It's weird how Casey Lawrence is able to stick around in pro ball, let alone in the majors. The guy is 37 years old and he's mostly never been good anywhere for any sort of extended period, and yet here he is on a major league roster.
Just amazing. -1.9 WAR 105 minor league wins.

Yea Pomeranz who is pitching well in AAA who has had a good career is being wasted down there. Having 2 lefties on this team would be massive especially if he can get out rights also

That was such a total Mariner way to win, do everything possible to screw it up and then one of the scrubs totally comes through. Man, that was great to see.

After what happened today Bazardo and Tellez will now get extra days or weeks to cost this team wins. How the heck did Bazardo even survive his previous appearanace?

The M’s are back to .500 with yesterday’s loss (today’s). But they have 3 series wins in a row and need to make it a 4th. Victory is assured! :lol:

Yeah that was fun, but Tellez is still shitty and the opposite type of player we need.

Yeah, he'll occasionally hit homeruns. It's physics: He's a giant, heavy, sweaty hog, so when he makes contact on the fat part of the bat it goes a long way. But he doesn't make good contact very often.

He had opportunities earlier in the game to potentially win the game with an ordinary bloop single, but, like so many of Dipoto's guys, base hits aren't his thing. His specialty is occasionally hitting homeruns. And it seems so magical every time because he's so bad the rest of the time.

He's Vogelbach with better defense but an inability to walk.

Guess who isn't in the league? Vogey.
