Hey Keith,

I’ve familiar with your opinion on Jeff Clement, but how high do you think the ceiling is for Wladimir Balentien?

By keith on May 3, 2008

Frosty: Yes, Balentien should be better than what Wilkerson gave Seattle. (Although color me confused at where Wilkerson’s power from just a few years ago has gone.) He’s not better than Jones, but he has above-average raw power and some willingness to work the count.

Damn. was hoping he'd make it to 50.

I wish some of our vets would follow his example

Well done to Julio though on a fine career.

Oh, so that is how the movie "Stealth" ended.

Aren’t we getting a little too over-dramatic with the whole A.I. sacrificing itself to save the humans?

One of the dumbest movies I have ever seen.

I actually watched the movie in 3 parts over a 6 month period because it was ridiculously bad. And it helped I happened to turn the TV on at the right time to accomplish this feat.

I like to think

Rivera was actually calling Michael Kay “dickhead” instead.

Same

I’m even more amazed that some commentators don’t even know the names of other teams’ stadiums. You’re presumably interested in baseball AND it’s your job to talk about it: do some flamin’ research!

Either the Cleveland or the Baltimore team was really bad for this, can’t remember which.

Brett Boone for secondary color commentary

Because he knows to ask Joe Buck and Tim McCarver about when it’s appropriate to bring Mariano Rivera in.

Dear Mariners

you’ve ruined my life and you can go fuck yourselves. I’m going back to sleep.

Tiger Woods losing badly at the Wachovia.

If he is so good, why can’t he play through injuries?

Way to go for that one, Richie.

It’s 2-0. You don’t HAVE to swing.

by AtomicGarden on May 3, 2008 12:41 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

at least there were 2 outs

although I’ve stopped keeping track of double plays we’ve hit into.

by AtomicGarden on May 3, 2008 12:43 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Seriously has a Mariner pitcher ever NOT swung 3-1?

Is it too early to call up Carlos Triunfel?

Sure, it could set his development back a few years…

this game is like

listening to your ex girlfriend whine at you all day, while trying to watch american idol, and having eric clapton records playing on repeat in the background.

while nursing a hangover.

that you got because you had to kill the pain the night before from a hernia surgery.

I forgot the tag.

It went something along the lines of “Ichiro calling upon his superpowers to get Ibanez the fuck away from the ball.”

Heh, Brian Hunter

He tied for the second worst lead off hitter since 1957 in a Hardball Times article on the worst lead off hitters for a single season. Stolen bases are awesome.
