Great game! Picked up a game used ball and base.

Wife and I are on our way home after spending the weekend in Seattle. M's are 3-0 in games we've attended this year.....just sayin

[Verufian]

Cruz!

[pgisback]

Mariners bats are absolutely on fire!!! With the way their pitchers are pitching, if they could just be consistent they could make a run for the playoffs. Probably not going to catch Houston.

[pgisback]

Damnnnnnn, Ms are on fire!!!!

[jason122883]

This team is fun to watch. Just need to be consistent

[REGGIE206]

Happy to see Jean Segura get a contract extension: 5 years $70 million:)!

Couldn't be happier, except if he was healthy lol

[jason122883]

Couldn't be happier, except if he was healthy lol

Just needs to learn how to slide.

Honestly feel like we got quite the bargain on him. With as good of a hitter as he is, I bet on the open market he could get 20M. Especially considering he plays SS. Though I feel he is better suited for 2b

[jason122883]

With Haniger coming back, what do you guys think of the OF? My thought was the it would be Gamel/Heredia/Haniger with Dyson getting some starts, but mainly being the 4th OF, late game PR

[Devi8or]

tough to say, I think Haniger is a lock, Gamel has been getting reps at 1B in warmups, but Valencia has come along nicely lately. I think Heredia and Gamel have played beyond my expectations. Would guess that you see Haniger as the only lock with the other 3 rotating spots to keep them all fresh

[jason122883]

NTC for Segura. I like it. With his age, even if we went on to rebuild, he was worth keeping

[jason122883]

I LOVE ZUNINO!

Whenever he struggles, or has amazing weeks, I think of your collection. I thought he was gonna be a beast. He has mainly just driven me nuts.

If he can be a .240 hitter who hits 25 HR a year, with his defense, I am good

[pgisback]

Ugh. I finally made peace with the fact that this guy was an AAAA player, and then he has an invincible week.

Yea, talk about a surprise, haha. Just two weeks ago I was talking with my Seattle buddies about why Zunino is even playing right now. Dude was striking out every at bat, batting .150, had couple bad plays behind the plate that game. It was miserable. And 2 weeks later he's unstoppable. Great to see. I hope it continues.

[jason122883]

Though doubtful, I would still love to see Gallardo be the one to go when Felix comes back.

[crtsports]

Get that belly button squared and hit a homerun. Thank you Bones!

[metallicalex777]

Though doubtful, I would still love to see Gallardo be the one to go when Felix comes back.

Gallardo stresses me out every game. Thank the baseball lords our teams bats have been on fire for just this reason.

And ZUNINO!!! I really hope we see his consistency. As stated earlier, I too would be happy if he could hit .225-.250 with 20ish dingers a year consistently. His defense is far too great for him not to perform on a daily level.

And I would love for this (and my rainbow) to increase value a bit :)

I would assume heredia is still the fourth outfield. Dysons defense is superior to everyone else. Tops in the league in runs saved I believe. Im sure he'll still play often though

[Yaboi07]

Also gallardo should be as good as gone as soon as another live body comes around from the DL. Dude can't avoid the big inning. This years trumbo trade for sure

[REGGIE206]

Go Mariners!

[linderaaron]

Let's keep it rolling mariners!!!

[jason122883]

Without doing the research, if we win tonight, I think that may be the first time we've been over .500 all year.

[RW3FAN]

BJ fans can go to Capitol Hill and get a bag of Dick's.

[pgisback]

Sold out! Nice to see. Can't wait to get back and catch some games.

Haven't seen Paxton struggle like this. Oh well, he's due for a bad performance.

[jason122883]

Luckily we are winning, because this Umpire is God awful. Strikes a foot off the plate

Ha, Ruiz is pitching. This is ridiculous

Pitched better than Bergman :)

[REGGIE206]

20-7 and still at the 8th inning? That looks like a basketball score after a first quarter! :eek: :(

[pgisback]

Zuninooooooo!!! Dudes beasting

[jason122883]

19 RBI in June for Zunino

[pgisback]

Brutal start for Miranda. Getting absolutely smashed.

