Today Carlos Silva walks into the Hubert Humphrey Metrodome with the passion and ire he had back when he was a Twin.
This majestic beast is a mentor to King Felix and we must always remember that,
it’s hard to soar like an eagle when you are surrounded by someone who once ate a live turkey.

So I'd settle for a repeat of opening day Felix from the Oakland game...
I was at Shea for the Felix-Slam!

Let's just hope this doesn't turn in to the Dbacks/Rockies game today
Eight homeruns? What the hell? That ball is FLYING out today
Even more amazing when you consider five were off of Cook and Webb, GB pitchers.

All right, NOW I'm truly excited.
Matthew has given me religion: at least ONE of my teams has a remote outside 3-point-shot-from-half-court chance at competing this season. Let’s go M’s! Let’s see some King Felix and no Dauphin Felix today!
P.S. Mystery Science Theater 3000 forever, motherfucker. Random, but it had to be said.

He'll smile, share some jokes with the pitcher and lull him into a false sense of security by giving him a tie
It’s as strategic a move as you’ll find.
Probably because Sweeney kills the Twins
I know, I know, meaningless split and that’s not what Wakamatsu was thinking when he put him there. But casual Twins fans will tremble with fear when Sweeney strides to the plate.
I'll never forgive the mainstream media.
Their east coast bias kept Mike Sweeney’s amazing career from being in the limelight where it belonged. He also hit .422!

Happy Felix Day WOOO!
Sadly, I’m at a house with NO TV access! Any ideas for somewhere around Kenmore to go see the game?
Hilariously, my MLBtv player clearly decided that the Nats/Marlins game was so bad that it spontaneously switched me over to the Dodgers/Padres game.
How on earth this actually happened I have no idea.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
Glad we went out and picked up some bats in the offseason.
Player 1:
2005: 104 OPS+
2006: 96 OPS+
2007: 109 OPS+
Age 34 in 2008
Player 2:
2006: 102 OPS+
2007: 86 OPS+
2008: 99 OPS+
Age 35 in 2009
Oh well, unlike last year, when we finally cut Player 1’s ass after watching him flail at DH, we’ll have Chris Shelton backing up Player 2.

ok so i live in PA and i’m trying to watch this game online, but justin.tv dosn’t do it anymore i guess, does anyone know of any other sites where i can find the live stream for this??
I am happy I am not a Padres fan
3 pitchers I do not even recognize on there roster, most of the others have barely any experience. I mean who the fuck is Walter Silva, we have the real Silva, so this one better be fatter and throw even more awesome “fastballs”.

What's the deal with radio?
I thought they were supposed to be on FM now, but 97.3 is boring talk and 710 is pre-game.
As far as I know the only Seattle team that's going to be simulcasted on FM and AM are the Seahawks.
I think the Mariners are just on the AM side.
My visit to Yankee Stadium was literally one of the worst days of my life
I hope Jeter gets shot after the game!
I agree..I enjoyed Shea more than Yankee Stadium.

“Phenom” implies that you’re a young up-and-comer, and both of these guys have established themselves (although we can all agree Felix hasn’t reached his full potential yet).

The Traveling Wilburys have endorsed the Seattle Mariners
No other team can say that!
Harrison and Orbison are dead, Dylan would never give out an endorsement, so....
….congratulations Mariners, you’ve just been endorsed by Tom Petty and Jeff fucking Lynne.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
Dylan has endorsed Cadilacs and Victoria's Secret
aaaaand, the Mariners.
I worship at the altar of Bob Dylan, who just gets cooler with each passing year...
…so this would be awesome if it actually happened.
And you know what? Dylan’s just quixotic enough to endorse the Seattle Mariners, of all things, for no good reason. I loved when he appeared in that Victoria’s Secret ad. Sell out? Hell no, it’s just Dylan being Dylan.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
Message me sometime
or e-mail me at epbehrens@gmail.com — I adore Dylan as well, and Dylan fans deserve well. Any bootleg album or concert that you might be interested in, I can hook you up.
I'll drop you a message soon, but for the record I have pretty much every damn thing he's ever released or left unreleased
Studio outtakes, complete basement tapes, Rolling Thunder concerts, fire-and-brimstone Praise-Jesus born again shows, you name it.
(For the record, my favorite Dylan album is either John Wesley Harding or Blonde On Blonde, though it’s a coin-flip.)
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
Right on, my friend... right on
The same here.
And while it’s a cliche, my favorite has to be either Blonde on Blonde or Blood on the Tracks.
Very funny.
A great album, super underappreciated. A lot of people don’t even seem to realize it exists, you know…

Actually predicts a lot of things about the current mariners season, there is even a song called Branyan’s My Buddy, weird.
Just a heads up for people about to watch the Seattle game on MLB.TV
The HD feed is not very stable today. At all. I haven’t been able to view it properly for several hours. It is also not ‘live’ – there is up to a two minute delay on the HD feed, so if you are using it you might want to avoid boxscore/gameday/game thread.
If you are having problems with the video being jerky, disable the HD feed. You can do this by clicking on video quality at the bottom on the player and sliding the slider from ‘next def’ to ‘normal’. The quality is greatly reduced but it is far more stable and is ‘live’, so you won’t be spoilt if you want to take part in the game thread.
I was at Shea for the Felix-Slam!
Personal M's record: 5-4.
Honestly I haven't been able to detect a quality difference between the HD feed and the SD feed all day
Determined, Jonesing Commentor | Proud proprietor of Wyomingroutes.org & Washingtonhighways.org
Some feeds aren't HD. The CIN Vs NYM game was only in HD if you selected the New York feed.
Very puzzling as to why CIN wasn’t showing HD in its own stadium.

Yeah, it's nice to have a backup, considering the player is wonky as hell right now.
The picture on EI sucks, though.
So I can just go to the EI channels on my cable and it'll be showing the game?
How does that whole thing work? Is it only if my cable provider carries EI?
Yeah, just go to the channels if you have them.
Free preview for a week, I think. Mine’s on Channel 680. That’s Cox, though.
Also the default feed is the Twins one. If you want the Mariner feed click on the TV camera icon in the DVR bar and select FSNW.

So WTF
MLB.tv worked fine until now, and now none of the video feeds seem to be working and I’m stuck with the Twins radio.
You know what? Fuck you Sports Gods, fuck you.
Seriously...
Can the M’s get some kind of a waiver from MLB that would allow them to have Brandon Fahey on the field as a 10th fielder when Felix pitches? Even if he can only field balls that are fieldable by the pitcher.
Ankle deal
We’ve all rolled an ankle…and that looked like the kind that just hurts for a minute. Not a true deadly turn.
