5/10: Open Game Thread

Hello. Welcome back. I trust you are all properly recovered from what will be known as Marte Monday and you're ready for some Tuesday night baseball featuring the Seattle Mariners and the Tampa Bay Rays. Tonight's pitching match-up is a true rapper's delight as Wade Miley takes on Drew Smyly.

Miley is coming off back to back quality starts. He looks nothing like the disaster we were all dreading at the beginning of the year and starting to look like the starter we expected. Drew Smyly turned out to be the big prize from that David Price trade a few years ago. This was also the move that brought us Austin Jackson. I remember that trade being very exciting for all teams. Detroit got Price, TB got Smyly, Nick Franklin, and something called Willy Adames and we got a perennial lead off hitter. In hindsight, it just looks like a big clunker for everyone involved. Baseball trades are so great.

Lot of reasons to feel great. The M's are in first, the weather is great, we get cheap pizza because The Mariners scored more than four runs last night. The sun is beautiful and the moon is even more beautiful (DAE BOW BOW)
