We haven't made the play offs in two decades the off season has been horrible and this woman's biggest concern is seeing Felix in another uniform. She acts like she is back in middle school worried about seeing her ex boyfriend with another girl at prom. :roll:

Some of the comments are even better....”He pitches really well and gets traded to the Yankees and gets a ring”

sure, it makes more sense to be all up and arms over the lack of spending by a franchise that hasn't bothered to make the playoffs for two decades. What is it they say about insanity? Doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results? Maybe the fans more interested in Felix are the sane ones

Its the irony of it. They spend a quarter billion on Cano when it makes no sense to do so. They waste money on Scrabbles, Aokis and Nicasios. They give Kikuchi 10s of millions five minutes into the rebuild but now they COMPLETELY turn the faucet off when on the verge of competing in a down year in the AL West.

She is having a meltdown over seeing him pitch in another uniform. So you think Felix is going to lead the O's to the WS? They must be selling liquor in the PI again???? :lol:
Unlike Atlanta, the Orioles play in the American League. This means that after a year of avoiding it, Mariners fans will be forced not only to see King Félix adorned in Lord Baltimore’s atomic orange threads, but will likely have to see him play our very own team, an outcome that seems almost guaranteed as the Mariners open the season early on with a four-game series at Camden Yards in the first full week of the season, and then host Baltimore at T-Mobile Park for another three games in early May. These are games that promise to feel bad no matter who wins, and I am already dreading them.

Yankees might win the WS. Better chance Ichiro is on their roster when they do than Felix....

might be, but that doesn't mean one can't dream about it happening, I would take that over dreaming the Mariners doing it At least Felix is making an effort at it

A franchise that hangs on to a player with the trade value he held a few yrs back while providing the fan base with a team that provides good entertainment for the whole fan family, This franchise would have been light years ahead in this rebuild had they pulled the trigger. The Chuck and Howard show is directly responsible for the drought and the duration of the drought. They focused on providing a good fan experience they didn’t focus on winning.......
