if it makes sense there, what a sweet artisanal play. It's one J.B. Wendelken would construct for you
But it usually just doesn't
Dodger Fan

30-grade hair on the pitcher
Phil White
1:42
J.B. Wendelken, artisan and amateur chess champion of the village.
Jake Mailhot
1:42
J.B. Wendelken only plays timed chess.
Phil White
1:43
Wilmer, mash lefties please
Jake Mailhot
1:44
Wilmer did not mash lefties
Ben Clemens
1:44
We jinxed him with all the talk about it earlier
Longoria didn't even budge
Kevin Goldstein
1:44
A run on a wild pitch here would be oh so very Giants/Mariners
Jake Mailhot
1:45
Fantastic catch by Mitch Haniger to get out of the inning
Kevin Goldstein
1:45
I gave up on this one in the fifth. Fun game now.
Ben Clemens
1:46
Oh right, Mitch Haniger is a plus defender
I haven't seen him play in so long
Jake Mailhot
1:47
He was so fun to watch in 2018

If there was one position you could upgrade on this Mariner roster, outside of pitching, what position would that be?
Jake Mailhot
1:47
Second base
1:48
Shed Long doesn't look like the answer and Dylan Moore would be best used as a super utility player
Dodger Fan
1:49
What about catcher?
Jake Mailhot
1:49
Torrens is fine and Cal Raleigh is on his way up
Arthur
1:50
Bunt makes sense here?
Kevin Goldstein
1:50
I'm a big Cal Raleigh fan.
Ben Clemens
1:50
Here is a troll-ish article I wrote about it
The title should tell you how much I was trolling
Phil White
1:51
Trammel putting up some good at-bats this game
Jake Mailhot
1:51
His eye at the plate has always been a skill. The power was new this spring and it'll be interesting to see if he can carry it over in April.
Ben Clemens
1:51
It took me a second to realize that Cal Raleigh wasn't a UC school I'd never heard of
DFABES
1:52
what if the player in question bunts successfully at a high rate for his career? does that move the needle?
Kevin Goldstein
1:52
Florida State. Realy liked him in the draft and he's improved defensively.
Ben Clemens
1:52
For me it would
This woo-ing woman is the WORST btw
Kevin Goldstein
1:53
She hasn't been able to go to a M's game in over a year! Cut her some slack.
Phil White
1:54
When Kelenic comes up, who loses their OF job?
Jake Mailhot
1:54
Depends on how Trammell fairs this month.
Ben Clemens
1:54
Here's a good reason not to auto-walk the first batter, btw
Ian
1:55
The worst. I just got the “can you please turn it down” from upstairs and it was all the woo-er. She really carries.
Kevin Goldstein
1:55
No ability to land the slider, but year, keep calling for sliders.
Jake Mailhot
1:55
Happy baseball!
Kevin Goldstein
1:55
Wow!
