    Nice 0-7 start for Jarred Kelenic. I almost feel bad for him. I would be desperately hoping to get traded if I were him.

    I'm a fairweather Mariners fan. If they're doing well, I'll get into them. If not, I'm not wasting 650+ hours watching their games.

    But every time it looks like they might have a chance to make the playoffs, are on a big win streak, etc... I'll start to pay attention and then they take a huge dump. Every single time going back to my childhood. This year is starting to look the same.

    I am much the same way, but I will say this...Once they are done with the Yanks, they have a very comfortable schedule ahead. They got some complimentary pieces at the deadline, and they got the top available starting pitcher on the market.

    They aren't as good as the Yankees or Astros, but they don't have to be. They've got 3 big time starters now, and that's what wins in the playoffs.

    The season starts September 1st.

    Get healthy, get it done...

    Great road trip. Take 3 of 7 from the 2 best teams in the AL and lose Julio and Ty halfway through. Castillo was fucking dominant today.

    He's filthy. The Ms have a glut of nasty, hard throwing right handers.

    Did it all with Torrens catching, who couldn’t frame a fucking pitch to save his life and CB Bucknor one of the worst home player umpires in the history of the MLB. Look at this “walk” from yesterday:

    Yanks seemed to be getting every close call on balls and strikes. Imagine that. Even a guy who NY desperately wanted to trade for, who was the best pitcher available, can't get any respect from the umps against them.

    Heard some duck math. The Mariners have the best record since June 20
