6/22: Open Game Thread
Seattle Mariners at Atlanta Braves, Jun 22, 2008 10:35 AM PDT
Remember when that three-way trade rumor was swirling where we'd give up Richie Sexson and Rafael Soriano and land Tim Hudson and Adam LaRoche? Remember that? Remember how fun that was?
Fuck you, Tim Hudson.

Dear God....

Willie Bloomquist 2B
Raul Ibanez LF
Jose Vidro 1B
Jeremy Reed CF
Yuniesky Betancourt SS
Jeff Clement C
Miguel Cairo 3B
Carlos Silva P
Beltre still out...
that sucks, I’d rather we just play Sexson, he’s about the same as Vidro in suckiness, but at least he MIGHT hit 2 hrs in a week, and fool some team into giving us something in return.

John Kruk just said that the M's have tons of problems
but their main problems are Sexson, Vidro, and Beltre, and he singled out Beltre!
I’m not sure what his appeal is since he’s ugly, dumb, and wasn’t a good player anyways. Is it like a John Daly appeal thing?

I actually find them to be ok
Neyer, Stark, Caple, some of the other guys. But I’m just comparing them to their NBA guys, who are HORRIBLE.

It worked so well in Oakland
Then again, this can’t hurt his trade value at all. Do it.

I was hoping for Kenji to 1B
:( Looks like that’s not happening after all.
Bloomquist has been 'quite good', Kreuger?
Quick, tell me how many extra base hits he has this season.
Extra base hits aren't gritty.
Furthermore, they’re selfish.
A .589 OPS is "quite good"
Wow our standards are low.
Bloomquist and Cairo count as young guys?
Your= "belonging to you" You're= "You are" (like the song)
Our offense has bottomed out huh Kreuger?
You obviously haven’t seen today’s lineup.
The Seattle Times pleased me this morning
Every Sunday they publish readers’ letters about sports. Today’s edition featured letter after letter of fans going off on how Armstrong/Lincoln need to go away. It’s nice to know that more and more Seattle fans are starting to get it.
Champion of the sun
Once the casual fans start screaming for Armstrong and Lincoln's heads
the collapse of this franchise shall be complete.
Churchill, Re: the bedard sweepstakes
St. Louis CardinalsThis is where it gets interesting. If I’m the M’s I don’t even talk with the Cardinals unless they agree that Colby Rasmus is in any trade offer.
After that, left-hander Jaime Garcia and catcher Bryan Anderson make for a solid package as well.
But with Rasmus included, the M’s may not be able to pry away another of the top three in the Cards’ system as STL is not deep in potential impact prospects.
The Mariners should be looking to replace two of the young players they lost in the Bedard trade to begin with – Adam Jones and Chris Tillman – and Rasmus and Garcia might be the pinnacle of what they can get in return for the 29-year-old.
Booooo! The arer stupid if they agree to that. Hiss! Hiss!
(Although I guess I could live with it since the M’s would benefit).
Your= "belonging to you" You're= "You are" (like the song)
Honestly
If we get a player that’s comparable to either Jones or Tillman, I’ll be satisfied.
Champion of the sun
If we can do that, and maybe grab a young #3-4 starter
I’d be thrilled.
A young 3-4 starter would be our new #2
I’m fully expecting the trade to be something like “Bedard to the Cubs for Felix Pie and Gallagher”
Champion of the sun
Eh.
I’d rather not deal him this July unless we get blown away with a Bavasi offer.
Otherwise, it’s better to hold onto him until at least the winter and see who the new GM is and let him make the decision. Having assets on the team is going to help with luring better GM candidates.
Oh I agree.
If we trade him, I’d rather it not be until next season’s trade deadline.
Well, I still think just before the trade deadline is the best time to deal someone.
but if Sabbathia gives him competition, and if Bedard is still “sucking” and slightly injured, we should hold him and trade him when his value is at his highest, something the M’s are good at (except they trade or sign guys when their value is at its highest, not the other way around).
I may be wrong
but the trade deadline isn’t what it was 10 years ago. You’re not going to get three grade A prospects for him. You might as well let him try to pitch himself back to form and proceed in the offseason.
Your= "belonging to you" You're= "You are" (like the song)
True, but the demand for a #1 should be higher
In the offseason, you can’t assume that a #1 starte will get you in the playoffs (ex: the Mariners) but if you’re leading or close to leading the division at the all star break, and you can get a #1, might as well do it, more urgency/reason for it.
Baker:
Adrian Beltre is still bothered by his sore left index finger, even though it’s improving. Jose Lopez is just getting a day off. So is Richie Sexson (hold your jokes). I think I’m going to revive my “reverse lock” theory of a couple of weeks ago and call another Mariners’ victory, because this lineup shouldn’t have a prayer against Hudson.
hahahaha
Your= "belonging to you" You're= "You are" (like the song)
Just a bit.
Geoff’s not on this road trip. Larry’s filling in.
It's not fair that Baker's picture is plastered on to it.

And Krueger agrees!, ha!
I wonder why people keep making a big deal out of Washburn throwing
115 pitches? Who cares? He didn’t last 6 innings!
NOOOO I need SB's from Ellsbury....
Because he’s my favorite player…
At least we don't have Zito's contract.
Aw makes sense.
At least we don't have Zito's contract.
For the hilairty of seeing him sweep the Red Sox.
Your= "belonging to you" You're= "You are" (like the song)
No, but does that prevent him from being my favorite player?
He went to OSU, I go to OSU. Being on the BoSox is unfortunate but I root for him not the team.
At least we don't have Zito's contract.
Hm... didn't realize he was sucking so much this year.
I try to not pay attention to Boston. avg, and slg way down from last year’s small sample size. Isn’t his defense awesome though?

For the same reason that
assembling a slow impatient single hitting offense was supposed to score runs, and a pitch to contact staff that issued few walks, and few homers was supposed to prevent them.

This might be the worst defensive infield ever
And we have a groundball pitcher on the mound.
This is why I put $5 on the Mariners to lose by more than 1 run.

Believe it or not.
Ive learned from watching that show.
The show is ok I guess, but the only reason I watched it is to get an insight on why the show has so many fans. And yeah, it actually can teach you a few things.
Well it sounds cliche.
-But little things really matter to girls.
-Communication is key.
-Surprising them with unexpected stuff keeps things fresh.
-Being considerate is a major plus.
-Take an interest in her interests.
-Be willing to fulfill her needs in bed, instead of just going through the motions.
-Give her space when she asks for it, instead of arguing or trying to talk things out immediately. She will come around.
Ive always gotten girls way outta my league, but the show has helped me improve a little. I never watched the show religiously, but watched it here and there.
My secret weapon…is being genuine. Everything I say and do is genuine. I always thought that was my strength when getting girls. Ive even dated an ex model. Did I mention im 21?...
Oh and chicks seem to dig musicians. I play the guitar and can sing, so that helps.
If I sound arrogant
I apologize.
But I think NOLA would agree with most of those points.
Musicians are my weakness.
The surprise element helps.
You forgot being willing to talk.
Show her you want her and find her attractive.

Very well
Ever since I openly started singing and playing the guitar, every girl I have come in contact with had her eyes light up when I told them I can play/sing.
Although I have to back it up alot now, they seem to love a guy singing to them.
Drummers are also major with girls, from my experience. But I suck at drums.
Guitar player?
Oh screw you. I hate your kind. Oh look at me, I wrote 200 songs last night, let me sing one to you. This ones about the books on my bookshelf. Wheee look at me I play guitar and sing.

Actually a solid play.

Yeah, and then you get philosophical and realize that play
