Mariners (68-57) @ Phillies (71-53) Aug 18-20, '25...

I love the guy. Just really tired of seeing him strikeout. I've also said he will come around. Just didn't think it would take so long.
Also, I'm just very f'ing grumpy about this crap road trip.

Hey, nobody ever complains about Cal and his K's, even though they should. Selective criticism? Yep, all over the place on here. And that's fine.
And for the record, I absolutely HAVE complained about Cal and his strikeouts and when he's on a slump. And I've also complained about Julio leaving guys on base.

Julio could go 4 for 5 and people would act like he stabbed someone because it wasn't 5 for 5. Then they would go on about how he somehow sucks as an outfielder, hates puppies and should be batting 9th. Cal could go 1 for 30 and people would bow to his one HR. (for the record, Cal is my favorite player in the entire league)
Dot not is THE place for selective criticism. We stick up for players we like, that's just how it is. That's sports. For the most part, this entire team is playing like ass. And Wilson is killing this team and handing away wins.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

All that being said, you're right. Selective criticism. We pick a guy that's pissing us off, then select to criticize him

 

[Chapow]

Have a good one, man. Hope this team can turn things around when they get home.

 

[Sperrydogg]

Selective criticism… my wife has that… I have selective listening

 

[SoulfishHawk]

My wife says I don't listen. Or something like that.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Have a good one, man. Hope this team can turn things around when they get home.

They need some home cooking for sure. Get that confidence back. Padres are pretty tough. A few of us are going to the day game next Wednesday.

Im officially done With Dan Wilson as manager. I love the guy but this lineup is ridiculous. And I don't care about "matchups". I want our best hitters in there. Period.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Garver, Solano AND Moore? What in actual hell is Wilson smoking? Geezus

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Julio with a bomb. Good start.

Arozarena, Suarez and Cal all struck out. Ouch

 

[SoulfishHawk]

6 outs by the M's..............6 strikeouts. Holy shit biscuits this offense sucks. STILL. I guess we need to be the best at something. They're on their way

PUTRID

This was basically our everyday lineup before the deadline.

It makes me appreciate how far we’ve come when we are at full strength.

This team needed an experienced major league manager with some sort of a successful track record at the big league level. Instead, they hired a guy with no experience as a manager at any level, but hey, he's popular with the fans because he was a good player for us 20 years ago.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

THIS ^^^^^^

But hey, as long as they hold on to 1995, everything is just fine in Seattle

You mean like 6 strikeouts as our first 6 outs?

 

[Hawk-Lock]

Phillies AB’s are so impressive. Castillo basically at 50 pitches and not even half way through the second inning.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

This team is a hot mess. Just wow.
9 outs, 8 of them by strikeout. You can't even make this stuff up.

The Rock getting out jam after jam. Shocking that this is a one run game.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Another hit for Julio. Hoping the rest of them join the party.

 

[Chapow]

This team is a hot mess. Just wow.

The whole thing is dumpster fire right now. Pitching, hitting, defense, base running, they just can't do anything right. This is just straight up gawd awful baseball all around.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Yup. 3 measly hits. Talk about a bipolar team. Go from 8 straight wins to this sh** show?

Good way to put it too. Just awful baseball all around. They currently are just not a good team. No sugar coat needed.

 

[Shane Falco]

The strikeouts are maddening. They are going to go over 70 k's for series against the Mets and Phil's.
