Are the Mariners the best team in baseball?

[Sperrydogg]

The Dodgers and Padres are the two best teams currently. M's are doing well but it's still early.

Padres don’t have the pitching

 

[IndyHawk]

They do have a couple injured pitchers that should be back soon, especially Kirby and Brash.

Brash is back,Lomart is due back later this month and Kirby
just pitched a 3 inning rehab assignment at Tacoma today.

What about New York Yankees and the whole nl west

It’s awesome to be having this debate by the way

The Yankees and Dodgers pitching is hanging by threads.

Padres don’t have the pitching

The Padres are currently the top in team ERA and among the leaders in almost all pitching categories. https://www.espn.com/mlb/stats/_/view/team

Wow ok I was wrong. I watched them the other day and their pitching seemed like their weakness but those are some nice numbers

Scott Servais working his magic with pitching in San Diego

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Nah, Servais sucks.

F dodgers forever. I hope that landfill of a stadium they play in collapses and their overpaid roster is hit with a team-wide case of virulent clap.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

F the Dodgers with a Sandpaper......well you know.

Trivia: Hey, even the 116-win Ms of 2001 were swept once. (And that was a three-game series vs Oakland Athletics Sept. 21-23.)

Shoot, if someone would have told me when were sitting at 3-7: "Hey man, the M's are going to be in first place on May 12th" I would have told you to not actually drink the bong water.

Kinda looks like it. San Diego’s pitching is much better than I thought

Bill Bavasi the Buffoon, Bad Trader Jack Z & Jerry the DiBozo. They never get it right.

Meh. At the time of the OP, in April the M's were probably top 5. Since then we've dropped to more middle of the pack overall. Lot of games left.

 

[Wsumatt1982]

Hell no. We probably go on a hot streak again for a bit but this team is not good enough, never was.

No no you’re right.. let’s keep believing in this team.. they’ve rewarded us this decade for believing in them!

Don't make it personal.

Dude. We get it. Change the record. Or come up some actual clever names
