    It's early but isn't just as easy to imagine the Moroners going 65-97 as 90-72?

    Much easier. The odds of them losing 90 are substantially better than the odds of them winning 90.

    No reason to have any kind of panic until at least 2-3x through the rotation.

    Baseball season needs to be cut down to 16 games, one game a week. Then the M's could start F-bomb every game and win multiple championships.

    It is early, but the team has some issues. The rotation and bullpen will likely be a little worse than last year. Logan Morrison is a horrible everyday 1B. Cano losing his power is worrisome too. They need .300 with 20+ HR's from him or they won't score enough.

    morrison as the everyday 1b is not ideal and the bullpen is probably worse, but you are way jumping the gun on cano. all they need is production, not a ton of power and he's been stinging the ball right at people

    morrison is who he is. he's roughly an average hitter, with average 1B defense, who has trouble with durability. the mariners could obviously do better but they could also do worse

    Some of you should actually watch the games before commenting on them.

    This, he's not a huge problem at the moment. The biggest issue in their lineup are the corner outfield spots.

    long term yes. If smith is healthy rf should be fine. In lf ackley is off to a good start but I still worry that hes going to turn into old ackley again. My biggest concern is zunino. I know he had 2 hits yesterday but 75% of the time he still looks completely lost at the plate
