With all our pitchers tired out from today surely tomorrow we will have to resort to having a position player pitch

I'm glad you clarified
I thought you meant Ichiro from Aberdeen

Olson and Tits?
I’m so excited I can’t contain myself.
Did you fall in love with Miguel Batista? And he rejected you?
Tomorrow is either going to be a complete bashing, or a very pleasant surprise.

I am so glad I'm not the only one who still HATES him.

You two, and 58% of Mariners fans who vote on post-game polls.

Rob Johnson. Then he can really call the game.

I was too busy looking at the shadow
I know it, its just, it looks so artsy, and this late after a couple of tylenol PM’s I figured it was an album cover or something…

I've never seen a WP chart that looked more like the EKG of a man having an epileptic seizure.

Had I been hooked up to an EKG when Sweeney kept arriving at the plate in extra innings, you would have been amazed.

One great thing about Wak is that he is canny and flexible.
I expect Sweeney to make less appearances or be moved way down in the order (not No. 9 before Ichiro though, hopefully).
With guys like Hargrove, they would be the last guys in the whole fucking world to realize that someone was cooked and done with. And last by a big margin like 3 weeks.

I fail to understand how a classic 70's psychadelic album affects Chris Snelling.
Too loud, broke his ears?

Sound waves at certain frequencies will shatter glass.

Goodbye last year
One more win, we have matched our win totals from last year. Yay. In Wak we trust.

Had a great time at the game.
I am really exhausted, but I am glad I stuck it out to the end.

Imagine how shitty you'd feel if Rob Johnson had airmailed that pickoff throw into left field!

Perhaps we need to rethink the "No Calcium" rule with our minor leaguers.

They just need some Malk.

The Yanks
are pretty banged up today (Jeter fouled one off his foot and left the game early, Posada got hit by an large array of pitches, Melky’s hit like a pitcher since hitting for the cycle) and they’re starting to save Joba Chamberlain’s inning so it appears they’ll start both Sergio Mitre and Chad Gaudin this weekend. looks like the Ms catch them at a good time. as well as you could without Felix going anyway.
Seeing a lot of Jose Molina / Ramrio Pena / Jarry Hariston Jr. / Eric Hinske / Chad Gaudin / Sergio Mitre is usually good news.

Interesting Chart Line
Total Contribution by Pitcher(s): +114.1%
So it is actually possible to give 110%? I thought that was just a stupid sports cliche. No question about it, I’m just glad those guys went out and played hard, didn’t pay attention to anything said by the media/blogs, and showed a lot of character.
This team has finally learned how to win.

So Johnson's snap throw was 26.2% - what were the values of each passed ball, and his DP?
Let’s quantify this sumbitch! Short of a double, HR, steal or Irish jig, we saw pretty much everything Rob could possibly do. Last night’s game should be the baseline for any comparisons you want to do against any M’s catcher…
OK, looking purely at the defensive side of the equation
The PBs, one WP and one steal by Beckham, the dropped third strike on one hand and the snap throw on the other (FG has it at 25.8%), Johnson nets out at a +8.2%.
