Very bad news. Pinky hairline fractures can take quite a while to get better.
Dipoto is being interviewed at my work. Seems pretty negative. Basically said the last 30 days have sucked.

Still buyers but only one player mentioned on sports radio is available. Money is there to make a move supposedly. Looking at all over the diamond.

I wouldn't pee on that guy if he was on fire. And I certainly don't believe anything management and/or ownership has to say.

Servais is going to be on the hot seat very soon if this continues. Blew a massive lead and it sounds like some players are unhappy.

Dipoto should be first in line for the chopping block. I understand that he is somewhat hamstrung by the ownership, but even taking that into account, the offseason was an absolute disaster. The moves he made, made this team so much worse it's unbelievable.

This organization has had a lot of disappointing and underwhelming off seasons, but I can't remember another one in recent memory that was anywhere near this bad. It was just a complete and utter failure. The 3 biggest acquisitions, the guys that were supposed to replace the production of Teo, Geno, and Kelenic, are all literally worse than replacement level players. I'm sorry, but you can't screw up this badly and not face any sort of consequences.

By all means, lets make Servais the scape goat and fire him. But this team is a dumpster fire right now because the roster is a dumpster fire. The majority of the players on this team (excluding starting pitching) just aren't good enough, and quite frankly, probably shouldn't even be everyday starters in MLB. Our best hitter right now is a guy that was DFA'd from a bad team in June. That's how bad this roster is. The Oakland A's have a better offense than the M's.

Owned by a crap team. I stick to my opinion; fork has been inserted for a long while. The ONLY reason they are tied for first is all the injuries that Pukeston had this year. They'll finish in 3rd, and probably 6-8 games out of first. This team is barely watchable these days.

Last nights loss was probably my fault I didn’t start watching until the Yankees/Mets game ended which was the end of the 4th inning with the score tied 0-0 than the 5th inning blowup where the Angels scored their 5 runs

They've lost 19 of their last 28, this team just plain isn't good. Barely average. Can't even beat sh** teams.

It’s so sad to see our good pitching go to waste. One run so far
in this game. Hanigar with a accidental home run.

Raleigh better keep his yap shut too. We need more offense,
what the hell has he done in the last 3 weeks.

Apparently it doesn't even matter anymore who Servais puts out there to pitch the 8th. Whoever it is, is going to blow it.

Of course, the offense, and only scoring 1 run is the far bigger problem.

Welp, R.I.P. 2024 Mariners. It was fun pretending like you might actually do something this year for a little while there.

Ron Washington out managed the entire M's staff. That was brutal. Lots of people are crying over the BP lately LMAO the pitching is fine can't expect to pitch shut outs every game. The offense is historically bad. Servais, DeHart, and Acta all should be gone after this year if they don't win the division.

Can we fire another hitting coach and "OC?" Might as well at least savage the underlings to show that the organization cares about winning.
