    I'm glad the mariners are self destructing before june, nice to get that shit out of the way early. Christ they had a shit closer last year, good job on getting a new one who blows back to back one run fucking games.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    I tell you what, I have no opinion on Jose Batista as a person or a player but it was quite enjoyable seeing him get punched in the face.

    That wasn't your usual "baseball fight" punch either. Like we've all seen enough "fights" in baseball to know what to expect: a bit of shoving, an airmailed punch that doesn't connect, lots of posturing.

    This was not that. That was a legit blow. Bautista looked like he had no idea where he was while Beltre was holding him out of the rest of the fight.

    Edit: really no one comes out of that mess looking good. Pretty much everyone involved on both teams looks like some form of immature jerk.

    Except Beltre. Beltre comes out looking good cause he clearly identified that Bautista wasn't really there anymore and kept him out of the resulting scrum so he couldn't get even more hurt.

    Edit 2: and Fielder. Forgot about him. He came out looking great too when the Jays plunked him in the bottom of the inning (which REALLY Jays?). He just smiled and laughed it off. Had he reacted aggressively at all it could have easily set off another big - possibly even nastier - brawl.

    You would think Odor would be the last person to get chippy about a hard slide into second base. Which as far as i can tell, could have been legal (could he reasonably stay on the base after the slide? If so, then its legal, he went straight into the bag and did not deflect to interfere with the runner)

    It looked like he was going to slide well past it, like Bats was aiming at the plant leg.

    Past, but not well past. He starts that slide 6 inches earlier and its clearly legal since he would have remained on the base.

    That is why the umpires had to take time to rule on it(you have to make a legit attempt to stay on the base and it must be possible to do so, but that does not mean you must succeed)

    I initially thought this was about bautista's bat flip from a while ago and was like "really guys", but now that I know it's because of a hard slide, yeah. fuck bautista, get that stuff outta the game

    maybe beating it out isn't the BEST way to do it but hey, whatever works

    No, it's about the bat flip. He wouldn't have punched him in the face for the slide if there wasn't anything else to it. I mean, Odor has made far more dirty slides into second, so it's very hypocritical for him to get so mad about a hard slide (that was straight at the base).

    The slide was literally 6 inches from legal and initially ruled legal (on the field). It wasn't about the slide.

    Had nothing to do with the slide. That was just an excuse to start something else in further retaliation for the bat flip. The hard slide was retaliation for the Rangers waiting until Bautista's last at bat of the regular season against Texas before beaning him in the ribs.

    Bush league all around.

    Man between Ortiz's "How Are You 40?" season and Jackie Bradley Jr deciding to be unstoppable (just singled to extend his hitting streak to 27 games), this team is just ridiculous.

    If we can get our Rotation in order and get a little better production out of LF, pretty sure we'd be the team to beat in the AL

    I'm going to the mariners game Friday night, against the twins, with Felix pitching

    it's as sure fire a game to win as we've had in the past decade

    but we're at home so we'll probably lose 2-0

    2-0? Oh god no that's going to be a 13-0. I'm honestly just glad they didn't get swept by the fucking As.

    Taijuan just lost 5-0. Wade Miley has the best record on the team, I forgot where we got him but he's been great.

    Miley's been your worst starter! he's a great no. 5 though. 200 innings, money in the bank, which is underrated

    The As sent us a new AAA player as a sacrifice tonight. It wasn't enough so we sacrificed their bullpens ERAs too.

    All reality I kinda feel sorry for him. It's his first start in the majors and his family flys up from SC and the camera kept cutting to them and they just look really unhappy.

    we have the 1st, 2nd, and 5th in the AL in batting average. we have some of the top guys in the league in WRC+. we have a .297 team batting average for god's sake

    its based on a fluky high babip and we're getting some very favorable sequencing but by god i'm enjoying it
