This doesn't make any sense. Felix was utterly amazing between 2009 and 2014, and merely fantastic most other years until the last 2 seasons.
I root for the Mariners, not sure I understand the question. I'm not saying he wasn't good, or worthy of being an ace, just was never a huge Felix guy. Guess I prefer my aces a little more Unitesque, bitter, mean,
I'm also likely quite a bit older than most of you too, my heyday was more of the 80's and 90's teams, back when I lived in Seattle and went to every home game. My first love was Darryl Strawberry in the mid 80's. Oh yeah, I wasn't a big Arod guy either. So lets get that one out of the way.
If the season ended today, we’d have home field throughout playoffs. If you would have told me before the season that we’d be in that position, I’d have never believed it. What a crazy ride this season has been.
Your Seattle Mariners have a) the best record in baseball b) the most dingers in baseball c) scored the most runs in baseball d) the most SB in baseball e) all of the above It's "e," fwiw.
I've watched a lot of depressing Mariner games but that was the worst. Never thought sports would make me emotional
Oh god. Thanks, Jon. The world is in shambles, we don’t have sports, and now there’s a 6 part series he’s releasing to show us all just how absurd this franchise is. The closing minutes of part 1 did get me amped, though.
So he went from the 30's to the end of the 80's in one part but now there's going to be 5 more parts released? We must've sucked more than I realized the last 30 years.
I could be wrong in this, but I’ve never seen a multi-episode production by him. Seems like they were planning to do a one-off and basically came to the conclusion of “lol what?” while researching
God damn. Part two absolutely slaps. I was way too young to understand what was going on behind the scenes in the ‘95 season.
And that was after he threw a firecracker into a crowd of kids waiting for an autograph after a game.
Pretty surprising that nobody, especially no posters in this thread, ever took issue with that pick at the time.
