5/22: Open Game Thread
Seattle @ Detroit
Jeremy Bonderman can't pitch* despite possessing all the stuff necessary to be a staff ace. Miguel Batista can't pitch.
(* Not counting 2008 however, as his fastball's down and he may be injured.)
Best Mariner lineup so far all season. Small victory.

I was going to say that it would look like a ML lineup if we played Albert Pujols at first instead of Richie
but that seemed too obvious

Yeah, considering that Bard is writhing in pain right at this moment...

Pujols wrecked some bitches in the Padres game yesterday
At least we don't have Zito's contract.

Miles is the second fattest second baseman in the game
You know Vidro is bound to get some time there this season.

Am I crazy?
Or does a sub .300 on base percentage player not need to be batting in the heart of the order?

If his name was Mister Awesome, he wouldn't get a crown
those are reserved for royalty. Like KA. and the King, Felix Hernandez.

he would have destroyed Washburn by now like Wash destroyed that sixteen year old girl’s hopes and dreams.

Look at it this way,
Sheffield and his pile of suck is batting 3rd for the Tigers.

No, that would just showcase him and we'd trade him for a delicious can of sprite.
I like using semi-colons; they make me feel smart.

you know the Mariners would trade
for a half-opened, flat can of Sprite, though. Which is pretty much as not refreshing as you can get.

They'd probably trade for a half-opened, flat two liter of Sprite
which is like whatever (2L/12oz)*conversion factor as unrefreshing as the half-opened flat can of Sprite

5/22/08 Seattle Mariners: Recalled RHP R.A. Dickey from Triple-A Tacoma.
I have a feeling there will be a photoshop image in this threads near future.

we all know it was johjima's fault Dickey got sent back to AAA earlier this year
I heard his personal catcher is going to be Miguel Cairo

That was actually the subject of a FanPost I was thinking of
“What Mariners lineup consisting only of players on the current roster would be the most amusing to you for a one game trial”

Like with babies I prefer to filet most of the skin off first so you can taste the juices a little better.

My work just gave me a new 22" Samsung monitor
with the intention of dualing it… and then the IT guy realized what I hadn’t even bothered to check – my video card doesn’t support dual monitors.
Now I just want to keep the $300 monitor and dual it with my 22” Westinghouse at home… I wonder if they’d let me bring my spare 19” to work and trade it for the new 22…

They were 88-74 in 2007
so not so much.
