Probably the first time I've ever seen a batter smiling and laughing after being absolutely drilled.
Only Naylor!



A little present for the catcher as he approaches home plate.
Only Naylor!

Interestingly, Castillo has been much better ever since the piggyback back stuff started.

I mean, I understand that the M's are super committed to the "handedness"/matchups thing no matter how much it continues to fail, but for the love of god, Robles is back now. How in the actual f@ck can they continue giving these important AB's to the one of the worst hitters in baseball? If you absolutely must stick to this nonsense, at least give someone else a shot that might actually do something.

Of all the guys on the extremely long list of horrible FA signings by Dipoto, Refsnizzle might be the worst.

I somehow think they are trying to continue to give him chances in the hope that he will develop some trade value. Certainly not working yet.

WHAT?!?! No pinch runner in for Naylor on 1B in the 9th?! Especially after that knee concern while batting? And especially in light of the fact Ms have only a 1-run lead? Earth to Dan! Earth to Dan! Anyone home?!

I hope they're not dumb enough to keep wasting important AB's on the Refsnizzle in an attempt to develop some sort of trade value. Any other team in the league would've DFA'd the guy by now. Nobody would take him even if the M's were giving him away for free.

Munoz is rusty. It happens when he gets too many days off.

Munoz quickly walks two straight, and only one out. Definitely not the same Munoz of prior seasons. Almost looks like he's intentionally trying to blow the save. Hardly any of his pitches are in the strike zone. What the hell is his PROBLEM!?

Thanks, Munoz, you just put a thick layer of SH** on everything. This series was easily winnable, and you come in and pitch like a girl.

Boy that's a really ugly, horrible loss, compounded by some bad mistakes and bad managing decisions.

🤮

Another loss on Dan. Used Ferrer for only 0.1 innings and didn't pull Munoz after he walked guys. He can't manage a bullpen.
Munoz sucks ass this year how do you keep him in the game like that.
Yeah we give way to much leeway to our players, like in Seattle we love our guys, even when they suck, we love em, we are the definition of insanity. Muni needs to be benched
