They have Beckham waiting

and he’ll be better than Brignac (probably). They do not need Brignac.

I'm not so sure about these Blue Jays fans...

Assuming they’re from British Columbia, you know, which isn’t all that far from Seattle, why are they rooting for a team on the other end of the Country? Do they just think they’re nationalist or being extremely Patriotic or what? Stuff like this bugs me, its SERIOUS business.

after those blowout losses. Way to stick it to em, guys.

This would be a fitting end to Washburn's career as a Mariner

Terrible run support throughout his tenure, capped off by the bullpen blowing it in his last game.

A fitting end to his Mariner career

would be him giving up 7 runs then complaining about run support and throwing Kenji under the bus.

Seems like a loss here would just make it easier to justify the trade to players

MLBTR is really, really good at what it does.

And what it does is collect links about ideas that probably won’t happen but are interesting to think about. Reading it is fun. Thinking that what you read is going to happen is a bad idea. And reading the comments is a flat-out awful idea.

If anyone cares....

Kazmir sat at 92-93 today….

But I somehow doubt that the Rays would have let him throw 113 pitches if he was out the door.

by PLU Tim on Jul 28, 2009 10:15 PM PDT reply actions  

Wash had 102. Not as bad but still quite a bit.

Are you saying that we’re not going to trade him?

by Coach Owens on Jul 28, 2009 10:17 PM PDT up reply actions  

Ok...

Washburn doesn’t have an extensive injury history….

by PLU Tim on Jul 28, 2009 10:19 PM PDT up reply actions  

Ok you win....

Any team looking at an oft injured pitcher that is being thrown in as a salary dump should be elated to have him ridden for 113 pitches….

Well shoot...

why were we idiots by pull Bedard after 80? I’m sure he had 30 more left in him. Would have sent a solid message to the league.

by PLU Tim on Jul 28, 2009 10:27 PM PDT up reply actions  

He was hurt and ineffective

Kazmir was neither, and that game was very important to the Rays to boot. They’re also still in a pennant race.

From Stone
Here’s what manager Don Wakamatsu said: “I just found out. I’m sitting here trying to get out of a four-game losing streak. If anything happens, I trust our organization in Jack Zduriencik’s hands. I don’t know any details beyond he was pulled,”

I don’t think we’re getting any news tonight.

And it seems that he trusts Jack and Jack trusts him. That’s important.

Salk is good...

but he’s been on the “What are we going to do about 2010 without Washburn!! We need to re-sign him!!!” kick that the rest of the Seattle media has been on.

by PLU Tim on Jul 28, 2009 10:53 PM PDT up reply actions  

But he's been really fair when others call in to argue that Washburn should be traded.

I don’t expect radio personalities to be perfect. The fact that he’s willing to listen to other schools of thought and admit that they’ve got a lot of merit is a huge improvement over what the Seattle market used to have.
