In other news: Alfonso Soriano just hit the HOLY LIVING BEJEEZUS out of a baseball.
It came within 2 inches of flying out of Minute Maid Park altogether. Tied the game in the 8th inning.
That’ll teach you to rely on LaTroy Hawkins as your setup man.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
I'm as surprised as anyone. But it was only 2-1, so it's not as if they were actually HITTING or anything.

Corcoran doesn't look like he feels good about himself

For the start of the season yes
Since the upgrade to SBN 2.0 at least
Richie's greatest achievement in 2009
and i witnessed it in person
argh... 2008
but still better than anything this year for him
Agreed.
I really really want Aardsma to make me fall in love with him right now.
7 pitches in one inning!
There’s the M’s offense we know and love.
Is that the light at the end of the tunnel, or the headlights of an oncoming train?
I love Sims' funny stories
that end with the punchline of Silva sucking.
Im scared to death right now about the next six outs.. blowing this game would send me back to a year
ago, and just demoralize me
Mummy I am scared
Remember what happened game 2 last year Queens?

Thanks for making things exciting, Wlad.
It's sort of like "BRAAAAAIIIINNNSS." It could catch on, you know.

Maybe that is GMZ's idea... Felix is starter and everyone is in the bullpen. 1-3 innings a piece!
Now that is thinking outside of the box!
Dave Niehaus is making me sad.
He couldn’t tell if the ball was caught out in RF. He did something similar a couple innings earlier where he was unsure if the Twins 3B had caught or dropped the ball.

“After seeing’s Brandon implosion today I realized that we needed someone who is lights out and has control.” said Wakamastu on Morrow’s performance. “That’s why we decided to convert Felix into a closer, he has the stuff and has the bulldog attitude we like. Morrow will stay as a reliever until he can figure out his control problems”

Heh. Indeed.
If you’re wondering why Chris Jakubauskas and Shawn Kelley made the roster, perhaps we need look no further than the walk rates for the rest of the relievers – Morrow, Aardsma, Batista, Lowe, and Corcoran all struggle to throw strikes consistently, and that’s essentially the high leverage portion of the bullpen. If a starter gets in trouble and needs to be bailed out of a bases loaded situation, Wakamatsu’s options for relief range from Guy With Bad Command to Guy With Horrible Command. You’re going to see several late inning bases loaded walks this year. Given this group of relievers, it’s inevitable.

Why didn’t you send Waka that before he opened the gas can?
Throw the snacks in the bag and I'm ghost like Swayze!
Preserved In All His Greatness - R.I.P. The Reignman 1989 to 1997
Because Waka has no non-gas can options in the bullpen?
Basically, the M’s bullpen in composite = JJ circa 2004. OK, but there will be some days where they will make you take the gas pipe, because they won’t be able to throw strikes and they’ll lose games because of it.

Yes because we're not used to this at all.

Damn, I wasn't expecting someone else to have the same avatar as me on here...
Also: Fuck Brandon Morrow, he’s done nothing but anger me lately.
This is an excellent SN, by the way

I think if we win tomorrow behind Silva
all will be forgiven in my mind.
I really did forget what this felt like
And after last year, I didn’t think it could feel like this again. I hate baseball so damn much, and I always come back. Fuck…
I love baseball but hate the team that I support.
Which absolutely sucks dome.

Well yes
I too love baseball, but it always seems to kick me in the nuts.

I AM GLAD YOU HAVE DIABETES AND I HOPE IT GETS WORSE, BRANDON.

Hopefully the murderous rage subsides when I wake up.

Cards fan here
You guys should settle down, we had a lousy bullpen last year too, but you have to shake those things off. We were picked to finish at the bottom of a bad division and we were competitive all year long!

Listening to the post-game show
Some genius called in saying Bedard is not suited no be a SP and he should move to relief.

Yeah I don't either typically
But it’s on in the background and man, there is a reason I stay away from it.

Although...
Shannon Drayer is a nice change from FSN’s attempts at analysis. Normally I just turn it on mute and stare at Nicole’s Zaloumises

I wasn't expecting this team to be any good.
So .500 is OK with me. And better they find out right away if Morrow is a bust. Gutierrez looks good meanwhile, Endy Chavez, Griffey, Beltre…
ignacio
So it sounds like the mariners acted like
the mariners?
Blowing games after 8 2/3 innings of being pretty much perfect is not usually our modus operandi
Most of the time we just suck the whole way through.
Seeing as Putz was our closer the last 3 years...not really.
