Seattle Mariners

[Docwaukee]

pretty awesome to go up there and kick them in the nuts for four games.  

For them though, the real pain is losing Paxton to the DL.   Paxton is a stud having a break out year pitching like a #1 or close to it.  Perhaps not being able to get too deep into games was holding him back a bit.  They literally have just an absolutely dreadful rotation now.  Felix on the DL.  Iwakuma likely out for the year.   They were already one of the worst in the league and now they are likely going to be the worst going forward.   Their pen has been middle of the pack but they've thrown quite a few innings.  Their offense will still be good.  

We've got six games left vs. them.  Another away and then to close out the season at home for our last three games.   

Not ready to get overly confident as of yet because I think they could be in a position to be spoilers against us in that final series.  

But that was such a nice little F U to Jerry and co.

You gents are forgetting something. On our side, we have the Rally Richter, a force so strong that it can overcome a Nolasco start and awaken the bat of Pujols in the same game.

Haha!! 

Two games that I've attended this year up here and I've gotten Nolasco both times, resulting in two wins.

Anyone seen Ender the last four games or did he Dipoto.

[Lou]

He's with ANAHEIMBOB 

[Glen]

Nothing like celebrating in mid-August. I hope Lou doesn't bump this thread at the end of September.

By then this is all that will remain of the Mariners. 

[Angel Dog and Beer]

I was out of town the past 4 days and didn't watch or hear the scores of any of the games. I was blown away on Sunday after seeing the scores. Fook Seattle. 

[Angel Dog and Beer]

Yeah, I was blown away to see we currently have the second wild card. Oh well, there's still plenty of baseball left, but its getting fun.

Solid pitching beats solid hitting.

Yep. Lots of that this past weekend. Loved it.

Mariners bullpen gives up 13 runs this series, while Angels bullpen gives up only 3

We love Seattle's pitching staff. Thanks Jerry.

The team ought to fly you in for all of Nolasco's remaining starts.

Same here. Just came back from Vegas and see we're in the 2nd Wild Card spot. I should go to Vegas more often.

You don't go into a sportsbook?

Crazy how many people spend this much time on here but don't open a sports app to check on their favorite team in a "pivotal" series.  

[zenmaster]

Vegas doesn't allow the use of smart phones I guess. (or gambling)

I actually didn't this time, dude. Usually do.

I've never gone to Vegas without hitting a sportsbook. Hell, it's my first stop and I'm there constantly.

do you gamble?

Lookout Landing is a gem. I go there all the time, just because their recaps are brilliant, hilarious, snarky, cynical. Entertaining all the time.
