Pravda:

The first pitch in the Mariners' series opener against the Yankees could be a fastball, cutter, slider, curveball, splitter or changeup -- the impressive repertoire right-hander Brandon Morrow has at his disposal for the first start of his Major League career.

I have an inkling.

Yay!

Brandon!

My money is on cutter, slider, curveball, splitter or changeup

Also 6 pitches is a bad sign…that means none but the fastball are very good doesn’t it?

I can't help but be pessimistic about this.

The fact that it’s the Yankees notwithstanding, there’s just no way Brandon is ready to be big-league starter.

Oh well. I’m done caring for this year.

by Teej on Sep 5, 2008 6:12 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Don't care, still interesting

if he’s not ready, at least we’ll get an idea of how not ready.

by Jeff Sullivan on Sep 5, 2008 6:15 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

More ready than Silva or Batista.

Seriously though, even Morrow building up as a starter in the big leagues without significant minors experience will likely be better than replacement level.

by batura on Sep 5, 2008 6:19 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I'm not really worried about whether he's better right now than our shittiest pitchers.

I’m more worried about whether this is a good idea for his confidence/development.

As long as he’s trying out different pitches, though, I’m happy. I just don’t see him practicing his change-up and slider against a lineup like the Yankees. Doesn’t seem wise for confidence-building, either.

Whatever. I’m trying to feign interest and it’s hard.

Im actually looking forward to this entire series.

Their playoff odds stand at 1.3%

I’m not sure how much more damage we can deal. They’re dead.

Manny, instead of diving back to first, pretty much stands there and gets tagged.

Nice to see Cairo hitting

He looks to be our starting 1st basemen next year whether we like it or not.

Nah

I’d say there’s only a 30% chance he’s even on the team next year…even with Chuck in charge

Morrow was never a bad pick.

We just made him a middle relief pitcher immediately. And with the combined instant success of Lincecum, Morrow looked that much more disappointing.

Morrow has always had the talent, but it only now we get to see his real debut for the future.

No, thats not it.

It because I know these idiots know nothing about Tui. And if they do, it’s just because of his damned name and they never care this much about our other, sometimes vastly superior, prospects.

You may gain some yards on the ground, but eventually Lofa will end up biting you in the ass.
