Why won't our pitchers throw strikes to Nick Green

Does anyone think "The DA" will ever get a 6-out save?

Well, we can avoid throwing strikes to Green, so this will be extra-fun.

It's going to be fucking horrible watching fans that were at one point doing the wave
cheering a walk-off :(
Fuck Anaheim.

Or does Papelbon look like Ricky Schroeder with crazy eyes?

Really stupid throw by Green.

Wasn't it Green who made a terrible error earlier in the year against us that cost them the game?
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed
He's secretly a double agent employed by us
That “cup of coffee” in 2007 was just a formality.
Just keeping up appearances
Could have been a home run to put them ahead, but he decided to just tease Boston.
I’m on to you, Nick Green.
OK, I intensely dislike Papelbon as much as the next Ms fan...
But why are people getting all worked up over him saying he wouldn’t mind playing for the Yankees in the future?
Seriously “Red Sox Nation”, all of MLB isn’t all wrapped up in this rivalry of yours. Let the guy play wherever the hell he wants. If the yankees offer him the best contract, so be it.
I understand that...
But if I remember correctly, I don’t think he was the one that brought up the whole “Yankees” part of it. I blame it on the paranoid Sox media making sure their precious players don’t ever wanna go over to “the dark side”.
Strap in kids,
we’re going to out-do this one tonight.

God I really hope they plunk Nick Green
He is the last person I want to see hitting a walk-off against us
I'm not the only one softening up to Ronny Cedeno am I?

I didn’t see anything until the last three innings. That good today, but lately it has been painful.

Someone posted a video of a player swinging at a pitch during an IBB
but I cannot for the life of me think who the player was.
I think it might have been a game-winner too. It was definitely an RBI.
Fuck Anaheim.
He's so selfish.

Mutton Chops in!

Mutton chops?
Someone needs to shop Lowe’s face on the Chester A. Arthur’s head in that case.

Drayer talked to Kelley pregame
He doesn’t have a nickname yet, he’s working on a Spartan helmet, and he left the pink backpack in Seattle (it was at the stadium, he was in Tacoma, and the flight left in 2 hours) and so was expecting to pay for that.

Rob Johnson: Felix didn't have his offspeed pitches working early on:
He threw 13 four seamers in his first 14 pitches. You had no idea what his offspeed stuff was like.
I've heard that sometimes a catcher will judge how well each pitch is working for the pitcher during the warm-up pre-game and call pitches accordingly.
I’m not sure it means anything, but I’ve heard about it.

Mariners: Hernandez returns to the scene of one of his best career starts — a one-hitter against the Red Sox at Fenway Park three years ago — on a big-time roll. The ace right-hander has surrendered five earned runs in his past 53 innings, striking out 51 over that span. His two-seam fastball has been his bread-and-butter pitch, and rookie catcher Rob Johnson has not been shy about calling for it.

It was 99MPH so the Ump could be fucking blind and never saw it.

by msb on Jul 3, 2009 7:44 PM PDT up reply actions
Yeah he did
On the postgame show they asked a bunch of players who they thought was the most good looking guy on the team and Branyan said Gutierrez. Guti won the fanpoll too.
The best part was when they asked them where they would rank themselves, and Corcoran said something to the effect of “I’m down, way down [on the list]. My body is just…..a mess. It’s bad…..real bad.”.

I'm still in awe we got Ryan Langerhans for Mike fucking Morse.
"Part, fools!
Put up your swords. You know not what you do."
Yeah,
but Morse was pretty useless. At the worst we got someone with a decent bat for the latter part of the lineup and with some above average defensive skills.

3-1 against the Cock Sox
And 4-3 on the trip. Get one on the weekend and we just rocked a winning record on the trip from hell.
What the fuck are you talking about?
It is a 9-game road trip and we only play three games against the Red Sox.
Haha!
If I texted, I would have a conundrum, definitely…

I didn’t listen to the postgame show. But I did respond to the Twitter question by saying “darn tootin”. Not radio material, I wouldn’t think.

~I "write" about the Mariners. section331.com~
I still don't think Youk catches that ball.
That being said, any game where we win thanks to 3 Rob Johnson doubles is kind of a fluke.
In other news, McOwen extends his streak to 40 games in the 9th! I don’t know if anyone else is even interested, but if he gets to 45, it’ll be the longest professional streak since the 1954.

I now regret turning this game off in the bottom of the 10th. :(
I was at Shea for the Felix-Slam!
Personal M's record: 5-4.
So seriously I could understand if Ronny hit that homerun off of a 95 mph fastball or something
Since much of the energy would be coming from the pitch itself and would explain where the distance came from.
But that was a mid-60’s knuckleball. And it was low and inside and had a ton of break on it. What the hell Ronny..
It's almost as if the M's are angry with what Jeff said about the 400+ foot bombs...
