As a Mariners fan, 3 runs is pretty incredible. Not sure why you included 3 in that stat....?

Justin Smoak will need 10 hits in his next AB to avoid worst batting average ever by a 1B/DH with 1500 PAs. http://ow.ly/khfrM

Ha ha. I really don't like his chances. Why don't we send him down. Does he have player options left?

That actually surprises me that .229 is the current lowest and that the averages go up so quickly from there.

This team is awful! And too think, I liked the moves we made in the offseason, but yet again they mean nothing. I hate being an M's fan sometimes!

Seriously Jack, just give up on the guy.

decent piece on Smoak on USSMariner, basically saying its time to move on from Smoak and advocating finding a triple a guy.

thats one down, with Seeger, Ackely, Montero to go. These three have to become real major leaguers or this club is screwed for years to come

Seager has been hitting pretty good as of late. I'm not worried too much about him. I am concerned about the others. The fact that Ackley, Montero, and Smoak all have looked as bad as they have is severely bad luck on the M's part. These are all guys that were top 10 prospects when they made the M's major league roster. You'd figure at least one of them would be showing star potential by now.

The Outfield · Apr 22, 2013

Seager leads the MLB in doubles and is hitting .409 over the last seven days. He is the last of my concerns on this team. Ackley and Montero might be turning it around a bit. But Smoak isn't showing any signs of improvement, unfortunately.

Lithium · Apr 22, 2013

The same thing I saw in C. Granderson back when he was coming up, i see in Kyle Seager. He's gonna be a pretty decent ball player, unfortunately the M's are blind so it probably wont be for us (Morse).
EDIT: As he hits a 2 run upper-decker!

Holy crap, a W??? For Felix??? #100!

Can't remember who, but someone was arguing with me when I said the Rangers were just fine keeping Moreland and letting Smoak go.

At this point I'm just hoping that at least one of those guys starts showing any potential at all to be a decent MLB player.

Was surprised by the statistical lines of Seager... very encouraging.

Some hitting taking place last night. lets see if Ackely, Smoak and Montero can leep it up

(christ im far too hopeful)

therealjohncarlson · Apr 23, 2013

Funny in a depressing (and mariners) way that Seager, who was likely an afterthought draft pick after Ackley and his room mate at North Carolina, might replace him at second base in the future.

CurryStopstheRuns · Apr 23, 2013

Smoak is warming up as well.

Trrrroy · Apr 23, 2013

I've never been a Jack Z hater, but he's been making it very hard lately. Peguero over Thames? How does he justify that? I know in the overall scheme of things it won't matter much seeing as Saunders will be back soon, but it's still a dumb move.
