They promised him an all you can eat buffet if he got through5 innings giving up less than 3 runs.

Tellez had given him a tip on the best local buffet 

Drury, Renfroe and Urshela are looking like good additions.

...and Orioles....

Terrible news. Have to feel for the lad, he was doing superbly

I don't know if you guys have similar but there is a TV show over here called "Four in a bed" (nowhere near as exciting as it sounds!) The owners of four different small hotels take it in turns to spend a night at each others establishment. And then they critique how they found it. And it can get a bit nasty sometimes - people don't like their pride and joy business being slated. But one of the frequent discussion points is baked beans with breakfast. Some will say, "we are posh, we don't serve beans" others, "breakfast without beans? WTF?"

The latter is most definitely the correct attitude!

But fried pigs blood? Hmm.... 

Wow!

The worst part for me is knowing that in game two the Angels will hit like ten homers and win 15-1 and you'll think, "just a couple of those in the first game would have been useful!"

Nice video. I wasn't happy to be reminded of that stupid cowboy hat. "Well done, you didn't strike out this time, let's party around and celebrate that weeny achievement". I hope it's gone in the dustbin!! 

Adell seems to be in the line up every day

Sure, that explains 'what' happened but not really 'why'. Ok, with the power of hindsight, but it just seems such a dumbass decision?

What is the reason Moreno "chose not to invest" in Latin America? Seems a no brainer?

Thanks for this AJ. It was good to follow last winter/spring.

Can you include their respective salaries? It might help me decide....

I'm not a fan of being subjected to watching/listening to the dugout interview with a Mariners player.

If you want to do that on an alternate broadcast, fine. But there should be a fully normal broadcast that just concentrates on the game.

Spot on, I turned on to watch the game not a dam Seattle player interview

I know all that and yet it was surprising they left.

AGAIN, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Angels left. That’s all.

But...how would you feel if the Angels left?

I thought Silseth was the current 6th starter?

Could someone explain to me the point of this move?

Players: let’s do something that’s fun and builds good camaraderie!

Fans: cut it out, losers.

Sometimes I question how many of you have ever played sports.

How about trying something like winning - that would build good camaraderie too

This one is easy. None. 

100% agree on this. Burn that bloody hat. Celebrate when you win a game - if you can ever manage that. 

I've only just caught up on this story - since when was there a Double Play Derby?

They'll win Ohtani's starts and nothing else. Maybe one additional game if Trout hits 3+ hr's and 8+ rbi's

And not strikeout the next 30 at bats

Trout can’t help the bullpen which seems to implode every time the offense clicks 

Twice?

It's pretty depressing that its not even the All star break and we're already discussing how to rebuild for next season
