First place and playoffs here we come
Celebration time M's bros!
>>67147191
Howard Lincoln has been the owner of the M's since Nintendo bought them.
his decision making and leadership are responsible for many bad things, including Randy Johnson,A-Rod, and Griffey leaving as well as the M's 15 year playoff drought. every bad trade or hire was green lit by him.
>>67147454
To add on to that, he was never a baseball guy. He was given the post of CEO after he retired as CEO of Nintendo of America.
>it's a memeiner general
What the fug.
>>67147490
seriously, Lincoln should have never left his post at Nintendo. He did great things for the NoA.
if he was still in charge, as apposed to Reggie, Nintendo would be far more dominant.
>>67147490
>hiring video games to be your teams owner
Sounds cool on paper. In practice, as we've seen over the last decade and change, not as cool.
>>67146747
Its finally over Seattlebros. He's done!
>>67147454
>>67147490
Didn't Nintendo just announce the NX today?
Something's going on here...

Walgreen's? Whatever happened to Natinals? Or Nation-lels?
>>67149266
He needs to get back into rhythm still and he can't score every run to make up for shoddy pitching
>>67148432
Harvey's already exploded. Who do you think is next?
Whenever I watch Andrew Cashner pitch it just reminds me that every year faggraphs writers insist that this is the year that he will become ace and then I laugh because faggraph writers are retards who actually don't know shit other than how to look up stats.
>>67148810
This is actually good. I disagree heavily with Andrus though. There's at least 3 other SS who are magnitudes better.
>be pierats
>be "dangerous in teh playoffs"
>"this team will go a run"
>"they can get hot"
>get eliminated in one game
Reminder that if you're from SHITTBURGH you should harbor no hope for the future because your baseball team is shit.
Daily reminder the Pittsburgh Pirates currently have the Greatest Of All Time (GOAT) outfield. I can't even be modest about it. Consider it a blessing to witness such greatest as it's happening. Truly a special time to be a fan of baseball.
>>67149354
Speaking of Fangraphs, did DG die? haven't seen his shitposts in awhile.
>>67149500
He's laying low like Kershaw did after Stanton obliterated that pitch from him.
mets fan, but justified
Just remember that The Nationals haven't played a winning team yet this season, and the Phillies could be the first matchup that is
Daily reminder that the Pirates willingly placed their entire 2014 season in the hands of Edinson Volquez by starting him in the 2014 NL Wild Card game.
Why are there no good catchers in baseball right now? That position has become a fucking dumpster fire.
>>67149616
Reminder that Edison Volquez started game 1 of the 2010 NLDS for the Cincinnati Reds
>>67149595
>picking based Castillo
>People who overrated Kerry Wood's 20k game
he faced the lowly Astros, a team that only won 102 games
Daily reminder this happened, which ultimately led to MORE Pirates playoff wins than the Reds have had in 20 years.
>>67149660
Idk about you but when I was a kid playing baseball the last place I wanted to play was catcher. Fuck that shit.

Hardest position in the game that destroys your knees and makes it impossible to be healthy.
There's a reason the games greatest catchers give kids the following advice on being catchers:
"Don't be a catcher."
>>67149660
they are all being converted to 3rd and 1st basemen in the minors
94th for kershit
Catchers today get converted because their bat advanced much faster than their glove/arm/framing. Or they get hurt in the minors and convert for their potential longevity(Tommy Joseph)
Might as well make the All-Star team starters be the players that will be in the World Series
>>67150090

>>67150147
you can't choose where the outfielders are shown on the selection, otherwise there's no way Kris "Noodlearm" Davis would be anywhere but left field
>>67150186
Knuckleball. Even with low stats computer players can't lay off it for shit. Great strikeout pitch in RTTS.
>>67150186
Screwball
>>67150201
Also, Asche isnt even playing. It's been a cluster of Hunter/Lough/Goeddel

>>67150495
Don't use it as your primary pitch. Just use it as a strikeout pitch.
Did you remember to vote today, Anon?
It is generally accepted that the all time triples record (Sam Crawford's 309) is untouchable, right? Do you think it could hypothetically be broken if a guy who, under normal circumstances, would hit roughly 150 career triples spent his whole career in San Francisco and abused the shit out of triples ally?
>>67150514
Nah of course not, I like painting the courners and changing speeds to get batters out.
>>67150569
So you would call your pitcher a Rembrandt?

