Anderson to pitch Saturday and it is a televised game by MLB

[D-train]

Hollander on Brock and Salk. I really have to give Jerry props for the Donovan trade. His patience and relationships with Chaim Bloom and the Rays GM really paid off. I guess he is like Dwight in the office. LOL

Anderson on the "Mariner way", thought it was kinda interesting there being one and Anderson already buying into it. That seems like pretty good indoctrination

He was asked about going after hitters after striking out Julio Rodriguez, Cal Raleigh, Mitch Garver and Rob Refsnyder

Yeah. ​I ​think ​as ​a ​Mariner, ​that's ​what ​we ​do. ​We ​go ​right ​at ​guys, ​seeing ​what ​it's ​all ​about. ​And ​if ​you ​give ​up ​a ​hit, ​you ​go ​right ​back ​at ​them. ​I ​think ​that's ​the ​mentality ​we ​have.

At one point, Anderson also said he was "here to strike guys out," which should have M's fans fired up

I think that's what he's talking about, the hype. You haven't made it to the majors and the hof wants your bat? lol

Brennen Davis’ ceiling appeared limitless. After hammering a pair of home runs en route to MVP honors at the 2021 SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game, Cooperstown was already calling -- they wanted to display his bat at the National Baseball Hall of Fame

Mitch Haniger 2.0?

I'd be shopping Arozarena at this point..

I wouldn't bet $100 that he'd have better numbers this season at 31 years old than any of:

Robles
Raley
Davis
Julio
Canzone

There's only so many at bats to go around, and they could still get a decent return for Randy.

He had a .679 OPS in the second half. At some point you're just better off moving on from some guys.

I'd be seeing what offers we could get. Even just for a big bullpen arm? Pretty tempting.

I was kinda thinking that, but I don't think haniger took this long. I don't know a thing about Davis other than he has suffered some injuries.
