PrintTexas Rangers at Seattle Mariners, Jul 10, 2009 7:10 PM PDT
Only four guys hitting lefty in the Texas lineup tonight, and one of them is Omar Vizquel. Morrow's in a pretty good situation, here.

After last night and today, can we consider a win tonight gravy?
by SebastianPruiti on Jul 10, 2009 6:45 PM PDT reply actions
Not really, we need to at the very least split this series, and guaranteeing that tonight would be cool.

Makes sense, but I don't think a loss will make it a "buzzkill" though, just my opinion
Unless we lose in the same type of fashion from the Baltimore game two nights ago…
by SebastianPruiti on Jul 10, 2009 6:47 PM PDT up reply actions
No
We could really use two out of these last three.

Sweeney brought a friend to BP today
That’s Mount Vernon native actor Jim Caviezel out by the batting cage in the photo. He’s also known worldwide as Jesus Christ, having played him in The Passion of the Christ. A pal of Mike Sweeney’s in case you were wondering. Sweeney is a pretty avid Christian, who recently got to meet the Pope at the Vatican.That Sweeney was able to meet the Pope strikes me as both totally weird and making perfect sense.
I'll always know him from The Thin Red Line
and thats all i’ll say, getting too close to ZOMG no politics territory

Nice work Morrow
I fucking hate you Mariners
Lotta empty seats
you would think the stadium would be packed after last night…

Seattle fans are smart
They know Felix doesn’t start on consecutive nights

Well that turned around quick
I fucking hate you Mariners
Keeping the pitch count down
Did it in the first inning. More he does it, less of the bullpen we have to see.
I love that he took the first two fastball right down the middle.
But golfed the one thrown in the dirt. That man is blessed.
Its usage is restricted to appropriate context
Such as a funk blast

CHRIS BOSIO NO HITTER!
I fucking hate you Mariners
The Angels announcers were avidly bitching that Chone didn't replace Hunter as an All-Star.
As Chone stuck out looking.

I fucking hate you Mariners
Remember in the pre-season where we were like: Guti is a plus defender and if he hits it'll be gravy?
You got slurved!
Hehehe Mark Reynolds is so awesome.
I like Blalock
I fucking hate you Mariners
Blalock is back to being good this year..wow
I fucking hate you Mariners
I love having a catcher who can catch and throw in one motion...
by SebastianPruiti on Jul 10, 2009 7:36 PM PDT reply actions
I would be a lot happier if Rob could do either
regardless of how many motions it took him
by Fuckmikereilly on Jul 10, 2009 7:37 PM PDT up reply actions
Huh
Still thinking of Lopez at third?
"Not as much as we were before. No. We are still going to have him take ground balls over there but I don’t foresee it."

Unlucky...it was smashed.
I fucking hate you Mariners
I enjoy the injuries the Angels have had more than this lead.

Who does Omar have the feud with again?
by Manzanillos Cup on Jul 10, 2009 7:47 PM PDT reply actions
The one with Jose Mesa was much more of a feud
Mesa promised hit him every time he faced him. I believe he did multiple times.
by Fuckmikereilly on Jul 10, 2009 7:51 PM PDT up reply actions
I never hear anyone talk about Mike Sweeney beating on Jeff Weaver.
Nothing beats that.

Morrow has bored me....Jack, make another trade!
I fucking hate you Mariners
Morrow sucks still
I fucking hate you Mariners
I can't even imagine what I am going to do if I ever meet Michael Young
And fuck you Brandon Morrow for singlehandedly giving the Rangers first place.
I'm 100% confident he was talking about Andruw Jones.
I fucking hate you Mariners
I wish all of this was going on in Tacoma
I fucking hate you Mariners
Like a different pitch every now and then... like a change of sorts...
You got slurved!
Hehehe Mark Reynolds is so awesome.
Now I remember.
I think we should just give Morrow away. What a loser!

I don't know why the management continue to convert Morrow back to a starter...
by eri_yoshida_is_a_stud on Jul 10, 2009 7:52 PM PDT reply actions
in the majors.
Sorry i forgot this important part.
by eri_yoshida_is_a_stud on Jul 10, 2009 7:54 PM PDT up reply actions
Because they want to continue the whole plan of "How to fuck up Morrow's arm and MLB career".
The Mariner’s ownership secertly hates Morrow and wants to ruin his life.
Who do you think we should put in?
I am no longer an advocate of elaborate techniques of security analysis in order to find superior value opportunities.
Benjamin Graham -
Oh good it's looking like we're going to see 5 or 6 innings of the bullpen
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed
Because he is not confident with his stuff.
by eri_yoshida_is_a_stud on Jul 10, 2009 7:56 PM PDT up reply actions
Why should he be?
He can’t locate and he doesn’t have a plus-pitch besides his fastball.
by Fuckmikereilly on Jul 10, 2009 7:57 PM PDT up reply actions
So, to make me happier, where can I watch Felix' reaction to the Guti HR yesterday?
Everyone keeps talking about it.
Postgame interview:
“I’m definitely feeling like I’m more effective out of the bullpen. Like the atmosphere, all angry, pumped up, 300 attitude,” said Morrow while checking his blood sugar. “I think it was where I was meant to be.”
I fucking hate you Mariners
jeez I hate Morrow, because he has good stuff but is a worthless headcase
Much rather have Vargas or Olsen starting this game than dumbass Morrow.
Killed the roll from yesterday.
VArgas/Olsen would not last against this line-up.
You got slurved!
Hehehe Mark Reynolds is so awesome.
Olson is worse
Morrow could be a much better starter but let’s not overreact.
by Jeff Sullivan on Jul 10, 2009 8:06 PM PDT up reply actions
I think he should have hit a two run homer.

