not at all. It’s the vent thread. I think a lot of people here are disappointed so far. It’s going to improve but it’s going to take a lot of changes. 

that's true without a doubt.  so why go straight to the 'gonna be a long 12 years for Trout'?  

I'm as frustrated as the next guy but that's just dumb.

Does anyone think that the Mariners are this good?  They look excellent thus far.

They'll finish below .500 when its all said and done, just like the Angels. Nothing to see here

Just talking out of frustration. Nothing to it. It will get better.

they're being led by Beckham, Santana and Healy.  Not bad players but they're out of their mind right now.

This is going to be a long season

April has just started and it feels like the season is already a month long.

Well, last night's game was one heck of an April Fool's Joke.  Glad it wasn't real.

I can only imagine, since I'm blocking him again by putting him on ignore.

No, gonna be a long April and May, and then we can concentrate on golf and summertime fun.

My brother's taking me to the U.S. Open in Pebble Beach. First time.

 

(Actually, I'll continue to follow the team as I am loyal and a confirmed masochist.)

Can’t wait for 650 at bats for Justin Bour. Hoping he can eclipse the ten hit barrier

But he looks like a slugger, so there's at least that.

Ok, everyone who thinks Bour gets 650 at bats raise your hand.  So far we have one.  Anyone else?  Anyone?

He doesn’t even deserve 65 ABs

Ok, cool story.  Going into the off season it was predicted he would get about $4.5 million contract.  The Angels got him for $2.5 million.  So besides the Angels, it was expected that he deserved more than 65 at bats.  I believe I will try patience because more times than not impatient people are idiots.

Nice play by Cozart and even better pick by Bour.

Josh Harrison is batting .091

Well that settles it. Nevermind that he's been a 5.5 WAR player over his past three years whereas La Stella is 1.1 for his career. 

 

Harrison:  .156 BA   .212/.233/.445  just placed on the IL 

2019 bWAR:

Harrison:  -0.8

La Stella:  0.5 

 

therefore, I agree.
