Mariner Talk Chat Forum

I've been sitting here wondering when the game thread's going to start and then durp de dur that little light bulb ignited.

Cal's back in the lineup tonight after going 6-14 with five home runs in four games with Tacoma. Yeah, that rehab assignment was totally necessary. JP's also back. If only Donovan were back we'd be set to go on a nice run here.

Pereda sent down, probably because they would have had to DFA Garver. Not seeing what the problem is with that. Oh well, like Jon Morosi said today, Garver is a valuable trade chip.

Gilbert on the hill against one of the two sacks of dogshit who threw seven scoreless innings against us on the road trip. Worse, both these sacks are righties who we're supposed to be strong against.

Cal had better not go 0-4 with three Ks tonight.

All right, let's go out there, knock these bums down, and fart on their heads.

Hey Jude has posted this update on injuries and other bits

-Josh Naylor is dealing with wrist and shin issues and will be out at least tonight.

-Randy Arozarena (hamstring) having MRI today. Likely out for at least a couple days. M’s suddenly thin in OF.

Mariners are going back to a piggyback pitching plan, with a significant alteration: Every starter will rotate through and have piggyback days through the All-Star break.

This was a “unanimous” decision with all six starters involved in the planning, Justin Hollander said.

Pereda should have stayed up here. Why are they so ride or die for the snooze fest that is Garver.

Righties hit .275 against Young, so it would make perfect sense to bat Refsnyder fifth...if he wasn't having the worst season in Seattle Mariner history.

Raley's not in the lineup, is he injured?

Imagine if Cal had one more day down in Tacoma, the organization would have stuck to it and our lineup would be a white flag.

They could have put Rob Reefdick on the DL and kept Peredes but chose not to.

Benching Raley over Refs really? Raley has gotta be hurt. No Naylor or Randy. Not good at all!!!

So if Raley is hurt only guy on the bench is Garver? No Randy no Naylor no Raley! Wholly fuck injury curse

Starting pitching drama, batting Ref against a righty now, sending down a damn good catcher....

Mariner management could fuck up an anvil.

So let's see if we've got this right...

Cal's back. Rather than using this as a perfect time to move him to 4th or 5th, he's right back in the ol' 2-hole. If he's full strength, I want him in the lineup but hitting 2nd?!?! Mindless struck in the box non-thinking.
Canzone cleanup? I can live with that.

Refshlooser 5th??? Who or what goes into the thinktank and comes out with that? Stupid is as stupid does.
Crawfords's been down and out with his body issues. Should have put him 9th.

Mastrobunny...9th...1st Base...is what it is.
Young is just bouncing around in the lineup. He's fifth in OPS and third with that stat of players available tonight...so let's bat him 6th, behind the DH Refseverussnape. Whatever.

I really don't know what goes through Dan's head when he fills out his lineup card.

If JP gets on base 3 times and Cal homers I pretend I didn't question Wilson.
