I love the Mariners but they don’t love me back. We’re working through it.

Agreed, that’s why I was so surprised in my dream haha. Realistically, I’m not touching Kirby and Gilbert. Hope to keep the rotation in tact but not sure you can field a competitive team while keeping them all together

Witt is unreal. If he was in LA or on the east coast, he would be the face of baseball

This shocked me when I was watching the live broadcast. After how the M’s treated Scott, this felt like a big mention

That swing :’)

More than anything, I thought he was the coolest player. I modeled my swing after his on the JV high school baseball field. I called myself the “Death to Flying Things” after catching a routine popup. Ultimately, he’s just a piece of Mariners legacy, but watching his old highlights is SPECIAL to me.

The only played 59 games, but was on pace for 40+ HRs, 96 RBI, nearly .300, OPS of .974 and OPS+ of 167. I was so confident he was going to be a beast in 2016 - only for him to be slightly above average and continue to struggle to stay on the field.

After 2009, in 6 more seasons with the M’s, he only played in 100 games once. His injuries and inability to stay on the field was the eventual downfall. After taking the year off in 2014 due to injury and illness, he came back in 2015 as a corner OF / DH… and put up some NUMBERS

I don’t think he’s going to make it. I’d say there’s a 18% chance he makes it

Hope the M’s look at bringing him back. Could use more corner infield depth these days

Gotta get that email verified first

Agree - also feels like it depends on what Blowers does. If he retires, we gotta go outside the org and bring in some new voices to go with Goldy and Rizz
