    The M's seem to be the pick by a lot of experts this year

    The season must be over

    This is the Cliff Lee season all over again. The team had overachieved (for the M's) and won 80 something games. Now with Cliff Lee Nelson Cruz, no reason to think they won't win 90 plus.

    M's win 70 games and Jack Z will still have his job.
    Apples and oranges, but believe what you like

    Free Fries at McDonald's every time the Mariners score 5 or more runs in a game!... and no, they don't have to win the game for you to WIN! free fries.

    If this promotion isn't the epitome of Mariner-ism, I don't know what is.

    Watched a couple innings of the Orioles on MASN yesterday and if the Orioles score 5 runs in a WIN, you get some sort of free pizza deal. But makes sense in Seattle you don't have to win.

    The new revamped Seattle lineup has scored 4, 0, 3, 0 5 runs. Good for a scintillating 2.4 runs per game through 5. Just wait till Jack Z gets his own guys in there. You can't expect to win big in just 7 years.

    There's no reason that you can't be pissed AND show appreciation.

    For many, there were no expectations last year. I got resoundingly skewered at the beginning of the year when I said that they'd win 85+.

    They should win 95+ this year.

    I agree but the fans shouldn't have done it right after they were eliminated. It's Seattle though so noone should be surprised. We got a lot of faggy individual awards for making the playoffs and finishing third one year in a CYO League. That was 25 years ago.