To everyone arguing about the sox, cubs, and chicago, relax. The White Sox have always been a team you root for because it's a blue collar city and the Cubs are trust fund babbys and tourists.
And to all calling chicago a shit city it's because of jealousy. Don't go anywhere near the projects and you'll be fine, just like everywhere else in the world. And no, the cell isn't in the projects. It starts about 30 streets east.

For years and years I thought that was one of the coolest parts about your team. Shame.
I never thought this day would come
this is like Christmas in April
So are the M's losing a touch of their meme status with Nintendo bailing out?
>>67151326
We'll never get back the lolcats mistake though
>>67151313
it's not a shame, because Nintendo let Randy and Griffey walk, because Nintendo hired Bavasi and Jackie Z, because Nintendo green lit terrible trades and Manager hires.

I might have not liked Nintendo owning the M's all that much but they kept baseball in Seattle and I thank them for that ;_;7
I will forever be appreciative of what Nintendo did in 1992 by stepping in to buy the team and preventing the move to Tampa Bay.
I look forward to seeing how the new group continues the early hot start to this season. This fan base is a sleeping giant and the playoffs, world series in Seattle would see this city going absolutely insane, more so than a Super Bowl because the games would actually take place in our city.. This is the 39th Season of the Seattle Mariners existence, it is time.
DAILY REMINDER THAT IT IS AN EVEN YEAR

Will Jake Arrieta throw another no hitter tonight?

But they are?
Is dowgrading your chink owners like winning the WS for shitattle fans?
>>67151519
I think he's talking about their energy. If you look at Seahawk fans in their stadium, they're a loud energetic bunch. Probably due to the fact that ever since they got realigned in the early 2000s, they've been high energy. Partly due to the seahawks being decent but if you look at the memeiners, they've been shit for what, 15 years now? Fans now have something to look forwards to instead of the usual depressing M's.

Not just smallball. Deadball.
>>67151831
There has to be more to it. For an example keeping their wrists tight when they swing the bat to get better extension.
>>67151841
They've been plenty supportive of a franchise/ownership of a team that has done exactly nothing for a long time while having some great names. Johnson, Griffey, A-rod, Ichiro and now Felix. And even after all that shit, they're still making a profit. You can only expect so much from your fans when you haven't done much.

It's not even just that, all of our starting pitching sucks ass, even Keuchel the guy who won the Cy Young last season. McHugh was decentish last year but wouldn't be able to hit a fucking house. McCullers could not come back any faster, and watch him randomly start to suck ass too.

As an AL fan, I've always thought the Pirates announcers were pretty fucking bad.
"Old McDonald has an arm, ieie you're out."
and then there was that time he went all staccato when Cueto gave up that homerun after he dropped the ball in the wild card game. Theyre just cringey.

How did the Phillies bullpen go from one of the worst in the league at the beginning of the season, to one of the best a month into it?
>>67156635
4 games in bmore now.
It doesn't get any easier after a series with the Rangers and Toronto. Still though, I won't peg them as real until they have an 82 in the W column or even dare we hope an X next to their name.

but I've been saying they're going to win the world series for weeks
they're built for the playoffs and are just good enough to make it in this shit AL
literally just play .500 from now on and 86-76 might be good enough
>>67157162
for all the hate Danks literally is a perfectly serviceable fifth starter, particularly bad start this season but for 2 games, he'll put up a 4.5 era like usual
and of course Sale is the best pitcher in the AL, Q is arguably the 2nd best pitcher in the AL inarguably at least top 5, Rodon and Latos are good. it's a very good rotation
