Here's what I get out of a quick look at French's box score:

Pounded the zone, got hammered, managed to survive 5 innings.

Anything else I need to know?

Didn't really get hammered

Two homers but not much else. Missed nine bats.

Can we trade LAA for KC?

I’d like our division more.

I kind of wish that the AL West had 5 teams like the other divisions.

The 4 team division thing just isn’t working.

But it is the 2nd day in the row of gaining ground on the Angels.

So you know what, maybe the worst has already passed. Not quite ready to think about playoffs yet, but its nice to know that the Mariners GB aren’t in double digits yet.

Angels are due for a cold streak right?

We’ve been saying that since 2002 or so

By "yet", you mean "still", right?

I'm more like I am now than I've ever been.

Im so glad

a skunk decided to live under my house and unleash a spray so I could miss this game.

I musta used an entire Febreeze bottle. Filthy bastards.

So how did they get the cat to leave the field?

Sort of steered it towards and then into the Royals bullpen by chasing it.

They used Gutz to lure it out

since he’s a pussy magnet.

When a male chicken is loosed on the field, will Frabklin be effective in coralling that, too?

How did it get there in thefirst place?

Was it Bring Ur Cat to the Game night or something?

Apparently they've had an ongoing problem with feral cats, and have caught several of them-- just not mid-game.

Drayer said that the pitching coach’s wife called to say she’d take this one, if they’d let her.

Send them to LAofA

They’ll live like kings.

So can we say Jose has finally turner the corner

or is he going to turn around and stomp on our hearts again?

I'm not trying to jinx anything here, nor am I trying to get my hopes up,

but we have a real chance of gaining some ground this weekend. The Red Sox and Yankees play a four game series starting tomorrow, we play the Rays this weekend and the Rangers play the Angels…. This could get exciting!
