And with not a bang, but a whimper, the Mariners' minor league season has come to a close.
AA PLAYOFFS: NO WITTY CAPTION FOR YOU
Game 3: Carolina 4, West Tenn 2
Carolina wins series 3-0
Luis Muñoz: 6 IP, 8 H, 4 ER (HR), 3 walks, 6 K, 2 wild pitches, hit batter
Jason Kershner: no outs recorded, 1 H
Roman Martinez: 2 IP, 2 K
Greg Halman: 3-5, R, K
Jamie McOwen!: 1-4, double, 2 K
rest of DIAMOND JAXX lineup: 4-26, 4 walks, 6 K
You'll notice a dearth a coverage for this series. As previously stated, the current rendition DIAMOND JAXX were a shell of the team that captured the 1st Half title in the North Division due to callups, injuries and regression... so against a more currently complete Carolina team, this was likely a formality. And it was.
It's been fun, guys. Until next year....
Disregard above; I suck gigantic cock

Good stuff!

Gomez
You’re supa fly.
Humongo - September 8, 2008
Thanks so much for all this work, Gomez.
It’s been a joy to read.
Aaron Campeau - September 8, 2008
Thanks and a congrats
Great job, and I hope you’re back next year, Gomez.
And congratulations to the Spokane Indians for winning the Northwest League last night. Sort of. Seemed more like the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes beat themselves (esp. blowing an 8-run lead in the penultimate game. Oh, that single-A fielding!). Spokane seems to have a few live arms this year, and given the pitching needs of the parent club, we might well have seen some future Texas Rangers playing against our Frogs this year.

This was Spokane's year
Salem-Keizer wasn’t the unstoppable beast they were last season, and mainly won their division by default. Spokane, however, was clearly the best team in the NWL. Congratulations to them.

Thanks for putting in all the effort this year Gomez.
Much appreciated.

Not so fast, Gomez
The Arizona Fall League is starting up, and then there will be several winter leagues featuring M’s prospects.
Keep up the good work.

I spaced those last year
mainly because they’re instructional leagues and performances down there often carry little to no meaning since guys are often trying different approaches or learning new things.

We need daily Joe Woerman updates
even on the days he is not pitching.

Today Joe Woerman had a turkey sandwich
and helped his fellow aliens kidnap an unsuspecting couple
Gomez - September 8, 2008
What do they plan to do with them?
seattlebruin - September 8, 2008
Flip them to Atlanta for Brent Lillibridge
Duh.
Gomez - September 8, 2008
I can't wait for tomorrow
Will he finish the turkey, or will he open the package of ham and risk the turkey going bad in the meantime? Will he go see Bangkok Dangerous, or Tropic Thunder again? Will he use Fandango or just risk the sell out? Will he sell the microfiche to the German businessman for the duffle bag of Euros, or to the beautiful Nepalese translator for the suitcase of gold bars?

> LOOK
You are in Surprise, AZ, standing on a baseball mound. Standing approximately 60 feet away are an umpire and a baseball player holding a bat. Crouched in front of the umpire is a catcher, holding his mitt towards you.
> INVENTORY
You are currently holding a BASEBALL.
> THROW STRIKES.
I’m sorry. You’re unable to do this.
Gomez - September 8, 2008
I'm laughing
because I’d play it.
And that’s most likely a very sad thing.