[jason122883]

Paxton has not looked good these last two outings

[jason122883]

Gallardo has to go. Bergman was really disappointing in his last start, but I am willing to roll the dice on him over Yovani. Pretty much every start Gallardo is good to have a 4-5 run inning. It's ridiculous

On the plus side. Zunino is killing the ball right

[NeedChapmans]

WTF is going on!

[billbanning]

WTF is going on!

Everything we hoped Zunino would do! I can't believe how hot he is right now!

[jason122883]

WTF is going on!

If you still have your collection, it may be starting to get a faint hearbeat. Obviously not close to what you paid for it. But much more value than it was worth the last couple years

[NeedChapmans]

Getting closer, but not quite there yet. Get to .270 by the break and bring the K total down a bit, and then we'll talk.

All the same, it's a weird feeling to have watched him for four years and know when he's up in a big situation ... all of a sudden it's like he's actually going to pull through. So strange.

[crtsports]

Zunino! Love it!

[GoHawks25]

Can't wait to get Segura, Felix and Kuma back! Hopefully we can stay healthy, I really like the lineup. Lots of young talent!! I'm a mariners fan, but I'm more of a football collector. I have a few Mariners stuff for sale and I thought I'd post a link here. Go M's :)!

#4 prospect Andrew Moore gets called up today and Bergman goes down to AAA. Greg Johns is hearing that he is taking over Gallardo's spot, which would be tomorrow. Pretty excited to see him in the bigs.

When Danny V was really struggling at 1st I was thinking about how Ackley couldn't even be worse over there. I have a soft spot in my heart for Dustin. Unfortunately, I think he is just done. He is not doing well in AAA this year either

[Devi8or]

He's starting Thursday according to Servais. Gallardo to the pen as long relief

My mind tells me one thing but my heart says another. I wanted to see Dustin catch on with an NL team to see if that helped. I'm still holding onto hope!

[jason122883]

Dyson broke up Verlander's perfect game with a bunt, and it all kinda fell apart for him after that. I know if it were the other way around, I'd be pissed about the bunt

Cano is struggling bad.

Cruz has pulled us within 1. Seager comin up, 2 on, 2 out

[Firerunner4]

That bunt was awesome

The unwritten rules of baseball are absolutely insane. It's not like it was the 9th inning, it was the 6th inning and his team was still in it! Started a rally!

If you search his name on twitter, people are calling him classless but in the same tweet calling for physical violence and career ending injuries. People are insane

I'm ok with the guys saying drill him next AB. If he takes one on the ass or arm, I'll be ok, and he will wreak havoc on the bases.

The injury talk is always so ridiculous

[Firerunner4]

Haniger! Absolute rocket

That's what he needed to do to change it up. Be aggressive early.

Never understood that unwritten rule even if the 9th. So the third baseman against a speedster no longer has to worry about playing up because it would be a 'cheap' play or whatever? I don't get it, a batter shouldn't have to give up a weapon in his arsenal just because the pitcher has the H column with a 0. Not like you'd expect a power hitter to not hit a homerun so a fielder has a chance to make the play to preserve it but a speedster has to give up the bunt, it's stupid.

Agreed, the biggest part of Dyson's game is his speed, no reason he shouldn't be allowed to use it. The game was just over half way over, makes no sense to cater to the other teams pitcher because of an unwritten rule. That's like telling me you shouldn't be able to bunt against the shift

I don't care if it happens to the Mariners in that situation, there was a lot of baseball left. Dyson did what he needed to in order to get some life onto the base paths, clearly it worked

[pgisback]

Damn!! Mariners have a chance this year if Gamel and Zunino keep this up. Dangerous!!

[jason122883]

Nice to hit a Grand Slam when you think you missed it

Good night to come back around Robbie

And with Gamel, Zunino, and Haniger come back down to earth a little for the time being, it really hurts. Also, our bullpen hasn't been as sharp lately, which no surprise there. Let's get to their bullpen and pull this one out!

