Next WNBA Commissioner? "Names suggested were Swim Cash, Lisa Leslie, Rasheeda Clark, Mellody Hobson, Nneka Ogwumike, and Bethany Donaphin. All of whom have a background in “relationship building” in some way, shape, or form. As of now, Cathy Englebert’s position remains intact." yahoo sports

Over thinking... Have to challenge Torres and make him beat you. Fortunate. Greene too anxious and got himself out.

two ex Padres coming here Brash and Munoz, dumb dumb trade/s Brash for forgettable Taylor Williams PADRES-MARINERS TRADE Padres get: C Austin Nola, RHP Dan Altavilla, RHP Austin Adams Mariners get: INF Ty France, OF Taylor Trammell, RHP Andres Muñoz, C Luis Torrens

Man it's like 1995-2001 Kingdome loud Great game. Bring in Munoz now or the 9th?

Also surprising never more than 107 pitches and usually below 100. Max effort guy. Burned Canzone too. Wow wow wow.

What's Skubal's deal after next season??? $500-650 million??? 1. Gerrit Cole, $324 million In December of 2019, Gerrit Cole signed with the New York Yankees for nine years, and $324 million. Since signing the deal, he has gone 51-23 with a 3.08 ERA, and 816 strikeouts. 2. Stephen Strasburg, $245 million After the 2019 World Series, the Washington Nationals signed Strasburg to a seven-year contract, worth $245 million. Since signing the deal, the former No. 1 overall pick has appeared in just eight games, going 1-4. 3. David Price, $217 million Yamamoto $300 million. Part of Ohtani's deal going to the pitching side, obviously.

This is why Ray was insistently arguing the last two months about the true value of a unicorn like Skubal Crochet Skenes here. Just doesn't lose four times in one season against the same team...even on the road in the most hostile environment you can get in baseball.

Rooting for Dodgers to sweep the Cubs and then sacrificial AL team and the national media to then lose their minds... They have to come up with a more workable model short of salary caps and spending floors. Will believe it's actually halfway fair when Murakami signs anywhere other than LAD.

"Fantasy" is doing what about half of baseball (18 teams?) does every single offseason...including the White Sox through the Benintendi deal.

No way I'm watching any Tigers Blue Jays games... f that.

All erased with one swing...

Hope Baez postseason success doesn't also apply to Cubs tmrw.

Great game so far...except for those who enjoy run scoring.

White Sox middle infielders need to study that tag...absorbing ball going right into runner instead of reaching out jabbing and trying to pull backwards

60 pitches already...

Crazy only catcher A.Kirk has lower sprint speed in the entire majors. Reminiscent of Burger having higher sprint speeds than Moncada.

Naylor is hyped...lol. Mariners 64% chance to win not accounting for home field

If Seattle can beat Skubal four times in one year....surely that's never happened to a Cy Young winner? Has to be annoying that a Seattle University product is doing so well for another organization. Scouting. Like Trout getting away from the Mets Yankees Phillies. Or Pujols from a KC JC to St.Louis.

please win, Mariners...!!!! otherwise, JR is going to simply argue that a max $140-150 million payroll is good enough to win consistently in the AL Central...$115-130 million good enough to beat CLE KC MINN and finish in 2nd 3rd 4th

R.Suarez, Giolito, Kelly, Bassitt, Quintana, Eflin and Mahle are all defined as mid tier. Wipe out the three with obvious White Sox connections. LHPers Ty.Anderson (LAA)/A.Heaney/Corbin/Cortes need one veteran to work with Smith and Schultz balance out rotation, Perez return 15-20% for lower guaranteed salary Dustin May just on rebound/flip potential

Crazy how poorly that DET has been hitting, but still on the precipice of the ALCS...and it's not all on the back of Skubal either.

Somewhere there's a middle ground between $500-600 million and 1/$20-25.

Be wary of buying too high on Trent Grisham...unless you somehow believe that offense can continue on another team and not just an outlier of a season like Santander in 2024.
