[AT Fresno]

i'm gonna check it out! I want to see if his stance is the same. He's been moving around a little. ~~My Nephew, Darrell is going to every game in this series.

LOL at the Times trying to make the Storm such a big part of their coverage and they just became the first WNBA franchise to have two ten-plus game losing streaks in the same season.

You could see everyone relax, not drop focus, but relax as a team Woo walked off after that excellent double play with the swagger of "I'm your Huckleberry". and "We've got this"! I like having Ward and Donovan hitting back to back in the line up but I think they should be at the top of the line up followed by Young in the 3 hole.

Why? Ward has a noodle bat and Donovan still probably isn't fully healthy...They are 2-13

It's what you got Taylor for isn't it, to get on base? You put a guy like that at the top of the lineup don't you?

Seattle’s .310 team OBP ranks second-to-last in the American League, only ahead of the Blue Jays, thanks to the massive drop-off in Cal Raleigh’s production (down 97 points in OBP) and their offensive voids at third base and right field. Ward can fill the latter spot, with his .383 OBP replacing the .287 OBP the Mariners’ previous right fielders have scratched out on the season. That alone is another 18-20 baserunners for the rest of the season, even if we don’t consider the possibility that Ward could remember how he hit 36 homers last year

Did you see that HR by Laz. Never seen anything like it...

I was at the Kingdome with a buddy when Juan Gonzalez hit one to straight away CF. It was out before either of us could utter a word. Never seen anything like that before or after.

Dan Wilson, with the quietest ejection in baseball history.

What a zero manager we have.

I am not a Dan fan. I never thought he should have just been handed the job after finishing as the interim. That said, wasn't Justin Hollander just quoted as saying they would meet with Dan to figure out were Ward will hit in the lineup? Imagine not even being able to decide the batting order without your boss telling you? He is a puppet. Dipoto is and always will be the problem with this team. Send him back to the Angels, fuck that guy. And I'm not sure Hollander is anything more than Jerry's mouthpiece. More likely has Jerry's piece in his mouth. This organization is doomed as long as that sleezeball Jerry is around.