Benjamin Graham -
Michael Young is looking like a player who doesn't suck at defense tonight
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed
So his range sucks
but he has a cannon
by Manzanillos Cup on Jul 10, 2009 8:02 PM PDT up reply actions
He has the patented Derek Jeter
“do funny spin moves so every play I make looks better than it is” move down.
by Fuckmikereilly on Jul 10, 2009 8:02 PM PDT up reply actions
Morrow has yet to strike out a batter.
Wait you have to throw strikes to do that…
You got slurved!
Hehehe Mark Reynolds is so awesome.
Beat me to it. ;)
"You're so beautiful. You could be a part-time model, but you'd probably still have to keep your normal job."
On the bright side... Morrow won't be able to blow the save.
"You're so beautiful. You could be a part-time model, but you'd probably still have to keep your normal job."
Jesus, Morrow....
I fucking hate you Mariners
I hate you Morrow like no other
I fucking hate you Mariners
Why the fuck can't you throw strikes to Omar Vizquel?
He is the worst hitter on their team

That is your ball Cruz

Tell that to Endy.

So you wish he would have anticipated the good catch on a deep fly ball
by Jeff Sullivan on Jul 10, 2009 8:16 PM PDT up reply actions
I guess some people prefer:
“Fly ball lofted to right-center, Cruz is under it…. and IT”S GONE!

Well Sims did that yesterday on Guti's home run and this w00tah guy didn't it like it either.
Can’t please him, apparently.
It WAS crushed you idiot.
Most of us thought it was gone off the bat without the help of Sims.
And what, you don’t want your announcers to get excited?
I could tell it was some type of good play off of Rizzs on the radio
Kind of makes me feel the same as I would in the stadium, you get half out of your seat and BAM sit back down. Almost Live Sports Talk, with Seattle Mariners Broadcasters. Has the no emotion guy vs. Rizzs and Niehaus, I love this clip
It's cool watching the HR calls isn't it?
I don’t know where I found that, I think someone posted it recently
It was hit HARD and Guti has been tearin the shit out of the ball lately
You’re the one overreacting here.
Betancourt morphed into Langerhans

We really can't score in any innings other than the first, eighth, and ninth.
I don’t think we have once in like 4 or 5 games

If we someone win this game, it will be a miracle.
The Rangers are locked in on Morrow and they should have hit 10 home runs already.
Color me shocked.
"You're so beautiful. You could be a part-time model, but you'd probably still have to keep your normal job."
They are having good years.
It doesn’t have much of anything to do with the way they are pitching, though.
by Manzanillos Cup on Jul 10, 2009 8:24 PM PDT up reply actions
So I know the Rangers haven't struck out yet
but somehow they’ve done a remarkable job of making contact with some good breaking balls.
But hating Morrow is so much fun.

I dont think that's a problem for you here.

I like how you put a 0 in SCORE

If Ichiro gets on.
I think it’s time for a Branyan HR!
That was stupid.

So Ichiro does lead the league.
Nick Johnson leads the majors.

We won a game in which we scored first like 4 days ago
Remember Washburn’s gem..?
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed
If Ichiro was to be sent to the infield..
What position do you think would fit him best?
Ron Washington only put Nelson Cruz back in the lineup
when he was named to the All-Star Team.
How the fuck is this team in first place, dammit?
Has anyone ever gone to singles night?

Remember when I said I liked Jakubauskas' curveball?
Turns out it has the lowest swinging strike rate of all curveballs in the Majors.
Bloopmaster.
Sounds like something that could be sold on the Mariners Shopping Network or whatever it was called.
I'm more like I am now than I've ever been.
Considering we have Johjima, Woodward, and Cedeno coming up
It looks like another game without us scoring a single run in the 2nd – 7th inning.

The cast surrounding Griffey is pretty pathetic
by lemonverbena on Jul 10, 2009 8:50 PM PDT up reply actions
If it wasn't Griffey this team wouldn't have won a single game.
Griffey is tickling this team to greatest!
How do you make it through the season?
You must drink more than me.

Unfortunately, this is one of the few nights this season that I’ve actually been pissed.
