    The 2016 Seattle Mariners (Official season edition)

    "True to the Blue". What does that mean? As an organization, the Mariners have not established a winning tradition. "Blue" does not evoke memories of post-season success. Aside from the '95 season, one trip to ALCS and 0 World Series is not a heritage of success. Does it mean "prepare...

    Not sure who is leader in that clubhouse, but I'd like to see some sign of the "Seahawk's grit and spirit". These games now are just as important as those in late September. Next man up. "We all we got. We all we need".

    Infuriating loss- Ms blow golden opportunity to gain 1 full game on Texas who lost tonight to Pirates. How can they lay an egg like that against WORST team in MLB? Twinkies starting pitcher had record of 1 - 5.

    Yes - Ms have a better chance to sweep Twins than Texas sweeps Pirates. Rangers haven't played in National League park yet - had interleague at home. I can't wait to see Rangers put Fielder in Center field to keep his bat in lineup. Wonder if he can climb wall to snag ball heading over fence...

    The 2016 Seattle Mariners (Official season edition)

    Lots of offense tonight - I 'd rather have seen them "bank" a few of those 13 runs to give to Felix on Friday. A look over the horizon into June - huge 6 game series coming with Texas - 3 there, 3 here. A real chance to put some distance over them. However, based on season so far, we'll...

    Taylor's errors probably cost the Ms this game - w/o them, score might have been 1-0. A more manageable comeback. Lou was known to have a very short leash for rookies - he preferred veterans. I checked Fielding errors for Taylor and O'Malley. Taylor has MLB 12 Errors O"Malley has 1. On...

    Pesky Rangers - however, they've been playing Houston. Now they face the Angels and Pirates. I expect them to drop a few and if Mariners continue to win series, you'll see some separation. Did I hear that the Rangers are building a new stadium?

    The 2016 Seattle Mariners (Official season edition)

    It is a long haul. As has been said before, every team will win 60 games and lose 60 games - it's what they do with the 42 in the middle that determines the season. On this home stand of 8 games, I'll be satisfied if they go 5-3. Try to stay at .500 at home, and pile up wins on the road...

    The 2016 Seattle Mariners (Official season edition)

    Cano hit by pitch w/ bases loaded - 2nd time this game. I recall games when Sweet Lou was Manager - there would be retribution. Has the PC virus infected our National pastime? In fact, I am unaware of any arguments or Servais being tossed this season. Lou made it an art form. Bless his...

    The 2016 Seattle Mariners (Official season edition)

    I know, don't get too far ahead of yourself, but on paper, appears that the Mariners SHOULD prevail. I can still hear the chant of the Yankee fans in 2001 during the 116 win season - " OVER-RATED!" To be honest, I'm just grateful for the season the Mariners have had so far. I'm here marking...

    9 of next 12 games are against Last place teams - Reds, Twins, Padres. Should give Ms chance to extend their lead in AL West. :thirishdrinkers:
