Mitch has turned into a damn good ball player. Excellent defensive and offensive 1st baseman. Very impressed with him this season.

Hannah Davis is really nice to look at

I've always liked Mitch. It's always about whether or not he's healthy. He'll get things rolling and then get hurt. Once he gets back he struggles to get back in a good groove.

Mitch is a great underdog story. Came up behind Davis, then Smoak. Worked his tail off and now playing at an all star level, batting clean up.

Passed ball that creates a run.... 2 nights in a row. Won't say anything else.

Elvis is so bad at the plate. What the hell has happened to him in the last few years?

I've always been a Moreland fan. I wonder if not having the fear of Wash benching him the moment he struggles has helped him this year too.

This Uverse commercial is dumb as hell.

This game feels like we should be up by at least 5 runs.

Nice play by Elvis

My 7 years old saw her for the first time, where she is laying in the water.

He was walking by and said, "Woah... *pause and stare* That's not right." Then he just stood there frozen. Looked at me, and then walked off.

Sonic slam inning. Whose it gonna be?

Kids are awesome

Fielder's due

Good lord this umpire has expanded the zone for Venditte. That first pitch to Choo very well may have been over the inside corner, but you rarely see a pitcher get that called strike when they miss there spot that badly.

That 2nd called strike was way low. Ump got a date?

Perception always puzzled me about statements like that. Everyone dogged Davis and were ready to dump him.

Moreland: 7/6/85, Signed 8/4/07, Debut 7/29/10
Davis: 3/17/86, Signed 6/9/06, Debut 6/26/08
Smoak: 12/5/86, Signed 8/15/08, Debut 4/23/10

So, your statement implies Moreland was drafted after Davis and Smoak and that he was younger than them, and came up in their shadow.

The truth is... yes, Davis was signed a year before Moreland, but Moreland is 8+ months older than Davis.

Davis made his debut 2 years before Moreland.

Smoak was 9 months younger than Davis, signed 2 years after Davis, made his debut almost 2 years later, yet everyone thought Davis was a bust by the time he had spent 2 years with the Rangers and Smoak was just getting called up.

17 months separate the 3.

Where in that post do I say anything about age or when they were drafted? I thought it was clear I was talking about the depth chart.

Gallardo is dealin!

Great inning by Gallardo

It was clear, some people just think they are hardasses.

I would tap the brakes with mitch, but I am pysched he is doing well again. He has, however, started hot and then cooled off before.

True, but like Adam said it may have more to do with him staying healthy. One things for certain, he's been a key cog in this hot streak. Hope he can keep it up.

Same

"Solar powered gnome".....

Only in California

Great outing for Gallardo. Seven innings, 1 earned and 10 k's.

Something wrong with Kela?

Some excellent defense there

I was wondering the same last night when I had to watch Detweiler struggled t get outs.

Errors and that stranded runner on 3rd with 1 out last inning may come back to bite us in the arse tonight.

No reason for Choo to make that throw. He can't make that play at third. Would have been much better to get it back to the infield and keep the tying run at first with one out.
