While I’m woefully disappointed by leadership, I’m highly interested in who is replacing Mather. I know it won’t be Theo...but what if it was Theo?
And PLEASE listen to that LL podcast. I had no idea how cocky Kelenic is and boy am I happy about it. M’s need some DGAF in the clubhouse from someone how can back it up
Not to go full sjw on everybody on the first page, but the org has been sued by multiple people of racial discrimination and multiple people for sexual harassment. Might be time to put somebody in charge who will actually make some changes to a toxic organization (and may also show some of our young talent that they shouldn’t bolt upon first opportunity).
Agreed. I wish MLB would force Stanton to sell. He’s the issue and as long as he’s around I fear things will never improve. They need to clean out a bunch of folks at the top.
i've barely followed the Ms since the 2018 team. i'm looking at the 2019 roster on baseball-reference and barely recognize some of the players. and i didn't watch anything last year during the shortened pandemic season. where we at? jack z still making shitty trades? did we go young and do we have elite prospects? will felix or ichiro enter the HOF? also, it looks like kendall graveman was on the team last year? doesn't his brother post on tmb?
Jack z is gone and we got jerry dipotto as the new GM. One of the top farm systems in the league, but still a year or two out from those guys contributing
cool. can't wait to really see what all of that Ryan Anderson hype was about!! (never forget, never forgive hultzen over rendon)
The Mariners should give Ichiro 50 ABs every year until he dies. It's not like it will keep them from making the playoffs.
- Kelenic does literally nothing in the pros - Lewis spends the entire year on the DL - Huge negative run differential yet still right above/around .500 how we feeling
Seems like the perfect time for the M’s to make some dumb trades to leverage the future and try to chase the playoffs this year.
Kelenic will work. Julio is gonna work. Arms are stacked. We’re gonna be fine. They should extend Jerry. /cope
Doing my best to reserve judgement until after Friday, but what the fuck with this Graveman trade. All the excitement of last night and then you pull this shit ass trade with the team you’re playing again today, for a RP with a 7 ERA and a 2B who can’t fucking hit. There better be more moves coming that help this one make sense because this feels like a big kick to the dick for M’s fans and the team. FUCK.
As I reread my initial response, it appears as though I have already made my judgement. Fuck you, Jerry.
Price for elite relievers has been so high recently and that’s all y’all got just wow we can feel pain together as my team will never win anything either
is this our thread? #Seattle Mariners i can't say i really follow the sport much since college but it sounds like we're winning it all this year with our new 21 year old griffey-tier superstar
Really excited about this team. Think we can argue that we should/could have done more in the offseason but getting Winker / Suarez was a great move. Young pitchers look good. Julio doing Julio things. Hope Kelenic can rebound but it should be a fun year.
Yeah I will reserve judgement until I see if they add anything else between now and the deadline, but man, it feels like a missed opportunity over the deadline to add 1 more SP and 1 more bat. I get not wanting to block the young guys, but get to the fucking playoffs more than once in 20 years before we worry about shit like that. Upon further review, it appears I did not reserve judgement.
I finally have Root Sports for the first time in years, thanks to the Kraken smashing that door down and providing some subscription options. Looking forward to it.
He did not, in fact, reserve judgement. I get the opinion but would you be happy with albatross contracts just to get Kris Bryant? I want star power but not if it precludes us from making moves when the farm players are producing
