This just might be the low point in Mariner history. I'm driving home listening to the radio and they play our highlight of the game which is Beckham catching a foul popup. LMAO
I thought you’d say the highlight was Goldsmith’s discussion of his son’s T-Ball.
An insider told me they called a Batboys-only meeting after the game.
Worse than that, the boys were kicked out and it was a Bats only meeting.

OMG... the Mariners are going "0 fer" the rest of the season.
You know I have said all along that the M's were kinda locked into about the 6th spot. That is true to a certain extent. After the 6 game losing streak which did not really lengthen their lead over #7 Chicago who has a 5 game losing streak of their own but are a full 7 games behind the M's. The 6 gamer has pulled the M's with-in .5 games of Miami(5th) and 1.5 back of the Jays (4th), and 3.5 games back of the Royals for 3rd. The Tigers are 2nd and have a 5.5 game advantage on the M's. Finally, the front running O's suck really bad and have an 8.5 game lead on the M's.

To propose putting them on the 40-man roster, no doubt.

If Dee Gordon doesn't get traded he should become a utility player at the deadline if they keep him.

How long do you keep up this charade of handing him playing time in the hopes of getting anything back in trade?

There's ZERO chance we get a better return than even what we got for Encarnacion.

Lost cause. Sunk cost. Call it what you will, that goose is cooked.

You mean the dude pitchers hardly pitch at outside the zone because they are too scared to walk him? I still struggle to believe Gordon says that in an interview and no one calls him on it yet Segura gets suspended for not hustling on a run scoring play.

Those pitch charts are kind of cool. Where can I find those?
