Superman wears Trevor Plouffe underwear...holy cow what a play.

Re: 7/2 - 7/8 Game Discussion Thread

Oh my goodness, what a play by Plouffe. And contrary to popular belief, the Tigers fans were yelling Plou-urns, not booing, after he got the DP.

Surprised no one has mentioned that the M's are getting no hit through 7 against the Orioles' Wei-Yin Chen...

What a pathetic baseball team we have.

That play was half hops half Dick Bremer, he totally called it. What a psychic.

How can you not be romantic about baseball?

Dang.

Actually, I like Casper Wells and think he has somewhat of a future in Seattle. I wish I could say that for some of our other players.

Justin Smoak resides in Bust City. Dustin Ackley looks insanely over matched at times, but I think he'll figure it out. Miguel Olivo is a bum, as is Brendan Ryan (I know he saves runs, he's a great defensive SS, but he is terrible offensively). Kyle Seager has came back down to earth as has Michael Saunders. Ichiro has experienced a steep decline over the past two years.

So sick of this team's crap... Another wasted start for Felix. The team can't perform when he takes the hill, and I think it has a huge mental effect on how he pitches. He was good tonight, but once again was getting zero support so he suffered a couple of bad innings. At that point, he knew his start and the game was over. It's unbelievable to me that this team has wasted seven years of Felix Hernandez...

Sorry to get long winded... Just so sick of this putrid franchise. I wish they would have got no-hit again and I hope they continued to get spanked. That's the only thing that will possibly get some things done. This franchise is broken and despite a good farm system, they will not contend for a long time.

Re: 7/2 - 7/8 Game Discussion Thread

Can't wait for the post game interviews so I can hear the players cry about how mean big, bad Safeco Field is to them and then hear Wedge complain about how bad his team sucks.

Re: 7/2 - 7/8 Game Discussion Thread

Like I said last night, this team is done. They used up all of their talent and good luck in April and May. Poor excuse of a franchise like usual.

I feel your pain...

I am surprised the M's tied it up.. It was them collectively giving me the finger after my last few threads here I think.

Ugh...thank you. Of all people to deliver heroics, Robert freaking Andino.
