I know 99% of this board hates Bart, but if JD feels like he can help improve our rotation I'm all for it.

Even though there is pretty much no chance of Price coming here, I'm still hoping!

[CanadianHalo]

12 in a row now. 3 straight ground outs in the fourth.

[CanadianHalo]

Fwiw he pitched 8 innings against Oakland earlier in the year only allowing 1ER.

His worst out was against us on that Sunday afternoon when Trout, Pujols and Ibanez went back to back to back.

[CanadianHalo]

15 in a row.

Walker's had some control issues today. Just walked the last 2 to load the bases up. Leaves in the 6th with bases loaded none out. He also smoked Tejada in the top of the head last inning

[CaliAngel]

I don't think Bart left on bad terms did he?

Would I give him a shot here? Why the hell not.

He should not be in the majors. He is 21 and really never pitched in his life up until high school .... just another instance of the Mariners rushing their prospects and ruining them.

 

See Ackley, Miller, Walker and Zunino's offensive capabilities.

Just like we ruined trout

8 pitch inning for the big guy. 18 in a row now.

Ender, I think I saw a stat earlier today across one of the tickers basically stating Bartolo owns you guys? He's what Bud Norris is to the Angels.

Yeah, he does own us. But still ... being perfecto'd by him is ****ing embarrassing.

Colon pitches well in the AL West

And is on the block

MORE RELIEVERS

[Ender]

The only thing that will save us against the Orioles is that they have to face Felix and Iwakuma.

[DoubleOffTheWall]

FATOLO!

[nando714]

12-1 2.10 era in 14 starts at safeco for Andre the giant

[nando714]

Perfect game broken up by robbie cano

[CanadianHalo]

Robbie breaks up perfect game. Don't need Bart pitching a perfect game and actually have some trade value.

[CanadianHalo]

Miller came within a foot of tying this game up. Mariners in business bottom of 8. Colon leaves with runners on 2nd and 3rd, 1 out

[Hollyw00d]

Big Fart ran out of gas

I have a problem with the cheating. I have a bigger problem with mlb letting make millions even after they are caught cheating.

Oakland didn't care. Lead them to 2 division titles. Maybe only 1 can't remember

Meh.

If you aren't cheating, you aren't trying.

I want to win, don't care how.

So if you get caught you are banned for life?

Final from Safeco... 3-2 Mets
