Other than his one inning in the futures game, Kade hasn't pitched since July 3rd. They don't have him listed as the probable starter until Friday. that's a full 3 weeks off. I wonder what the thought is behind that.

Innit mate. If there was a Manc phrase book that will be on the front page. :lol: Heading to the game tonight. First time this year. Just my luck I get Castillo against a guy who is 11-1 with a 2.54 ERA. :roll: No bobblehead giveaway tonight :lol: Should have gone at the weekend as there are free t...

He hasn't been the statistical equivalent to Naylor for years. You can't just spout that nonsense. From '23-'25 Naylor was the FAR superior player. The fact that you don't get that is astounding. At the time they cut france his numbers were absolutely comparable to Naylors numbers at the time they ...

At the time they cut france his numbers were absolutely comparable to Naylors numbers at the time they signed him. The M's cut France in 2024. In the 3 seasons prior (21-23) he put up 8.0 WAR The M's signed Naylor in 2026 in the 3 seasons prior(23-25) he put up 6.8 WAR From 2023 -2025 France put up...

He got sporadic playing time because of the particular needs of the teams he was on at the time. He was a filler piece in Cincinnati while they were transitioning to a younger lineup. Minnesota was just a giant mess and decided to blow things up and rebuild and obviously he wasn't going to start ov...

Ty Frances OPS+ 2020 133 2021 128 2022 125 2023 101 2024 96 at the time they cut him At no time in his stint with the M's was France worse than Naylor is right now with his 92 OPS+. We get 4 more years of this. Oh Joy! Lol... so the Mariners should have kept France who put up 101 OPS+, 92 OPS+ (his...

Most years? He was a rookie in '19, Covid year in '20, and injured in '21. From '22-'25 he was about a 125 OPS+ hitter. I think he was alluding to Naylor's batting average, which in 2022 and 2024 where comparable to 2026. The problem is the lack of extra-base hitting. Without that he's Pete O'Brien...

Ty Frances OPS+
2020 133
2021 128
2022 125
2023 101
2024 96 at the time they cut him

At no time in his stint with the M's was France worse than Naylor is right now with his 92 OPS+. We get 4 more years of this. Oh Joy!

And this is the result.
