I wonder how many people tweeted "Good riddance" in reply and either couldn't or got their comment booted. No way in hell did every fan responding say something like that...right?
I feel like replying but am afraid all those groupies will jump on me for caring about winning games more than rightfully honoring the patron saint of Mariner baseball.
Well yeah, don't say anything to disparage the great John Moses!

Perfect name for a Mariner since we have been following them through the desert for 40+ years....I actually was a fan of his for some reason. An OFer that averaged 1 HR a season. LOL

If Dee Gordon isn't hitting .300 and stealing 60 bags he's worthless. That puts him in the barely passable, poor man's Ichiro category... anything below that, he's James Jones.

No power and terrible plate disciple is a horrible combination that exemplifies Dee's time in Seattle. If he was as good in 2018 or even last season as he was in Miami we probably make the playoffs. Yet he is regaled has a hero by the Mariner faithful. :|

I just read through that whole Twitter thread. I too fell like I'm getting punked. Imagine a fan of ANY other team reading that, just embarrassing. Those same people whi thought Gordon was a good player probably say things like "home base" and "points".

I think the Mariners would have tried even Moses’ patience. :(
