this will obviously jinx him
but Gavin’s methods should play pretty well in Safeco

you can go ahead and cancel the postgame show.
thanks a LOT, colin. CLEARLY, this game has already been ruined.

Mariners Fans
On serious suicide watch right now. Let’s push them over the edge with another knockout inning early.

that's true
i took a look at what’s going on at their sportsblog natino site. they are frustrated as hell. pretty good sense of humor about it, too. i got a good laugh out of it.

I would think that after 2007...
White Sox fans would be sympathetic.
Come on, Nick, turn it around soon.

So are we willing to just say that losing skid was bad luck from the bats yet?
I know SSH has been running around using that sarcastically for a while, but c’mon.

While i'm not convinced the offense is good
i do think that it was uncharacteristically awful during that stretch in part because of bad luck. i think we have a slightly above average offense, but as long as we continue to have really good pitching, that should be good enough

well at least it might not be too much to say
that they both have a good shot at playing above average defense. not that that would make up the missing .250 points of OPS between them.

disappointed in that 3-2 fastball to walk him
i thought at that point he ought’ve thrown his best pitch. That should be his curve. Also, I doubt he was trying to miss with that fastball.
So yes, guilt is creeping.

just a goshdarned minute there, feisty. in my 50 years in baseball, i've not seen another young righty finally
realizing some of his potential who could induce a comebacker with the bases loaded and nobody out like gavin floyd can.
