Hell yes.
Everything is Rob Johnson's fault.

At some point, Greinke must be thinking he can't make enough money to be Royal anymore
when KC is ready to deal him for some relievers, im sure Jack Z will be on the scene
Peace, Love and West Coast Hip Hop, Go Mariners!
No worries, we employ Junior as a Bradley personality buffer/Designated player
you can’t be a designated hitter until you hit, fact

I thought "Greinke" was pronounced like gr-ain-key
Which would rhyme with cranky, unless you’re one of those people who say cr-an-key instead of cr-ain-key
Ok, what does that mean? I'm always looking for good Scrabble words.

Only on a new edition called Scrabble Trickster in England.
Standard Scrabble still won’t allow proper nouns. Unless, of course, you play by your own rules. Which can be fun.
Nah.
They announced it and everyone freaked out, but it was clarified to be only in a special edition, and only in the U.K. At least for now. (The rights to Scrabble in North America and Europe are owned by different companies.)
My daughter and I usually play by our own rules. Anything
that’s a word gets a pass, but nothing less than five letters long can be put on the board. It’s a lot of fun!

Take away from all this is that Greinke is like orange and purple,
no real English rhyming words. Sucks for him. No poetry.

Greinke is pronounced

Good to see the bullpen hold the lead.
Too many guys were ripping on Griffey and Sweeney, but the bullpen blew 3 games during the losing streak.
I really wish this was flagable.

Wow we needed this win.
Bradley looking better. Even though Moore wasn’t great he saw some pitches and I though did pretty well. If we can win tomorrow I’m going to be feeling really good with Lee coming back.
Everything is Rob Johnson's fault.
And that AB where he lined out to right was great.
Good approach, good swing, unfortunate result.
I was very encouraged tonight. Plus I heard his post game interview...He uses "obviously" like a lot.
Now I have a keyword to use with him.

Both Figgins and MB got some good at bats tonight.
They are key to the success of the M’s this year. Hopefully, Figgins hit in the 9th is the start of him getting out of his slump.
Not sure about that
In the postgame on the radio it was mentioned that he has huge splits right now. His ‘slump’ is really just against right handed pitchers, he’s doing find against lefties. I’m pretty sure that hit in the 9th was again against a lefty, so it isn’t really any different.
Unfortunately.
by Snuffleupagus on Apr 27, 2010 9:07 PM PDT up reply actions
Ya his splits are incredible. Although Ichiro isn't hot against lefties. I wonder if they should trade off the leadoff spot for lefties and righties.
Would be interesting to try.

I wonder Figgins is ever tempted to not switch hit
I might try to see if this is usual for him. He’s hitting so much better from the right side of the plate, I think it’d be tempting to stay there.
by Snuffleupagus on Apr 27, 2010 9:10 PM PDT up reply actions
Well, thanks. I didn't want to know that. I wanted it to be a legitimate slump that
he was coming out of. (Please excuse that preposition).

Holy shit Gutz saw 33 pitches tonighe. Thats 12 more than anyone else.
I love you Sex.

And the at bat where he saw only 3 pitches he got a hit
It seems that whenever pitchers try to pound the zone on him, he makes them pay. This looks like signs of a dangerous hitter.
Yeah he had an amazing night at the plate
Big reason we got Greinke out of there after 7

Can someone explain what happened on that Lopez infield hit for me?
Roommate was watching the end of the Cleveland Cavaliers game when it happened.
This is the weirdest double I've ever seen.
And I love Lopez’s face as he’s taking his batting gloves off.
God that was awesome.

It was the doiliest doily of them all.
"Why did he run when I was going to throw him out?"

by Slow Country on Apr 27, 2010 8:59 PM PDT up reply actions
It was the original definition of doily. I'm thinking this is exactly what Jeff had in mind.
by TrustBaseball on Apr 27, 2010 9:12 PM PDT up reply actions
Except the original definition of doily was about runs, not hits.
So, no, not really. The run that scored on it is a doily; the hit itself is not.
Anybody have video
of Milton doing the fake ball toss?
I missed this
Is it like what Ichiro did last season?
Exactly, fake throw to the fans in New York.
Then, he tried to throw it to an M’s fan, but KC fan caught it. He came back out of the dugout to give the M’s fan another ball. Classy guy.
by TrustBaseball on Apr 27, 2010 9:18 PM PDT up reply actions
I used to have a gif of the Ichiro one, don't know what happened to it.
Jeff probably has it, since I’m sure I got it from him.
Millton's was almost better, because although faked the throw,
he kept it in his hand.

hahaahahahahah
Saving that. Thank you thank you.
I liked how Bradley tossed his bat when he walked in the winning run
He was like “pft you bore me”
So what happens to Snell now?
I don’t suppose his number will come up again before Lee’s back. He definitely seems to be the team’s worst starter right now.
Yeah, their walk rate was waaay to Lowe.
Hard work never killed nobody, but I won't take my chances.
This is both a bad pun and the wrong form of 'too'

So a Mexican and a 12th century Prostitute walked into a bar.
They told the bartender they would love a drink, but they had no money to pay for it. The bartender said “tell you what, if you have something somewhat sugary and bland, I’ll give you the drinks for free.” The prostitute fiddled around in her pockets and came out with this tiny rectangular shaped candy. She then muttered something to the bartender. The bartender asked “What did she say?” The Mexican responded: “Ho say, ‘lo PEZ.’”

He's off to the bullpen.
Fister and Vargas remain in the rotation.
I was going to say, that Hyphen was probably the one with the short leash, but
I didn’t want to take anything away from the relief people are probably feeling tonight.

Wak already said RRS isn't coming out of the rotation when Lee comes back
by BrettJMiller on Apr 27, 2010 9:41 PM PDT up reply actions
Right, but I think it's going to depend on how well we fare overall in the Battle for
Grass Creek. Snell can get himself out of trouble. RRS may be in the rotation, but if we don’t win the battle tomorrow, I’m not sure how long they’re going to stick with him.
by TrustBaseball on Apr 27, 2010 9:47 PM PDT up reply actions
I'm with you Ian didn't suck tonight.
His mind was probably on his dead aunt during his last start. What’s RRS’s excuse for his semi-awful start in Chicago?
by TrustBaseball on Apr 27, 2010 10:02 PM PDT up reply actions
Being a fly ball pitcher in Chicago?
Though he wasn’t sharp I agree. I just think it’s too early to write off Rowland-Smith. But I irrationally love the guy so meh.
by Mariner John on Apr 27, 2010 10:17 PM PDT up reply actions
I'm going to agree with you too.
We’re in a tough spot, when we can’t figure out which of our #3,4, or 5 pitchers should be in the bullpen. Plus, we’ve got Bedard coming back at some point. Ouch! Hurt me some more.
by TrustBaseball on Apr 27, 2010 10:24 PM PDT up reply actions
Yeah, it's definitely a good problem to have.
Hopefully RRS can redeem himself tomorrow.
