Best thing to come out of this game so far is that Vargas is healthy enough to play.

Top of the order due up in the 9th... do you believe?

I don’t know if Muñoz is good to go today. He’s pitched the last couple days.

Rather see Grichuk than Quero

Either we tie this thing up or I go mow the grass. C’mon Sox, let me be lazy.

Entering today, Colson was 1 for 18 with 12 K and 3 BB in his career at T-Mobile park. The one hit was a homer. I think he's a funky batter's eye victim.

A welcome to the bigs moment.

This team struggles when the don’t hit home runs!

Mune should try blocking the base, I hear you can do that with impunity

Randal!

GRICHUK DOES IT AGAIN!

Damn you Hicks

If only Jordan Hicks didn't crap the bed when he only had to get 1 out...

Damn it, Randal. You know we have to cut you why are you making this hard lmao

So would I!

Mariners turn to hold onto their butts.

Now we're back to the umps gifting them the game with the bullshit on the SB

They just don’t quit. It rules.

Gonna be out but a good challenge

Proved right. Grichuk just hit a homer as PH. Compare that to Quero.

I don’t think he was arguing anything you’re saying he was.

Sure he was. But the question I asked to someone else but Sacamano answered. And specifically asked then who gets put where if you take out Acuna and Vargas is out. He said Meidroth at SS Ant at 2nd . He never said he'd leave Colson at 3rd and I asked who plays LF then ?

So I asked so you weaken the defense at 3 positions just just so Acuna doesnt play. His answer was yes because the lineup is better.

Venable already tackled all those things and his solution was Colson at 3rd and Acuna at SS and everyone else plays where they normally play.

Game results . 0 errors and Acuna got a hit and scored from 2nd on a hit and never got any AB with runners on base. Turned a nice DP too.

TBF, Grichuk probably doesn't do that against a righty.

Well Grichuk is not nearly as likely to hit well against a RHP than against a LHP. To me it vindicates the decision not to use him in the previous inning.

I wouldn't let these things totally control my thinking, but Quero has >100 points of OPS on Grichuk vs RHP this season

These guys are getting some good swings off

s%*# offensive series for Colson.
