Time to be worried about Figgins is when?
Try not to take me too seriously
Watching Ichiro run for days
Seems like it might get old, Blowers. But, it is Ichiro, so I guess it would be interesting.
It looks like the scouting report on Figgins is "Throw Strikes"
Take away the walks and he’s helpless

We finally have a few baserunners, we just had two batters walk in the inning and Lopez, who’s been pretty terribad when there’s runners on base this year, swings at the first pitch and gets out. It’s understandable in my opinion.

Honestly I don't understand just giving up the steal at this point
A three-run lead seems a little too tight to not even try and throw him out
Yeah, it makes no sense to me either.

Then not tag on a marginal fly ball? what was the fucking point of stealing 3rd then….. And kotchman should have tested someones arm and tried to score in the 7th after RJ’s double… This 3rd base coach= super conservative lately

And he would have been thrown out by 5-10 feet if he went on the fly ball? And Kotchman would have been out by 89 feet (had to increase it)

Maybe when they call the pen for Shawn, Sean assumes it's him and then Wetteland never specifies,so Shawn sits back down because he doesn't want to make things awkward.

I'm thinking sell high on Kotchman and buy low on Berkman.
The Astros are looking for dingers, too. No way they can say no to a Kotchman/Berkman swap!
My opinion of his defensive prowess is formed strictly from listening to the radio.
So in sense, you could say a blind man can tell he sucks at defense.
Okay seriously
I know as Seattle sports fans there’s a certain amount of pessimism that comes along for the ride, but lately the amount of it in the gamethreads has been excessive.
