    Flagged because 7-9.

    Holding a team's record against a player who plays once every 5 days makes sense.

    It makes sense when that player chose to stay with a franchise full of loosers.

    Yeah I never understood that. The funny thing is, when most stars bail on a franchise the city hates them for it. If Felix wouldn't have signed the extension a couple years ago, most Seattle fans would pretty much say "good for you" because of how shitty the franchise has been. Now most Seattle fans wouldn't feel the same because they're FS and so eager to buy into the franchise's bullshit that they really believed the M's were going to the world series. What this told me about Felix is he's not really an elite competitor. Elite pitcher? Absofuckinglutely. But what most great players have in them is a desire to be the best and win championships (or so I'm told. I just want to collect a paycheck so ma' doesn't kick me out). Felix would rather stay in Seattle. More power to him, I love seeing him pitch. But he'd given the franchise every opportunity to put out a winner and they've given him shit. If he would have left, I would have rooted like hell for him to get a ring.

    I like to criticize elite, future hall of fame players for being shitty, lazy and uncompetitive from my couch where I mainline cheetos and Mt. Dew... it's what I like to do.

    Felix is flat out unbelievable ... he'll definitely go down as one of those generational players.

    I criticize Felix for choosing to stay in Seattle instead of going to a REAL MLB team and I criticize him for that shitty Macklemore commercial.

    He's a great pitcher. Water is wet.

    he's never won 20 games in a season. Yes he's been saddled with shitty run support, but he needs a few of those 20 win seasons before going down as an all-time great.

    Or, he could just rack up a trophy case full of cy young awards. At some point he will need to win a championship... like RJ.
