The 2016 Seattle Mariners (Official season edition)

[Hawk-Lock]

I think at this point it just comes down to what should we do when the trade deadline rolls around. Unless we trade for a lot, we are not going to make a run at the wild card. There are too many teams ahead of us, and to be quite honest, they are just better than us.

Guessing Cruz will be on the block.

I don't think he will be.

No one wants to touch that contract, and you don't trade away a bonafide run producer in the middle of your lineup no matter how crappy he looks when he swings at pitches in the dirt at times. That would be signaling to your fanbase that you are trying to build that you are "giving up" before August.

I'd see if anyone had a need for a sidearm "closer" that pretty much sucks, however.

From the 10,000 foot view you are correct. From the micromanagement world of baseball and the need to keep selling tickets they feel they are still in the thick of things, or at least need to "project" that to the fanbase.

I don't foresee a fire sale next month. And I really don't see trading Cruz, although he frustrates the hell out of me sometimes. He's starting to remind me of Reggie Jackson, with his K, K, K, HR style.

:evil:

 

[sutz]

Oh, and Miley tomorrow sounds kind of scary. He owned them last time, but which Miley will show up?

Think we could get a Class A end of the bench player for him?



And I think you're right about not trading much if anything to give the impression to the ticket buying public that the team is shooting for the playoffs.

 

[IndyHawk]

Well they could shoot for the playoffs but as said pitching is needed to do it.I cannot fathom how many games have been lost after the 7th inning but bet it's many.

For Cishek I'd do it. Addition by subtraction.

For once I need the M's to win, $ on M's to win and Over 4 runs. Lets go! Don't f*ck this up Miley!

Looks like you're in trouble already. Bottom of the 2nd and he's given up 3 so far. Typical Miley. Not to be personally critical of you, but why in the hell would you put one ounce of faith in Miley?

I know right, I already feel like such an idiot. He actually has great numbers against the Royals. I've come to terms that I'm losing money on this game.

 

[sutz]

Damn, Montgomery is looking like a starter today. :2thumbs:

Nice to have a guy like that around.

 

[hawksfansinceday1]

8-0 lead in the top of the 7th. Not even the Ms bullpen can blow that (once Montgomery is done), right?

 

[Hawk-Lock]

Montgomery with sweet revenge on his former team.

 

[hawksfansinceday1]

Now 8-4. If any team's pen can blow an 8-zip lead in the 7th it's the Ms. Geebus. SMDH.

Why? Why why why why why???!? Cishak is the worst pitcher I've ever seen. Why does Servais continually put this clown in the game? What does he see in him? Does Cishak have some picture or video to blackmail him? Go back to the minors where you belong you are TERRIBLE!!!! Good thing we have a 4 run lead. Oh 3 run lead after a first pitch HR. Then a walk. Strong work Cishak you suck

 

[sutz]

They do make it interesting. :laugh:

It comes down to admitting they were wrong on the guy. See ego.

Cishek is not even close to a bonafide MLB closer IMHO.
Doesn't throw hard enough to get away with mistakes, doesn't have enough control to get guys to swing at balls off the plate as he misses by a mile when he misses outside the strikezone.

Agree Hernia.
