King Felix looks like he might be good again. Sad.

Nope. His previous stuff is gone forever.

That Mariner’s +17 run differential while leading the division is screaming good luck right now.

 

pretty annoying nonetheless

So, my question; why would Briceno call for all those walks with two outs?

C'mon.. you know who really calls the pitches....

Hint.. he's also the GM.

None of these relievers has confidence.    It’s a joke.

I would take a guy that can consistently hit his spot and has no confidence over someone who is full of confidence and cannot hit his spot consistently.

Keep winning series against teams that you're suppose to beat! Good job, and a great effort from Skaggs today, even though the bullpen, like always, made the game a lot interesting later! 

[Angel Oracle]

These relievers neither have the confidence nor the command.

All I can say is people bitching about wins need a timeout.

Really there isn’t anything to bitch about today, it was as solid of a win you could have asked for other than Anderson making it a little interesting at the end but we have had plenty of time to bitch about the pen. Save it for another day lol

And at least two of the walks allowed in the 9th were Ks, one was a check swing strike and the other was clearly all over the strike zone.

[Angel Oracle]

Head of the umps, Country Bumpkin Joe West, has made the umps worse than ever.

I think it is less about confidence and more about lacking control of all of his pitches, then he gets a strike or two called a ball and yea.  

Well lack of control and knowing he doesn’t have it leads to lack of confidence, so same deal. Ya he did get screwed on 2 calls.

To be fair i don't think he assumed going into the season that he would be closing games after never pitching past double-a in his entire career. Too much to ask of him and he has done a good job considering the circumstances so far.

That explains it then. I knew had to be too fresh to handle things. Hopefully he’ll adjust as the season goes along.
