14-23

We have scored 3 runs in the past 4 games. Sometimes I'm glad I barely get to watch this team play.

Inspired by JI:

Jeff will write a real recap and throw up a chart when he gets back, and I can't be assed writing about a game I didn't see. Judging from the number of comments in the game thread, nobody else bothered with it either.

Anyone know who the #1 overall pick in 2009 is likely to be?

This past two weeks have been a [COATHANGER]
The only games we've won in that time have been right before exams for me

So I haven’t even been able to sit down and watch the highlights without stressing.

If I may:

I just had a conversation the other day

about how worthless cursive is after fourth grade. But in this context, it’s just beautiful.

I was out all day...

But judging by the comments alone, that (those) was (were) probably the saddest game thread(s) of all time.

Yeah, I felt pretty pathetic.

But it’s not like I had anything better to do. I gotta’ work tomorrow.

I wore a Mariners hat to my softball game tonight.

I was the only person being heckled while I was hitting.

I was hoping they would get shutout again. Oh well.
#1 pick in 2009 is gonna be Steven Strasburg

He’s a sophomore pitcher at San Diego State… 84.1 IP, 48 H, 11 BB, 125 K.

Had 23 K in one game this season.

Isn't there a chance he'll be

picked this year.

Supposed to be a "?" at the end.
doesn't need italics
Holy crap this kid looks absurd

23 K game

I can't even do that on playstation

not with one pitcher anyway

At 1:18 I'm pretty sure the batter swings after the ball's hit the glove

That fastball apparently touches 99.

Sick

At 1:18 I’m pretty sure the batter swings after the ball’s hit the glove

That would have impressed me a few days ago, after watching our offense the last four days; not so much.

That kid's using cheat codes.
sweet baby Jesus

he will never be a Mariner :(

or he will and he will blow out his arm

Don't say that don't say that don't say that
I'm setting my standards low

We’ll probably waste our 2009 1st pick in the draft on P Matt Duryea, Lewis and Clark State College

this after they fire Bavasi, McLaren, and Fontaine

and replace them with Jimy Williams, Miguel Cairo, and….Pat Borders ? respectively

yes Jimy Williams will be the GM
I prefer more realistic pessimism
I don't

this way I’m almost guaranteed to be satisfied with the outocme

Please tell me this guy

is mild mannered, white, and from a Seattle suburb .

no but Matt Duryea is
This line of thinking will result in me killing someone someday
at least they stopped thinking this was in the Tim Lincecum draft
I meant the 'we're not going to draft him' line of thinking
and I meant a coherent thought with the word "time" in it
Wlad

OPS: .786
RBI: 7
HR: 3

Highest on the team since April 27 (Wlad’s first start was on April 30th). Team average OPS is around .600 in this sucky stretch.

And showing some opposite field power too!

Maybe Safeco won’t kill him.

This is embarassing:
