Eagles27 Posted April 4, 2018 Author Share Posted April 4, 2018 Nice start to the season. Hopefully we can keep this going with Felix and Paxton pitching the next two. Would be nice to get off to a fast start for a change. Definitely need it if we're going to sneak into a wild card spot this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

animaltested Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 So Healy twisted his ankle working out (lol). And even Dave Simms ruptured his Achilles. Mariners gonna Mariner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles27 Posted April 9, 2018 Author Share Posted April 9, 2018 This franchise is definitely cursed. Watching Ohtani start off so well is pretty brutal as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
animaltested Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Paxton looked good again. He is this rotations only legit arm (unless you believe in washed up Felix and ... Mike Leake.) Seager might have finally figured out that April DOES COUNT, and not an extension of spring training. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagles27 Posted April 15, 2018 Author Share Posted April 15, 2018 This lineup is fun to watch. Legit bats 1-9 when we get Zunino and Gamel healthy. Pitching is pretty bad though. Going to need to pick somebody up if Gonzales and Felix don't pitch decently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, don't know who we could get, but this lineup has playoff potential with Zunino in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles27 Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 Good to get the win in game 1 of this series. Pitching matchups look really ugly for the next 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

animaltested Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 All this talk about the lineup and what not, Score 6 runs in a four game series. Ya know, after this many years, you would think Id know what to expect. Apparently, I am an idiot. Rotation is Paxton, Soggy Felix, Mike Leakes 4 good innings and then a dumpster fire. Bullpen is Diaz surround by a pile of trash with bad facial hair. Lineup is well, could be pretty good. But looks like it will be like last year, a weekly rotation of 2-3 streaky hitters at opposite ends of the lineup, resulting in solid, yet inconsistent run scoring. Lets be real here, this team is eagerly anticipating the return of Mike Zunino and Erasmo Ramirez. That isnt exactly a good indicator going forward.

Eagles27 Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 To be fair we did just face 4 really good pitchers in a row. The lineup doesn't have many holes, but I agree that too many of them are streaky to a fault. The pitching is bad and it's not really a surprise. We were talking in here that we needed Ohtani + someone else. Not signing any starting pitching was unacceptable, and its on full display now. They traded for Gonzales last year and with no options left they had to keep him in the rotation. Erasmo with no options either was handed a rotation spot for whatever reason. The pen wouldn't be too bad had Phelps been healthy IMO. Pushing Nicasio + Vincent into lesser roles and Altavilla off the roster. The franchise is in a bad spot. A long re-build is on the horizon, and we're not really good enough to grab a WC without some luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mesa_Titan Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Pretty awesome performance by Marco today. If he can locate the corners, he's pretty nasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
