Craig fae the Vale Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 Another overnight loss to the Tigers for the Mariners. Looks like that recent good run wasn't sustainable. Going to need a big last month to sustain a playoff push. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP Crawford should be back within the next couple weeks and hopefully that can be a bit of a spark. A season that promised so much looking like it might well fizzle out unceremoniously. Again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Khaki Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 (edited) Dodgers drop back-to-back games in Milwaukee. NL West lead now just 2 games over the Snakes and Pads. I'm sure the lead was something like 8 a month ago. It's will be hilarious if they shit this up with their payroll and all the future contract Rangersy bollocks going on.

I reckon if we miss out on the playoffs Servais is gone probably the best starting pitching rotation in my 15 years of following the Mariners and the season is being brought to a crushing halt by a bullpen who would struggle to get a game at Double A. It's horrendous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtie23 Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Pirates on a 10 game losing streak……so the Mariners come into town and give them a win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 (edited) Mariners avoided being swept in Pittsburgh with a really good win last night. An excellent start from George Kirby. Dodgers away for 3 starting tomorrow, which is about as tough as it gets, but can hopefully take something from the series. Astros starting to pull away in the division, massive last few weeks of the season needed if we're to sneak into the playoffs.

lichtie23 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Mariners fall to the Dodgers 3-0. Woo superb again, Gavin Stone for LA was better. No offence and the bullpen gives up 2 more runs. 5 games back of Houston now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arthurlie1981 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Not sure I can take much more of this Mets season. Wrote it off in May, thought we would 100% get play offs in June then since the All Star Break ive no clue what Mets team is going to turn up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the best moments of the season. Tough stretch coming up but we might still sneak in. The record against teams over .500 would suggest it won't be a very deep run if so but if Senga is healthy who knows. I could really see Lindor producing if we do make the play offs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 This is an unforgivable stat. Wasting what is the finest starting rotation in all my years following the Mariners. This rotation should be a World Series contender. A slack bullpen and misfiring offence and I doubt we'll even make the playoffs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The starting rotation is good enough to be challenging, but I can't help but feel it will be a few years of a rebuilding project. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Swept by the Dodgers, 8 losses in the past 9 games, it's the classic August Mariners collapse. I don't know why I'm surprised, but I was so optimistic this year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Matt Waldron is totally cooked and needs sent down. He doesn't have an out pitch, and the Knuckler is getting slapped. He's done ok for his first full year starting, but I think the innings have caught up and his arm is done. His starts since the ASG have been horrendous. Still, looks like Tatis is likely back in early September, so some good news at least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