Yeah. With that kinda surgery at this point in the season, and rehab it would take for him to get back on a mound. I assume he is set for a 2019 return

[billbanning]

Anyone think it would be a good idea to move Robbie and Nelson down a spot in the lineup? I'd love to see what Gamel could do from the 3 hole....that being said Servais will never do that....ever.

[billbanning]

Also, with Smyly out the next 18 months, anyone think Oakland would swing Peterson for Gray?

[jason122883]

Also, with Smyly out the next 18 months, anyone think Oakland would swing Peterson for Gray?

Probably not. I'd love to get something out of Peterson at this point too though, as he is starting to hit well, with no real place to go. Tyler O'Neill seems like a better trade chip

[pgisback]

Dang, Diaz was my favorite player last year. Was even thinking about supercollecting him. He's been pretty rough this year. This is a brutal loss. They need these wins.

[RW3FAN]

Loss?

[RW3FAN]

Ok, now it's a loss

[Yaboi07]

Servais should have been fired so long ago. Not diaz fault in the least that they lost today.

[jason122883]

Servais should have been fired so long ago. Not diaz fault in the least that they lost today.

I don't like using him yesterday in a non save situation. But, it is still solely on Diaz for the loss today. I like Diaz, but he has the same issue Felix had when he first came up. He is a mental midget. If something doesn't go his way. Doesn't get a call, or a call is missed against him. Or he gives up an early run, he kinda just falls apart.

Good news is he is still young, and has a lot of talent. He should be good, but this is very frustrating

[jason122883]

2, 3, 4 game series. Getting swept by the Phillies is unacceptable

I disagree. He should never be in the game yesterday like you said. He's weak mentally. He should only be in if it's a save situation. They did all that earlier this year to build his confidence back after his first melt down. Then Servais wastes it yesterday. So why would he have his confidence back today. It makes no sense for him to be in there. I wish I could go back and watch every game and see how many Servais has lost for them. It has to be between 5-7. Diaz never should have be in when they lost that 7 run lead in Anaheim either. Servais can't manage a team. Especially the bullpen. Never puts the game in motion with hit and run or bunting people over.

I'm definitely not a Servais supporter. In fact, I'd be ok with him gone. I don't think that is going to happen, as they are hanging around .500 with all the injuries. Kind of a good excuse on his behalf.

With that said, who is out there that we could make the manager? I just feel like a lot of the current managers in Baseball are the same caliber as him. Very few really good managers

[Devi8or]

Servais seriously out thinks himself so often. Gaviglio is doing pretty good and he pulls him at 81 pitches. That's not the first time he's done that and the bullpen automatically blows it. Seriously, let them do their jobs if they're doing good at it

There's been two ground balls in the last 3 games that were bad throws that if he was moving faster than a walking pace he could have beat out. We'll agree to disagree, I think it's embarrassing watching him job to first every groundball. They need to win ball games, not worry about getting hurt running, lol.

Pissed off, I posted on a Facebook game used page. One of the workers requested more and replied to me to come see him. So I ended up w one after all.

That is great you were able to get one. Watching Felix today was rough, especially the very first pitch for a home run. This isn't the Felix that we know and love.

Yeah, there were 11 people waiting for 8 balls. I was 9th and didn't get one.
Pissed off, I posted on a Facebook game used page. One of the workers requested more and replied to me to come see him. So I ended up w one after all.
I made the same comment to my GF, "Did you hear that? The sound of the end of Felix's career????"

I saw your FB post, glad you got one man!

[jason122883]

Man, I wish we could just sell off this group of underachievers. I know Dipoto will not go that route, but I would love to unload the older guys, and restart and retool around our younger guys. Then we wouldn't be surprised by the mediocre results, day in and day out

[pgisback]

The .500 curse strikes again

[Devi8or]

If any of you are going to this game, hook a brotha up

Wow, Khris Davis has the weakest arm I've seen in baseball

[JLChinn]

Welp. Cruz is back and lookin good

[pgisback]

Such a bummer watching Diaz struggle like this but he's becoming a liability out there. Has good stuff just missing pitches.

