Brown will significantly help the bullpen if used correctly. He’s good enough to pitch multiple innings in leverage situations. I hope his role isn’t limited to mop up or inning eater in a hopeless game.

Agree completely. Javier has to be your game 4 starter. Brown should be the guy that goes in to a right game around the 4th or 5th inning if the starter isn’t super sharp and goes 9-18 batter depending upon effectiveness and game situation.

we miss uncle mike. need to bat bregs 2nd or finally move yordan up to 2. 

He’s so good he can place it in a perfect spot to plate 3 but still not disrupt this solo homer streak

I think I’m now OK with Maldy being the starting catcher in the playoffs. Vasquez is a better offensive player but if he’s going to be a huge vagina and never get an extra base hit for the rest of his life I’m ok with Maldy hitting 9th and trying to run into one in the first couple AB’s. You have to PH 3rd AB (and maybe even 2nd) if the situation is important and contact matters. 
he went from historically God Awful in April and May to merely run of the mill bad now. That’s a big improvement. Wasn’t sure he had it in him since he’s old and a catcher.

Vazquez has a career .656 road OPS, so he kind of is shitty/slappy away from Fenway

My nomination for bench coach next year. Seriously Framber is so under-rated. Nothing flashy or over powering. Just goes out and gives ya 6 to 7 innings Screenshot_20220918-111043_Video Player.jpg

Halos complete the weekend sweep of Seattle. We should clinch in no more than 48 hours. Yet another AL West banner will be going up the flagpole at MMP on Opening Day 2023. I gotta say, I don't mind eschewing last year's drama of getting stuck on a magic number of 5 for a week straight and not clinching until game 159.

Man, this was a boring regular season (in a good way).  We took control of first for good after game 37 (May 17). 15 games later, we led by 7.5 (June 3), and have never had a smaller cushion since. 

With today's win, we've already topped last year's win total, and still have 14 to play. Next 2 weeks are just mop-up duty. Get whoever needs rest some off days, get the bench guys some reps, and get ready to fuck-stomp whoever we face in the ALDS.

We should have just pretended we clinched yesterday and did the celebration then. Or skip it altogether for the division and do it when we wrap up the AL as a whole.

Mariners will finish around the 2nd inning of our game tomorrow

will be interesting to see the lineup

I defy you to tell me based upon the lineup anything. How would one even be able to tell?
