Trumbo to the mariners
What a worthless move. CBS agrees with me.

Mark Trumbo trade likely to be of little help to Mariners - CBSSports.com

Funny that even with the addition of Cruz, our offense is actually WORSE than last year. How is that even possible??? Cano is hitting a paltry .250, Ackley, Zunino, and JR are hitting under .200, and everyone else is just too damned streaky. Sure, we are 4th in the MLB in HR's, but as we can all see, more HR's doesnt = more wins. The pitching has finally settled down for the most part (bullpen is still hella iffy), this team will finish under .500 this year. What a waste.

They got Smith in there to close, FINALLY. People have been calling for him since last year. Dude is a stud. Rodney is done.

Cano is fucking up. And we have 8 more years to look forward to!

OUr talent just isnt there, combined with a manager that is full of shit and cant manage a lineup or a bullpen properly, and upper management who only give a shit about soccer moms and bobble head nights...Jack Z is a poser. This organization needs to clean HOUSE. There is no future with them as it is...just crap baseball. Poor Felix.

We can still win the division this year. The team isnt complete crap. Houston is finally coming to the realization that they are the Astros. And no one else is really stepping it up in the AL WEST. It's looking like if we can score 4+ runs a game and have a stable bullpen we'll finally start getting some wins.

And it was nice to see them score 9 runs today!

Go M's!

More importantly than the 9 runs, IMHO (which is crazy to say at this point), is Walker's performance again. Dont like the 2BB's, but the 8K's and 6 innings is a nice line for him. His last 3 starts have been very good ones, only allowing 7 total runs over those 3 starts.
