Mariner Monday

It's Mariner Monday again, but unfortunately I have don't have much good news. The Mariners got into an AWFUL slump and lost 8 games in a row. I watched a couple innings of the game on Friday, and I had to turn it off because it was so painful. Now I KNOW that Felix is a good pitcher, but he sucked ASS on Friday. He gave up 3 homeruns in one inning. And 2 of them were back to back pitches! Plus walking multiple batters. We were behind 8-0 in the fourth. It was so bad. It might have been a little better if the Mariner's could freaking pick up their bats. But none of them hit unless they're all hitting. Excluding Ichiro and Gutierrez.

They did however win the game yesterday against Los Angeles, thank God. They're now going into the Baltimore series and we swept Baltimore last time so let's hope they get their winning streak back.

In the game on Saturday they left 12 men on base (really guys?). But apparently were improving anyways, taking the game into 10 innings.

Batting averages are dropping to horrific levels. Figgins is batting .192, Kotchman is batting .194, Lopez is at .215 and Rob Johnson is at .130. Our pitchers are the only things keeping us alive at this point. Despite Felix's awful game, he's still a great pitcher, along with Doug Fister and Cliff Lee. I'm hoping the Mariners are working on their bats because if we can actually score some runs, we could be pretty damn good.
