PrintI don't know if it's too early to anoint Felix as a Big Game Pitcher, but he sure seems to enjoy big game pitching. That start was everything we've ever wanted from the King*, and after what was a pretty devastating pre-game announcement regarding Beltre, it says an awful lot that I'll be able to go to bed with a smile on my face. Felix is magic.

Why play if you know you're going to have surgery in 2 days? Couldn't you fuck it up worse?

Not really, no.
The bone spurs are kind of a constant irritant inside the shoulder, like a rock in your shoe constantly jabbing a blister. Doesn’t cause long-term damage, just hurts like hell.
I’m actually a little surprised we haven’t heard anything about cortisone injections being tried. I have bone spurs on the ball of my shoulder joint and I have a shot ever 4 months or so that really helps. When I asked about surgery instead, my doctor said the spurs “usually” come back.
It feels like giving a loved one four or five "final" embraces before he/she gets onto a plane.
Adrian doesn’t want to let go of us.
If the Mariners gave him run support every time he'd gone at least 6 2/3 and given up two or less he'd probably be 12-3.
W-L is such a stupid way to measure pitchers.

The pitching was okay...
but I wanted to see him homer again. That was really the highlight of last season.
Vin Scully called him Felix the Cat.
Ugh.

There was a local radio attempt to make that his nickname when he first came up. It didn't stick.
FSN pregame is now trying to attach Felix the cat and the big cat.
Feh.
Felix Potvin was Felix the Cat too
it’s time we try other names for Felix.

Felix the Bad Ass Mofo'n Pitcher
I’m rolling with it.
Awaiting the day I catch a Russell Branyan foul ball. I will make love to it.

King Felix. Roll with it.

Right, that's what I mean

One more good outing and I am sure he's locked his spot on the All-Star team.
2009 Safeco Field Record: 4-0 ; Overall Safeco Field Record: 8-4
If Wakefield makes it and Felix doesn't that will be awful.
Although with Wakamatsu on the staff I think its a near lock he will be on the team. I really look forward to a Felix-Pujols showdown.

I was happy when I saw Waka there.
I am hoping his presence will also get Branyan on the bench in the ASG. I was hoping for Bedard, as we all were, but that’s probably not going to happen now.

I want to know
which one of you is secretly the guy with the Porsche with the Washington plates that say “Rauuuuuul” (or however many Us it was).
I’m assuming you’re the large fellow in the RF bleachers with me who had on an Ibanez jersey.

Where can I find a set of lawn darts?
I hear they don’t make them anymore because of some people getting darts thru the skull or something.. I would love to have a set.
