I must have missed that one.
It sounds absolutely enthralling though.
Bonzer.
Well, I’m off to sit on the bus, where I’ll get to heat Rizzs tell me more about sharing a hometime with Curtis Ganderson.

If Olson allows Gerald Laird to do something positive, I will never forgive him.
~I'm on the DA~
What's up with Olson's Hollywood Hulk Hogan beard?

Over/Under on Olson crying in the dugout?

That's not how over/unders work.
But I’ll take the over.
Oops. Forgot the number.
Major fail. Let me think on it.

You mean on the time it takes him to cry?
Over/under has to be a number
He won't cry.
He’ll blame Kenji. Then request that Rob Johnson be his personal catcher for the rest of the season.
Fuck you Cubs - you could have sold Olson to the glue factory, but now we get the extra cash.

I wonder how Olson feels about pitching to Johjima these days...
You have to think that it’s crossed his mind, what with the three best starters favoring Rob, that perhaps it would be worth it to experiment with a catching change of his own.
But I wonder if he feels pressure to stay with Kenji, because others have deserted him and Olson represents one of few opportunities for Kenji to play. Or perhaps demanding a personal catcher when you are a borderline major leaguer is like demanding a new 35" flatscreen monitor when you are a brand new intern.
On the other hand, Olson may be perfectly content. He might be a faithful LL reader who believes that all this talk of intangibles is the product of sportswriters with too much time on their hands.
You just have to wonder, when all the starters around you are fleeing Kenji like those little people who jump out building windows and run away in the old Sega game Rampage, how that might affect your confidence in your catcher.

No, we'd be better off loading them for Lopez

by seattlebruin on Jul 21, 2009 4:45 PM PDT up reply actions
Just got here.
So I guess Olson finally started looking like how he’s supposed to, eh?
"Part, fools!
Put up your swords. You know not what you do."
As it stands right now it should be Bedard.
I’m excited, I also decided to spend the extra money to buy tickets not in the LF bleachers. Never sat in RF before, I think I’ll be in section 108.
Yeah
I’m with most of you. Morrow sucks! Lets stick with Olson. Fucking retards. RRS better get called up soon.

The really shitty thing is that we'll probably scrape together like 5 or 6 runs tonight
And still lose

So..
Do you think we could trade Olson to the Braves for two gum wrappers and a shoelace? Or is two a bit much?
by Pessimistic Optimist on Jul 21, 2009 4:52 PM PDT reply actions
I kinda want this to get into deep blowout mode
so we can see Ichiro pitch.
Yeah sure Olson sucks
But that jawline is chiseled from granite
After giving up homeruns to Magglio and Polanco
I was kinda looking forward to seeing if Olson would let Adam Everett hit one out too.
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
PLEASE BE OK

We appreciate your nostalgia, Gutz
But reprising Griffey’s injury isn’t going to bring 1995 back.

Yeah, so I feel a wash of hopeless despair submerging me in its icy, soporific clutches.
I don't know how to stop.
Dislocated shoulder
I dislocated my shoulder almost exactly like that. I needed surgery and a lot of rehab.
Hopefully I’m wrong, but that is how the arm hangs after a traumatic dislocation. On the other hand, his arm wasn’t really out enough. Perhaps a separated shoulder or a broken shoulder or collar bone?
by spittle8 on Jul 21, 2009 5:04 PM PDT reply actions 1 recs
I agree.
I’m no MD, but his shoulder was hanging low and forward. Dislocated shoulder is probably best case scenario.
by FlaskInSafeco on Jul 21, 2009 5:29 PM PDT up reply actions
This is really bad.
When I blew my shoulder out it was absolutely FUBAR and I wasn’t in nearly as much pain and I am not a professional athlete. Hopefully it’s just something lame like a fractured arm that’ll heal fine.
Holding his left arm...leaving the game
Oh yay…Balentien’s in. That’s a nice like a-bajilion drop to team WAR.
We will beat the Angels in a one game playoff.
2009 Safeco Field Record: 5-0 ; Overall Safeco Field Record: 9-4
Before getting into a rochambeaux contest, I'd suggest icing down your nuts first.
This will cause them to retreat up into your body cavity and reduce the chances of them being ruptured. Just a suggestion
I feel like it.

Swear to god
Someone started playing taps outside my house within seconds of Guti going down…
It's funny how literally no one in the world gives a shit about this game.
Dave seems absolutely shaken.
Some cruel bitch of a customer just came in here as the replay was playing
I was seeing it for the first time and feeling horrible, and she started laughing. I’ve never, in my life, felt compelled to hit a woman until that moment. Fuck, I am stewing over it
I want to poop at your house - Thingray
Like the guys that buy a PPV boxing fight and talk shit about the fighters
No honor in laughing at an athlete for putting his heart on his sleeve.
I am going to open the package, shake his little, tiny head...

A month or more seems more likely at this point
It looked really bad
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed
I didn't see it.
My point is with all the holes in this team Gutz being on the DL for any amount of time will kill any chance of a post season. Unless someone has a can of magic laying around.
Come on M's!
Lets score a rare 10 runs and win one for Guti!

What do we know about Seattle under Wakamatsu?
They value defense? Nope, they won’t give up
The announcer said that
but I realized a lot of you have the SEA feed, im on Detroits
Probably not
but he has lost all energy from his voice. It’s pretty disheartening to listen to.

You know it's bad when he starts talking about the economy.
I'm more like I am now than I've ever been.
I wanna puke...
This game is a steaming pile of horseshit.
That’s all.
Did they add a fourth outfield position or are you bouncing one of our best players?
by Kenny Knows Sports on Jul 21, 2009 5:19 PM PDT up reply actions
Maybe we can pull a Dodger..
And win without one of our best players.

Garret Olson has a tattoo on his ass that reads, "Owned."
Curiously, only the letters “wned” sit on his right buttock.
Illegible
I have never seen/heard the announcers this sad over a injury before. Both Daves are on pins and needles.
Be okay Gut!
That diddn't look good...

So.....
Is there a contender that needs from LH pop? Branyan should now be available.
Yes.
Branyan is going to chase the cash. This off-season will be his one and only shot at cashing in. He’d be a fool not to.
Not even Sims' hat can cheer me up :(
Fuck Anaheim.

And he hits a home run.

No way to tell how long she is going to be out.
He was hurting though. Down for 10 minutes or so.

If the Mariners can get this game to a 2-run deficit, I'll rethink their possibility of winning the game.
Until then, I’m just going to sit here shaking thinking about Gootz and being thankful that at least he wasn’t taken off the field by truck.

Guti update. Left knee and elbow contusions, X-rays on the elbow were negative. He is day to day.3 minutes ago from web
If Seattle ends up winning,
this could become the most bipolar game thread ever.
And I'm a fool for not thinking of that.
My apologies.

Remember when Edgar hit that double? Didn't Griffey score from first?
I'm more like I am now than I've ever been.
Pretty much, the radio guys were kind of yammering about nothing. It isn't mentioned very often
Pretty rare, I liked it as much as his grand slam
There were a bunch of swinging strikes, and one foul tip.
And Dan Uggla was so traumatized by the experience that he commited an error during the next inning.
50!
I'm sure he is sore and wouldn't like it very much.
Well not being gay and all.

Sims just called Gutz "By far the best player the Mariners have"
I dont know how I feel about that. The “by far” may be a bit much.
For the record, it's a very close 1-2-3
