MORROW UP NOW

You know he’s good because it’s so rare that the Mariners use a #1 pick on a reliever.

by pmc47 on Apr 6, 2009 7:17 PM PDT reply actions  

Well his command was kinda spotty

But overall a pretty decent start for Felix.

Felix did damn fine tonite

I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me.

I'm starting to fall in love with Franklin Gutierrez

And not that kind of lusting love or infatuation. No, this could be the really thing, diary. Do you think he notices me? Probably not. Oh well.

A Griffey HR, a walk, and Felix domination:

as long as Morrow doesn’t blow it royally I don’t know if there is anything else I could ask for.

As a result, some of the Seattle community, especially the stats-orientated blogs, has been known to call him by sarcastic nicknames including “Wee Willie,” “Ballgame,”2 “The Ignitor,”3 “Effin,” “WFB,”4 “WMFB,” “W2008FB,” “The Spork,” “Princess Willie,”5 and “Willie Boom-Boom.”

of course they walked griffey

it’s the only way to avoid the home run after inputting in the left-left-right-right-right-left-left code.
