18-28, Chart
Biggest Contributor: Josh Wilson
Biggest Suckfest: Ichiro Suzuki
18-28 is still an awful record, but this is the team's chance to get back into the divisional race. Over their next 14 games, six are against the Angels and four are against the Rangers (the other four are against Minnesota). The Mariners need to make up ground during these next two weeks. They absolutely have to.

Lets win the Lee/Kazmir, Felix/Saunders games please to start with and hope for the best on Saturday.
One game at a time!
Why is Ian Snell starting on Saturday. Pretty stupid managing not to skip him with these recent
days off
The website just has projected matchups given the order.
Usually if they change it, the website doesn’t change until the day of. There is still the possibility Wak shuffles it around.

He threw out a runner at home.
I’ll take it.
Are you in an abusive relationship with the Seattle Mariners?
Ichiro is in a mini-slump.
But it’s good to know that the Mariners can still win games despite Ichiro going 0 for 9 over these last two wins.

I predict this chart will also double as

Now we are only 7 - 17 since Cliff Lee came back!

I really think that we should look at time with Milton on the roster and time without him
I think that would give a better viewpoint. My observation says the team plays better with him around
Mild calf strain, will be re-evaluated tomorrow

Mythbusters tested that to see if it's possible to "literally" tear the cover off the ball.
Answer: Yes, but only when the bat and ball have a closing speed greater than 400 miles/hour.
I like using semi-colons; they make me feel smart.
One more reason I love Mythbusters

You can also "tear the cover off the ball" if it's been used about a thousand times.
I did that to an old softball one time in practice. We had a pool for who would be the one to finally make it explode.

The plastic/vinyl baseballs are a lot easier to do this to
I find a bunch in the buckets at the school where I coach and frequently shell the street outside of the field with them. Eventually I’ll get one of those damn cars
Huh
I stopped following gameday to do chores (play Red Dead Redemption) and came here to look at what I believed was going to be an awfully sad chart.
I’m pleasantly surprised!
You have an odd definition of "chores".
"Fights begin, finger prints are took, days is lost, bail is made, court dates are ignored, cycle is repeated."
Well I said I would do chores, but just after fifteen minutes of RDR

I can't play for just 15 minutes.
I start playing a video game, then three hours later I end up taking a break to pee.

We NEED to sweep Anaheim 6-0 and Texas 4-0.
Especially Texas. Need to get back in this in a hurry by trade time, or sell.
I dunno about that
But I’d say they need to go something like 10-5

Sorry.
I was being a bit sarcastic due to what I believed to be some hyperbole. But yes they do need to get hot right now.
We probably shouldn't be getting ahead of ourselves here
It is the Mariners after all

Does it matter much?
It doesn’t matter what we did back in 95 or 01, if we did sweep them at all back then, how would that be any sort of indicator of future success?
He's not really making a predictive statement.
...and now I'm here
Went to that game and it was great
good thing my mom knows head of security.
5 MORE YEARS OF FELIX!
A come from behind win in the eighth? Wheee!
Yay for day games and my little Radio Shack transistor radio.

Mike Sweeney's hot streak is getting a little crazy
I don’t think anyone on earth saw this coming. He will definitely come back to earth but its going to take a while and his overall stat line will probably still look pretty decent by the end of the year. Its going to be interesting to see how the rest of his season goes. If he can stay decently hot for a month or two and we are out of contention we might even trade him for a decent product. After this hot streak I don’t imagine him getting benched too often unless he gets hurt (likely). Still crazy and I can’t help but shake my head in amazement when thinking about his recent performance.
He is a streaky hitter, he is hitting now like he was in ST. Like all streaks, it will end, it's just nice that it actually happened.
I still have no faith in him dishing out anything but hugs.

It's fun to watch a streaky hitter, because you never know when it will come to an end.
I’d like Mike Sweeney to end on an up note; let him have one last hot streak followed by an injury that ends his career and he knows it and retires. The guy deserves that (he played meaningless baseball in Kansas City for too long). I don’t see him getting traded. I see him ending his career gracefully right here with the M’s. Sweeney has been good for the M’s. Let him finish off good and retire. Maybe, just maybe, he can get through to Griffey and let him know that now is the time to walk away from the game. The game has treated both of them well and they’ve both done good things to it, but when it’s time to hang it up, walk away as proud men.
