That's not a finger and you know it.
You got slurved!
Free Tommy Hanson! Free Jeff Clement! Free Michael Saunders!
I just played a softball game that went similarly like every game the Mariners have lost this year.
Except we can’t sell everyone when we suck
Sadder thing is.
The last 20 batters were retired.

Sometimes it's like you say the opposite of what you mean.
...and now I'm here
I can live with this game
because in it Morrow gifted us the double wank.
The best part is the security cop slowly turning his head, as if he's asking himself, "he's not making fun of me, is he?"
Is that the light at the end of the tunnel, or the headlights of an oncoming train?
EVACUATE THE PLANE...IT'S CRASHING!!
I fucking hate you Mariners

I blame this loss on Ichiro, who was too selfish about his stats to not steal home.
Is that the light at the end of the tunnel, or the headlights of an oncoming train?
This isn't singling you out but can we please let the Ichiro being selfish jokes die a little bit?

Benne hurts the website by overusing already dead memes.

Duly noted.
My tendency to overuse memes isn’t helped by the fact that I’m rarely sober while participating in game threads.
Is that the light at the end of the tunnel, or the headlights of an oncoming train?
What if you aren't joking?
I really do think he should have just said “Aww fuck it.” and stolen home.
Fear the NPE
Everybody else is this year.
There’s been, what… about a half dozen thefts of home so far this year?
Hey, I met you!
I enjoyed that part of the game, at least.

After sleeping on it I stand by my desire for Yuni to not swing.
I also do not believe my expressing said desire for him to not swing has in any way created a difficult workplace for the Mariners.
What you said.

So on a scale of one to Wainwright, how happy should I be that Rob Johnson has suffered (what I can only assume is) a painful injury?
You should be Betancourt.
Happy as a retarded monkey with a lifetime supply of bananas.

Washburn was pretty cool about getting fucked by his teamates tonight.
“I feel I should have made a better pitch against Markakis,‘’ Washburn said. "I’ve been nails against lefties all year. I’ve got a couple of lefties coming up right there with guys in scoring position, and I didn’t do the job. I make pitches right there in that inning and they don’t score, we’re still playing."
via Geoff Baker
Fear the NPE
I've personally never heard him really place blame on other players for anything
Will Ferrell once said, "Get up you crazy black man, I'm gonna make you drink my piss!"
Washburn spends a lot of time around school buses.
I imagine he could charter a few to run over Joh.
Me either...
except that whole Japanese catcher/want my own catcher deal.
By the way, was searching for the jpeg of him throwing Kenji under the bus, I found the Jeff knife thread. Still funny
Even though I know opinion of Washburn is low around here.
I feel bad for the guy. I know wins as a statistic is pointless, but the guy deserves some sort of reward for his pitching. I can’t find Washburn’s tRA, but he has been pretty solid.
Why haven't we traded him yet?
I actually bought a Betancourt t-shirt.
The last time he had any run support was his penultimate year as an Angel...
what else is there to say at this point?

Wak's after game comments
“It’s an awful shame to squander a pitching performance like that by Washburn. ..” Seattle manager Don Wakamatsu
Wak, get a clue already. You’re the numskull who’s batting Yuni and Beltre behind Ichiro.
It was a goshdam waste of some nice pitching again, for the upteenth time.
If Yuni and Beltre are still in those spots tomorrow, I feel that my basic like for Wakamatsu will turn to dislike.
Meh, Wak can only use what he's given to work with.
Tom Tango said somewhere on The Book Blog that the difference between the worst ordered lineup and the best ordered lineup is 10-15 runs per season, or less than 0.1 runs per game. Wouldn’t have made a lick of difference where they hit – we’d still get shut down by the creepiest guy of the year (Hill). Wakamatsu’s gotta play Yuni so GMZ can unload him, while Beltre’s still about an average player even with his atrocious hitting because his defense is so stellar – and no matter where you put them, they’ll hurt you, but they both need to play if they are to be traded this year.
The batting order doesn't really matter that much.
There’s an immense lack of hitting talent on this team. It’s not Wak’s fault.
he's saving baseball quietly this time

If Wak insists on bunting early in the game, it's probably best to use his shittiest hitter.
In summary: Fuck.
Incredibly, there is absolutely no way Yuniesky Betancourt is the worst hitter among the starters
in fact, he may not even be the second-worst
In fact, I'm going to kill myself right now.

I don't know if you heard, but I hate this team and am going to kill myself. Just b t dubs.

How is it possible
that this loss feels worse than Sunday’s? Sunday’s was a complete feeling of oncoming disaster, but this…this was just a slowly deflating tire all the way from start to finish. You know it’s gonna be flat, and yet you can’t stop it.

Yeah, that is pretty brutal

Also, I was ready for Aardsma to have a meltdown
as he was overdue. So that didn’t bother me that much. It wasn’t as bad, either, as Morrow, because was hopefully going to be good and Aardsma’s just a reasonable pro who puts in a day’s work.
ignacio
So, in a competition of the creeps, who wins?
Vicente Padilla had that necromancer look. You just know he’ll be the one to raise the Army of the Dead and use it to rise to ultimate power. Rich Hill looks like you’d find him outside your window on a stormy night with a frying pan, some steak sauce, and a hankerin’ for some of your left thigh.
Bye, Jeffie!

but Adam Jones had that zombie thing going last year as well.

Waiting to see what sort of haul Z brings in via trade isn't doing it for you?
That is the thing I am looking forward to the most.
by jimmylauderdale on Jun 2, 2009 9:41 AM PDT up reply actions
I really don't ever care about trade speculation or drafts or anything
no matter how good the FO is. Unlike Bavasi, I trust that Z knows what he’s doing, and that’s as far as I need to take it – speculation annoys me.

yeah, you seem to have a lot to spare
what do you weigh, about 74 pounds?
Nice Guys Finish Third - My semantics are a waste of time.
I carry a lot of guilt and anger in my lower torso and upper thighs.
Not many people realize this, but there is a lot of mass in both of those making me much heavier than I look.
We were having a serious discussion about Sec 108's problems with guilt eating and you go and do that.
Way out of line.
Yay another sub-thread winds up in penis land.
Least when the boat sinks he has a built in rudder for his built in flotation device. Very efficient of him.
Oh, the speculation is horribly annoying
I just look forward to the end result.
