They better upgrade They don’t have the ignorant fan club they used to. My guess the upgrade will be far less than what’s been bantered about around here lately as in no snell or Bauer. It will barely move the needle forward and we will get thrown out of the Peoria stadium for screaming at Stanton and Traitor Jerry. This is wearing thin

[D-train]

Thinking about the guy on twitter a few months ago desperately trying to get fans to go to the Angels Ms game at T Mobile and chant for Ohtani to come to Seattle. I guess he wasn't successful. lol

The M's are going to suck next year. It's obvious and plain as fucking day. They have no plan.

Circling the shitter.

Yup! There is no help on the way. Dip-dumbass did not anticipate Texas getting good so fast. At least that's my theory.

Evidently we can’t compete

Anticipate the Rangers? What difference would that have made? They would have spent more money? They aren't going to spend as a response to another team spending. And besides, the rangers spending was anticipated. They had opened a new stadium, they had money to spend. I believe we talked about it.

Dude someone needs to hold JD's feet to the fire. We are going to save-up and spend when this thing gets turned around in 2021! Fucking ass hole just got rid of 5 of our top 10 hitters who all performed above average in OPS+. From a team that needed to improve a few points on their team OPS+ of 106. The team they have would project out to a 90 something OPS+. They have no plan to compete.

Should probably put in my win guess in the low to mid 70's at this point. We'll definitely be looking up at the Angels, Astros, and Rangers while battling the Athletics all season for last place in the division. Things aren't looking good. But hey, we got a bazillion guys that can play 2nd base!

Here's a "hot take". Ain't posting another fucking wish' rumor about the M's, until I start to see shit happening. Because, who the fuck cares! Right?!

U wanna alienate your fanbase. Cool. Then FUCK YOU!

Would potential trade partners point to the 2023 (and career) ERA+ of 93 for Bryce Miller and 96 for Bryan Woo? Or the 2023 ERA+ of 108 for Logan Gilbert?

As a point of reference, this year the Mariners posted a team ERA+ of 109.

ERA+ is a mere thumbnail measurement but a stat a trade partner could emphasize to limit the values of those starters.

Thoughts?

Yep just like the M's need to be wary of hitters hitting at GAB and other hitters parks I am sure teams are well aware of the fact that pitchers that they acquire from us might not fare as well in their parks. Might be another reason we still haven't seen any of our legit starters traded yet. Very possible M's fans are not happy with the returns.
