Sorry I missed the intro to the Detroit series. IRL issues got in the way.

Probables:

Fri: Logan Gilbert RHP (7-8, 2.91 ERA, 149 SO) vs Paul Skenes RHP (6-2, 2.25 ERA, 115 SO) Apple+ TV

Sat: Luis Castillo RHP (10-11, 3.40 ERA, 148 SO) vs Bailey Falter LHP (5-7, 4.07 ERA, 67 SO)

Sun: George Kirby RHP (8-9, 3.42 ERA, 143 SO) vs TBD

2 runners on in both the 1st and 2nd. We're having great at-bats vs Skenes. Just need that clutch hit with RISP.

Rojas batting .170 the last 3 months. Lmfao. Great decision letting Geno go! (he probably wanted out honestly)

Wow, hard to watch and listen to. No watch with it being
on apple. Don’t vomit Clint.

This is getting extremely difficult to watch…very disappointing that we just can’t seem to get any consistency at the plate at all. If they can’t take advantage of this starting pitching, unfortunately (or fortunately depending on who you are) changes have to be made in leadership, it is what it is at this point. I just don’t see a sustained recovery happening with 39 games left.

I can see a recovery happening, it's going be a late hot run with beating
Houston.
Call me crazy but it really can be done.

I'm kind of enjoying this giant sh*t show that is the Seattle Mariners.

If they don't make the playoff I hope they bomb the end of the season.

Lol. Bad defense, bad bullpen, heinously atrocious offense.

They were pretty much a dumpster fire already, but it looks like someone threw a 55 gallon drum of jet fuel in the dumpster.

What better way to end the game than bases loaded 0 outs and you don't score at all?

I'm enjoying it also.

I started to root against them back when Jack Z the fraud was GM.

A series with the Dodgers is next.

Gonna be fun.

Let's get that losing streak to 8! :)

I checked out on the Mariners when that June lead evaporated. The writing was on the wall. I wasn't going to put myself through any more unnecessary frustration. I'm pretty much down to the box scores and a gaze at the standings.

They showed a graphic at the start of the bottom of the 6th. M's bullpen is 5th worst in MLB since the All Star break with an ERA of 5. Sooo, ya know, that sucks.

Any chance they can make up a four game deficit with the Assholes?
Will the worst MLB franchise overtake arguably the most successful franchise of the last decade? I think you know the answer here.

What a streaky team. Concerns for playoffs, obviously.
