Thank you, I try not to be a Debbie downer but this lineup is just hard to watch. I really hope some trades will happen.

Until the cards get a formidable lineup that's probably what I'll do.
It's still a formidable lineup. Not giving up on them this early no matter how boring it is to watch.

You should have canceled your cable after the Super Bowl.
Burnnnnn.

Ha. Try being a Mariners fan. Their season IS over. It never got started. They have been mailing it in for years, and the fan base knows it. They just fire the manager and GM every so often to make it look like they are trying.

Since 1996, this has probably been the worst run the franchise has seen since the early 1900s.

What kind of trades are you thinking? Are we buying or selling? I'm just trying to figure out what man crush jersey to avoid dropping cash on, you know, if there's a big trade you think I should be contemplating the possibility of reading about. I watch out of the corner of my eye, to avoid any direct vision, kind of like a pinhole for an eclipse. Eclipses are cool. So's a camera obscura. Like a pinhole camera like they had back in the day. The Pujols days.

glad you're here. hope you stick around. I like your view point.

I think they should of traded for Tulo in the offseason as long as wacha wasn't involved but I guess hindsight is 20/20. Who would of guessed peralta would be trash and that yadier Molina would lead the team in slugging percentage in a lineup featuring guys like Craig and Holliday. The defense was supposed to improve this year but apparently jon jay took CF field back because bourjos isnt hitting plus not trading matt Adams leaves Craig in RF which is an obvious downgrade from Beltran. Pretty much everything the FO did this offseason blew up in their face and I don't see it changing unless some moves are made. This team has no star. Yadi shouldn't be leading mostly every offensive category. He's a great hitter and all but his lack of power means he's not in position to carry an offense.

So I say either trade the young guys for some star potential or trade Holliday or Craig(if anybody would take him) or Adams(move Craig back to first in hopes he will get out of his slump)and let the young OF's in AAA replace the vacant spots.

Well, not sure the team's going to stay this bad offensively especially peralta. The defensive problems are largely little league stuff that should be fixed. Hopefully soon. Craig has tons of teade value....for a reason.
