    I'm a big run differential guy.

    The Pittsburgh Pirates are the only team in baseball with a worse run differential than the Mariners while also having a better record. This tells me that the Mariners and Pirates both have a win/loss the exceeds what it should be. So, the Mariners are actually playing worse than what their 23-26 record indicates. This might be the best it gets for the Mariners this season.

    This is true.

    HOWEVER they also had an incredible run differential when they were winning, one that seemed (and was) unsustainably good.

    I expect we’ll find the same thing with what we’re seein now. I think they’re playing worse than they are. The losses will continue but the ass kickings will slow down.

    They are 10 - 25 since their hot start (that would net 65 wins over a full season). They definitely are as bad as that stat would indicate.

    Based on what though? Our roster talent would certainly suggest that this nice 10-26 run we're on is definitely sustainable. I for one see a nice of summer ass kickings incoming.

    Good news is that we have some hawt recruiting action to keep us all captivated.

    That's my point. I'm saying their record is better than what it should be.

    I don't have anything against Scott Servais, but the truth is that he can go 40-162 but because he's in Seattle he's got 100% job security.

    I wouldn’t go that far. Management always needs a scapegoat.
