Why couldn't the Ms get this Wong?

[Jerhawk]

Why couldn't we get this version of Kolten Wong? Why do players come here and suck, then leave and play good again?

The Mariners make me sick and sad. Help me understand

 

[nwHawk]

We traded for the wong guy!

Past his prime, simple as

Past his prime, simple as

He's only 32. If this was football I would agree. He's the same age as Bobby Wagner

But this is baseball. I'm 32. Are you....are you saying I'm past my prime? Oh no..

Shows why DiPoto thought he'd added a player. Some guys play well into their 30's at a high level.

Still only April. Maybe he comes around.

 

[FrodosFinger]

Because two rights don’t make a Wong

 

[sutz]

According to a lot of folks around here we did get that deal wong.

Like the song says...... Right Place......but it must have been the Wong time...........

If you're playing baseball at 32 you should be able to hit a baseball.

Something is wong with this team

Suarez is one of the few hitters in the last decade who have come to the Mariners and got better. But pretty much everyone else is like Wong. They suck once they come to the Mariners.

Even if he played like we expected he was basically a .250 hitter with about 10 HR’s a season.

So clearly, either Mt. Rainier or the Fremont troll is causing athletes to suck here. We need to find a way to get rid of Mt. Rainier.

I can barely walk into Wal-Mart without falling over, but I'll give it my best

He just swung at a pitch about 5 inches from his calves for the strike-out. Bats like he doesn't give a crap about the Ms. If that's the way he's going to play as a Mariner, I want him the hell out of here.

Ahh the 11 game into the season fun lol

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Well, Wong has shown absolutely NOTHING since he has been here.
