5/13: Open Game Thread
Seattle Mariners at Texas Rangers, May 13, 2008 5:05 PM PDT
Kason Gabbard sucks, we suck more, and Felix has been kind of annoying lately, so this one's set up to be right proper stupid.

I love parlays. I hate the Oklahoma State for the worst sports bet loss of all time, while we’re on the subject
I took Texas -2.5 @ OSU earlier this year. UT is up 3, OSU has the ball with about ten seconds to play – they miss, foul Augustin, he makes two free throws – five point game with 8 seconds to play. OSU runs down the court, and their guy heaves in a 30 footer with two seconds to play to cut the lead to two…. and then they don’t foul on the inbounds and cover by half a point.

That's right Blowers, the overall defense has been fantastic this year.
Keep telling yourself that.

Why don't hitters swing at any pitches out of the zone against us?
I don’t get it but it sure seems like hitters just take take take take take take vs. our pitchers this year. Like, way more than last year. Is there any way to back this up?

Wash, Silva, and Bedard have Swng% about 1-3% lower than last year, but nothing else really supports it.
I imagine most of that has come during our recent span of no control, and I’m probably just letting something that’s too fresh in my mind form a rational opinion.

I think they played "Back Then" by Mike Jones for Randy Winn back when he was with the Mariners.
But most white people don’t know what skeet means, so I think he could get away with playing the song.

Exactly.
Soccer moms going “SKEET SKEET SKEET” while not knowing what it means. If they ever did, Anaheim would collapse into a nuked crater.

Groundballs and strikeouts. Only the linedrive that Raul sucked at was a bad Felix time. The walk seemed like a slight squeezing.

by Happybelly on May 13, 2008 5:53 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
No, just saying that Ichiro will never be considered among the greatest leadoff hitters of all time, which is patently untrue
by Jeff on May 13, 2008 5:54 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
It's kinda funny considering that right or wrong, most people would probably consider
Ichiro THE greatest leadoff hitter of all time.
Because really, when you think leadoff hitter, Ichiro is generally the first name you think of.
