PrintI, for one, did not expect this. And while taking Morrow, Washburn and Vargas into New York doesn't exactly fill me with courage, who even knows what's what anymore? Get ready for some dingers!

Russell Branyan ...
pop up … into right field … all the way out of this tiny stadium. Go M’s!!!
Dingers are much better than the horrifying secret of why MLB is spying on us!
I'd rather know a little about a lot than a lot about a little
It's a damn shame the fucking Angels won't lose a god damned game or else this would be even sweeter.
But seriously, 2/3 from the Dodgers is awesome.
If we stay in it
Ichiro and Felix are going to be in the running for MVP/ Cy Young. Waka probably wins AL manager of the year.
It's between him and Sweeney
Really-good-guy Of the Year.
"You're so beautiful. You could be a part-time model, but you'd probably still have to keep your normal job."
That makes even more sense.
My bad.
"You're so beautiful. You could be a part-time model, but you'd probably still have to keep your normal job."
Waka probably would be AL Manager of the year of the Mariners made it to the playoffs.
2009 Safeco Field Record: 4-0 ; Overall Safeco Field Record: 8-4
I really hope so.
When he didn’t win it in ’04 AND Vlad won it, one of the most disappointing choices I can remember..

I think he'd be a near shoo-in if we make the playoffs.
Awaiting the day I catch a Russell Branyan foul ball. I will make love to it.

Who gives a shit about that
Sweeney for Spirit Award

I'd say Evan Longoria is still the favorite right now.
Wak, on the other hand, has to be considered front-runner for MOY. The baseball writers simply can’t resist a “take team from last place to playoff contention in first year” story.
Is that the light at the end of the tunnel, or the headlights of an oncoming train?
Just what this team needs. A series in a wind tunnel!
I bet Cedeno hits one out. I’ll bet the first person who replies a dollar.
Okay. If he doesn't hit one, I'll literally mail you one dollar.
I expect the same in return.

I'll e-mail you shortly.
Fuckin….paypal my ass.

I thought right field was where all the homers were going.

That would obviously be very good.

I would literally almost say shit
but stop myself at the last minute.

I would hope...
You would do that at least once during 9 games. Not that I care, but if you’re waiting for those kinds of situations…that can’t be healthy.

Too bad the D-Backs played HORRIBLE defense with Scherzer on the mound against freaking Palmer..
You got slurved!
Free Tommy Hanson! [FREED]! Free Jeff Clement! Free Michael Saunders!
I like how you guys think you can bait me.

Now if only the Angels would stop winning....
Seriously, though, taking 2 from the Dodgers is fucking huge.

Bahahaha K-Rod just walked Mariano Rivera with the bases loaded.

A blog-thingy about the Mariners and stuff.
IF YOU ARE GOING TO MAKE OUTLANDISH CLAIMS IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO SUPPORT YOUR ARGUMENT
The burden of proof is on the person who makes the assertion, and the wilder your assertion, the better your evidence should be. 1920 Brooklyn Robins were far more boring, and it’s not even close.
...and now I'm here
Zach Wheat and Burleigh Grimes were pretty exciting.
by Mariner John on Jun 28, 2009 11:57 PM PDT up reply actions
Zach Wheat was an overrated hack who sustained success for 19 years due to an unsustainable BABIP.
Plus, let’s not ignore the elephant in the room. A player that nearly doubles his home run rate going his age 34 season? I’m not saying he didn’t, but we can’t rule out the obvious just because we don’t like what we hear.

But.....but....
Griffey! And Sweeney! And Rob Johnson! They’re carrying the team on their backs! Through sheer willpower!

Ronny didn't earn biggest suckfest!
Ronny, TAKE
by Kirsten Schlewitz on Jun 29, 2009 8:35 AM PDT reply actions
It's a five man suckfest rotation.
Griffey, Sweeney, Cedeno, Betancourt, and Johnson all need to take their turns. Lopez sometimes makes a spot start.
Awaiting the day I catch a Russell Branyan foul ball. I will make love to it.