I don't know all these advanced statistics. But someone was saying he was rated our second worse reliever. I believe it

[seabass97166]

0-2 hanging slider with 2 outs is unacceptable.

This guy costs them so many games it's pathetic

[jason122883]

He reminds me of, I think it was Noesi. Great stuff, just couldn't consistently locate it

[pgisback]

For sure, I feel so much more comfortable with Pazos or Vincent in. Heck, what's funny was last year at this time it was Steve Cishek blowing all the games. Diaz was a stud there for a while when he took over. Now I feel more comfortable with Cishek closing. Crazy.

[quackhead]

nevermind..........

[jason122883]

Good bounce back game by Felix today

[crtsports]

Good overall win and a great way to close out the first half of the season. Looking forward to the upcoming Yankees, Red Sox and Mets homestand!

[pnwcollector]

Hip Hip Hooray. Quintana Traded which means the mariners don't have to face him this weekend!

[pgisback]

Let's go Ms!! Get that wild card. Gamel still hitting like usual. Dudes on point this year. Hope they keep him.

[jason122883]

I'd assume he's under team control for awhile

[pgisback]

Get some Canooooo!!!!!

[jason122883]

That was way closer than I initially thought

[pgisback]

That was way closer than I initially thought

Same here, thought it went off the railing at first

[RW3FAN]

Way to Go!!!
Former Yankee hits a 3 run dinger!!!

[pgisback]

Paxton getting his groove back after the dl. This team has the pieces to be a playoff team. Let's goooo!!

[pnwcollector]

Found 2 40th Anniversary Game balls at a thrift store for $7. Both have dirt and grass on them but have no clue what game they are from.

Yeah I'm very sure they are Game Used kind. Definitely not the bp balls.

[pgisback]

Almost game time!! Let's go King

[pgisback]

Not the best start. Bummer when you hit the wall and get thrown out at 2nd

[jason122883]

Cruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuz

[jason122883]

Haha. Swarzak had that look like "I tried everything to avoid that"

[pgisback]

Felix didn't have his best stuff but got out of some serious jams!! Let's finish!!

[pgisback]

Diaz scares me

[Devi8or]

Felix didn't have his best stuff but got out of some serious jams!! Let's finish!!

Yeah he was having trouble finding his spots it looked like, he had enough to keep us in it though. Not his best start but I'll take it with the much needed W

[pgisback]

Let's gooooooo!! Would be a huge dub!

[RW3FAN]

Should Zunino be doing better setting up pitches for our rookie pitcher??

[pgisback]

1 pitch 2 outs!! Yessir. Let's go Ms

[pgisback]

Keep it up Gamel! Get them hits

[pgisback]

Nelllllliiiiii!!!

[jason122883]

Nelllllliiiiii!!!

Was not even a great 3-0 pitch to swing at either

[jason122883]

That's the Diaz I like

[pgisback]

That's the Diaz I like

That's what I'm talking about!!! Dude has stuff! Great team wins last 3 days

[jason122883]

Segura single handedly saved us in the 9th

[pgisback]

What an amazing game!!!

[jason122883]

Seager!!

[pgisback]

Seager Bomb!!!! Get some!

[pgisback]

Dannnnnnny!! Get some!!

[jason122883]

Danny V with some insurance!

[jason122883]

Please be good Diaz tonight

[pgisback]

Please be good Diaz tonight

Pleasssse!!! Would be such a huge confidence boost

[pgisback]

Yea buddy!! Loving what I'm seeing

[jason122883]

Oh Diaz, you filthy little bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

[RW3FAN]

Segura now leading all MLB in batting average at .349

[jason122883]

Glad to see replay worked.

Bats need to get going

[pgisback]

Some early ball! Love it. Paxton dealing!

[pgisback]

Gamel!!!! Yessir. Segura and Gamel are hitting machines!!

[jason122883]

Gamel!!!! Yessir. Segura and Gamel are hitting machines!!

