Isn't hitting enough to ever realistically get a look in the majors. Hard to believe how many top picks we wasted going back to Bavasi. Clement, Morrow, Aumont, Ackley, Hultzen, Peterson... Just hitting on 1 or 2 of those picks would have made a massive difference. I think Jack Z was dog crap, but Morrow, Ackley, and Hultzen were just bad luck. I don't even remember what went wrong with Morrow, didn't you guys trade him to the Jays for something decent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mesa_Titan Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Phelps looking damn good so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mesa_Titan Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Phelps has struck out 10 in 5.2 IP in his mariners career so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're obviously looking at this in hindsight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viewsfromthe206 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Probably the most important stretch of games coming up. Two more with Rangers and then a 4 game set with Royals which could put us closer to the WC spot or knock us way out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to keep beating teams below us and take 3 from the Royals to stay in the race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mesa_Titan Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Edwin Diaz is nasty. Sweet game. mariners on a roll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles27 Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 Was worried the pen was going to blow it in the 7th, but Vincent/Diaz got the job done. Miranda vs Cashner tomorrow. A sweep would be huge going into the KC series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles27 Posted August 4, 2017 Author Share Posted August 4, 2017 Another frustrating game. Could have easily won the last two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viewsfromthe206 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Yeah, should've won the last two. I'm just hoping we can take these next three or at least split. Can't afford to lose any ground Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viewsfromthe206 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Felix to the DL. Marco called up, looks like we'll see what Gonzales can do. Maybe Felix just shuts it down the rest of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles27 Posted August 6, 2017 Author Share Posted August 6, 2017 It's bicep tendinitis for Felix. Not sure what the time-line usually is for that, but I don't see them shutting him down. Curious to see whether DiPoto makes a move for another starter now though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagles27 Posted August 7, 2017 Author Share Posted August 7, 2017 Great trade, but we probably still some pitching help if we're going to grab a WC spot. Especially with Phelps hurt as well now... Extending Alonso would be nice, but he's cooled off after his incredible May. Wouldn't invest too much into him if I were Dipoto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
