Hope this has been a little bullpen hiccup last couple days. It's not winning pitching for the playoffs

Tits up this game is.
One run game and you bring in Ferguson, Ort, and King
Joe's managing like it's a done deal already

Saved all the leverage arms in a game the offense never cared to show up to anyway, silver lining.
Back to back games in which we waste excellent starting pitching, not that the final score would not indicate that.
15 RA in the seventh inning onward since Friday. Yeesh
Would have been nice if we forced the Meremen to have used their leverage arms tonight. Pretty even goin' into tomorrow IMO.Beau Holder said:

13 hits for Seattle tonight
We've got 2 games to win 1.
I don't like our chances with this lineup.Wabs said:

I'm gonna blame for that the guys that routinely make outs in the first two pitches regardless of game situation and utterly fail to get a ball in the air when a runner is on third.
We got Kikuchi on Wednesday. Until proven otherwise I'm going to count on that streak.
Pathetic approach tonight.
Mariners threw 122 pitches total for the win
This is some Dusty shtt.
Go hard for the win early in this series, wrap up the division, and then see if Cleveland falters to make the final series worth it.
Otherwise do what you can to win the division asap and then rest up heading into the WC round.

have the Guardians clinched the 2-seed yet?
tonight should have helped
tonight should have helped
Better win tomorrow or buttholes really pucker up
Dang Bryce Miller was dealing. Love to see the guy pitching well. Hate that it had to be against us tonight…
Yordan Alvarez has a right knee sprain. He will not be available this series.

ACL/MCL/PCL tear confirmed
Amputation scheduled for Friday
Then Yordan's done, he'd be available otherwise
Hopefully our top 4 can do better than 2 for 15 tomorrow without Yordan.
I know how we are with this team and injuries, but until we hear otherwise I'm just going to take it to mean that he's hurting bad enough to need more than a day off, they'll hope to clinch, and then maybe you just rest him til the playoffs.
Don't like the sound of that.

This is the bottom line. With a back third-to-half of the order that is so generally bad and makes outs as quickly as they do, the big bats can't no show like they always do in unison.
Guess I'll have to go to bring us the win tomorrow.
7nine
Going with Ferguson in the 7th was waiving the white flag, in a one run game

Hope so
Still don't know how you bail on a one run game by bringing in the C team from the bullpen after your starter gives up 1 over 6
Logan Gilbert vs Framber Valdez tomorrow night. That's the good stuff https://t.co/3KXyzIZFQK

Not saying I agree with it, but we need exactly 1 win in this series. So there is a solid argument for saving your entire pen for either tomorrow or Wednesday, when hopefully you are using them with the lead.
I'm not sure I would have thrown a good arm either when the bats weren't doing a darn thing anyway
The loss yesterday pisses me off more, that was a win you had in hand and then that would've set you up to need one win out of your remaining six games, the last 3 against a presumably disinterested Cleveland club.

I agree with this. Mariners have to play desperately, which would've meant Munoz in a close game while we let our guys rest after the wild one Sunday. Offense basically didn't allow for any game script by letting Miller go seven and not touching up Taylor.
the Guardians can clinch the 2-seed with a win vs. the Reds tomorrow
