rather see them bring up Saunders from AA and put him in Left… and Raul at first.

and yes

there is absolutely no reason why Vidro is not playing first

No disrespect Captain sir...

I was watching the Rays

but they were trailing so I figured I might be bringing them Mariner luck so I stopped.

And then they scored 4 runs

I think you’re onto something here.

I'm telling you

I would quit watching the M’s, but they’ve lost games I haven’t watched, so that’s not it….

The Mariners are boring otherwise.

Maybe Ichiro doesn't have a mother

It’s like that episode of X-Files. All great baseball players are actually aliens in disguise.

Dammit Mariners..

Don’t score runs, we need to be as bad as the owner wanted the Indians ot be in Major league.

This is me happy :)

I’m happy when the Rays win :)

by BrianL on May 11, 2008 1:36 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I have bet with a friend that the Rays will win 80.

Hahaha he was so happy to make the bet and now he realizes what I knew: the Rays are good.

Go Nova

by dbroncos31 on May 11, 2008 1:42 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I've got a similar bet.

Wagered $500 that the Rays would finish over .500 with a friend of mine. Sucker was dumb enough to take me up on it.

by BrianL on May 11, 2008 1:43 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I wish my friend was willing to bet that much.

At one point I had a 10,000-1 $1 bet that the NCAA Final would be Texas-Davidson. I made this before the brackets came out…and my friend was freaking out when they both got to the Sweet Sixteen.

nope

just a nice play by Kenji though I’m not convinced he caught that in fair play.

Midnight Baseball - No Lights - Only in Alaska!

by MfaninAlaska on May 11, 2008 1:46 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Just saw the replay.

Heads up play by Kenji, even if the ball wasn’t fair.

by BrianL on May 11, 2008 1:47 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I win a bet!!

I thought there would be a 2-6 double play in today’s game!

I fucking hate you Mariners

HAPPY LOPEZ

Finally someone let him try and pull the ball for once.

Clement needs some hits

to rebuild his confidence….

Midnight Baseball - No Lights - Only in Alaska!

by MfaninAlaska on May 11, 2008 1:48 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

His LD% is pretty good.

He’s been working the count deep. Overall I like what he’s shown.

by BrianL on May 11, 2008 1:49 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

his K% is what is abnormal

he hits it hard when he puts it in play… he’s just being fooled way too much right now.

Midnight Baseball - No Lights - Only in Alaska!

by MfaninAlaska on May 11, 2008 1:50 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

And there's a walk.

I’m going to chalk up the K% to a small sample size right now.

by BrianL on May 11, 2008 1:51 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

IT seems like hes FORCING the count deep

Instead of having a good eye, and LETTING it go deep.

so he gets himself down 2-0 with the mindset of just taking some pitches no matter what.

get him to swing hard and early, and he’ll be set.

but thats just what i think.

by PShwa on May 11, 2008 1:51 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

He's looking really lost

I think you’re right about the confidence thing

by Graham on May 11, 2008 1:51 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

So I see that Johnnie Mac was hitting the bottle before the game.

This is one of the weirdest lineups I’ve ever seen

Go Nova

That was interesting

Like Derek mentioned yesterday

Another good thing about losing is that I can take solace in the knowledge that it’s screwing over the scalpers.

The artist formerly known as Katal

by Katal LM on May 11, 2008 1:57 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I propose

that during the offseason all of the Mariners are forced to serve as deckhands on the Deadliest catch. That’ll toughen them up.

Wow. I’m almost proud, but not really because that would make me a retard

Lou would have tossed a base by now

That type of behavior is innapropriate for a family setting

That’s why we like Mac.

The artist formerly known as Katal

by Katal LM on May 11, 2008 1:59 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

No.

Lou would have gunned down 30 people and held the Mariners hostage in the dugout.

by Wilder. on May 11, 2008 2:00 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Mariners Batting Line

Today: .375/.444/.625

1 run. Hahahaha I love this team

(Obviously there’s only been 9 PA, but still.)

Go Nova

What is the record of most consecutive losses?

If we have the record for most wins in a season, we must obtain this record.