That they are. Gamel is just on the scene, so it makes sense, but I do not understand how Segura gets no hobby love

[pgisback]

Dang just looked. His stuff is ridiculously cheap. Might scoop some stuff up.

[jason122883]

That is REALLY close. Only thing in our favor is that he was initially called safe

[pgisback]

Super close. Crazy super man head first slide in to first and touches the back of the base, ha

[jason122883]

That was ball 4 Ben swung at. Houston can not get out of their way this inning.

Heredia should have went on that one

[jason122883]

That's where this offense can be super frustrating. Bases loaded, none out, middle of the order coming up. We came away with 1 run. We need to be able to cash in on those situations more often

[pgisback]

Gonna get some national attention this week! Judge coming to town!!

[pgisback]

Diaz getting his groove back! 5 saves 6 days. Keep it rolling!! Bring on the evil empire

[billbanning]

2 out of 3 from Houston in Houston? Sign me up for that every time!

[pgisback]

Almost game time!! Let's get a sweep. Yankees are struggling to see the ball.

[RW3FAN]

Almost game time!! Let's get a sweep. Yankees are struggling to see the ball.

"You may be seated"

[jason122883]

I would love a sweep. To be realistic, as we have our own struggles, I'd be good with taking 3 of 4. A split would be acceptable, but not preferred

[pgisback]

Good first batter, always a good sign when he's around the plate early!

[RW3FAN]

Good movement and placement.
Hey Judge, sit down.

[pgisback]

Get some Gamel!! He gets hits even when he doesn't think it's a hit!!

[Briss]

Gamel = Machine

[jason122883]

I am a bit tired of Andrew Moore and Gaviglio hasn't looked too hot lately. I understand the move to put Gallardo back in the rotation, but man he was great out of the pen

[pgisback]

Gosh this ump is not giving him that bottom corner

[jason122883]

Umps are running up the pitch count for Felix

[pgisback]

Can't believe Judge took those last two pitches. Nice work by Felix but damn he's gonna be out early with that count. Ump not giving him any love

[jason122883]

LOL Severino, that was like a foot outside

[pgisback]

Dissapointing!! Gotta be able to get a runner in on 3rd no outs.

[Ralphomatic146]

Lol? Why? He worked out of the inning.

[jason122883]

Lol? Why? He worked out of the inning.

LOL because he was walking off the mound on the 2-2 pitch to Zunino that was not close to a strike



Agreed on that inning being a disappointment. Mitch had a poor AB. Dyson should have tried putting the ball on the ground

[pgisback]

LOL Severino, that was like a foot outside

Yea that was funny. Wasn't even close. Dysons defense is impressive

[jason122883]

At least the Ump is consistent both ways

[pgisback]

Felix pitched a gem!! Mariners have to help him out

[pgisback]

This ump awful

[rman112]

This ump awful

First one to Gamel looked out, second looked even farther out. Third a strike for sure.

[pgisback]

First one to Gamel looked out, second looked even farther out. Third a strike for sure.

Third was definitely a strike, I'll give the ump that one, ha.

[pgisback]

Segura gets a pass after what he did to Houston, but that could be a very bad error.

[pgisback]

Ump is miserable. Same location as the two strikes he gave to Gamel, he calls balls for Zych.

[RW3FAN]

Felix pitched a gem!! Mariners have to help him out

Ah the good old days, Felix lights out, no run support. Let's win it in the 9th.

[jason122883]

Valencia has been much better lately, but man, he swings at some of the ugliest pitches

[jason122883]

That's the right call. It's an out

[pgisback]

Frustrating game

[RW3FAN]

Was hoping Hanniger Helper would get a hit.

[Briss]

Typical M's, great roadtrip...big time game at home against the Yankees only 1.5 games in front of you, and you drop a zero.

[rman112]

Plaid shirt guy.. gotta make a play!

[RW3FAN]

Typical M's, great roadtrip...big time game at home against the Yankees only 1.5 games in front of you, and you drop a zero.

Typical M's fan, gives up before the game is over.
