    Basically every year somebody becomes a Moog and posts a "Mariners baby!" thread. And basically every year we face disappointment by May.

    I'm still here. Still waiting to see what happens when/if Haniger and Lewis can get back.

    You don't want to play Seattle in Seattle, you just don't.

    Everyone says the roster this year is an improvement over last year, but last year's team winning 92 games was fool's gold. That was really an 80 win team and this year probably maxes out at 85, tops.

    The one hope, as has been pointed out, is that the team is legitimately young and a couple valuable guys are out right now. The schedule for the rest of May is rough and they may find themselves 10 games under .500 by the end of the month.

    Bump.

    Everyone wins 60, everyone loses 60, it's a 42 game season...It's not fun to watch right now, but last year the Braves were under .500 until August 8th. IDK what will happen, but I know it's not gonna happen without Haniger...

    If you don’t believe that Kelenic is useless, you are dumb. Nobody turns out good after hitting .173 in over 400 at bats. He’s striking out twice a game for Tacoma so far too. He’s a bust.

    Plenty of players struggle when initially called up. They don’t struggle for this long and this consistently. There has been no improvement and if anything, he’s getting worse.

    Maybe years down the line he will be a solid big leaguer. A league average type player. It will never happen in Seattle.

    Dipoto made some good moves on paper, but he’s gotta go. He had plenty of time.
