Kills me to see Wells on the bench  
HBart : 2:26 pm : link
He's been as valuable as Judge or Soto for the last month.

I agree, but no catcher is in the lineup every game, especially day game after night game. At least outside of him, we are starting to settle in on a lineup.

Personally, I also prefer Dominguez in CF, but since Judge has been there all season, I guess they feel it's better not to move him now.

Well at least we won’t see him on the bench when playoffs are here, his bat is too way too valuable

Yes, good point. But the way he's been swinging, and against a righty, seems an apt time to bend the guideline. Has Trevino even had a hit this month?
Rizzo...  
DC Gmen Fan : 4:24 pm : link
Feels like the team has really clicked since he's returned. Can't overstate how valuable his presence is. He's been really swinging well lately too.
Dominguez drops a fly ball.

At this point I’d expect Verdugo in LF for the postseason.
2 games in a row Dominguez fielding mistake  
Today’s “hangover” game figured to be ugly.  
bceagle05 : 4:30 pm : link
.
Now Dominguez laces a double into the gap.  
bceagle05 : 4:39 pm : link
Rookies.
Why on earth would you wave him home down 3 runs?  
Is third base coach that difficult a job?

Love him but he’s weird. Rookie.
Even with two outs  
shyster : 4:44 pm : link
that was a bad send that surprised me.

Line drive with the RF playing in for Volpe. No chance unless Mariners screw it up.
Jazz!

Two run bomb from the cleanup spot.

I felt better when Arozarena almost dropped one in LF too - must be a tough sun.
Why would you have Trevino  
section125 : 5:24 pm : link
bunt for two pitches that were balls and then on 2-0 count swing away. Effing stupid.
Volpe & Gleyber with back to back UGGGLEEEE at bats

I was just gonna say I wish he committed to bunting in that AB.
1st and 2nd, nobody  
section125 : 5:26 pm : link
out and one ball (pop up) put in play. No way I let Trevino swing away there. Just bunt the runners over.
I hate Trevino calling the game,  
section125 : 5:30 pm : link
Schmidt gets up 0-2 and Trevino with all these BBs to get to 3-2. Bad, bad pitch selection....

Ha and now Flats backing me up. But Trevino does this all the time. Far too many wasted pitches.
Stanton has just been  
section125 : 5:47 pm : link
awful lately.
Since the Chisolm HR, Gilbert is throwing all off speed stuff. FB, if thrown, is out of the zone.
Stanton...  
How many more years of this are left?
Stanton…  
bceagle05 : 5:49 pm : link
Never seen a player look so good when hot and so lost when cold. I wouldn’t trust him to make contact in a slow pitch softball game right now.

Too many - 2028?
And Trevino does it  
section125 : 5:57 pm : link
again. Schmidt up 0-2 and curve balls him to 3-2 - thankfully a pop up out. Schmidt is reaching 95 mph. Throw it.

And it was Jeff Nelson, not John Flaherty complaining about too many wasted pitches.
Wells has had some rest  
HBart : 6:06 pm : link
Would have pinch hit for Trevino.
Wow what a catch from Soto.  
bceagle05 : 6:29 pm : link
Thank God he’s staying in the game after a crash into the wall.

Bruised knee cap there. That could make you want to puke.

Time to put ice on that thing before it swells.
Boone trying to force  
section125 : 6:45 pm : link
Holmes on us. Thinks he is going to pitch his way out of the shit he has been dealing.
Volpe saves it  
shyster : 6:50 pm : link
Holmes did get umped on the walk.

But that was a sharply hit ball off the sinker, ticketed for center and an RBI, that Volpe snagged.
RE: Volpe saves it  
shyster : 6:51 pm : link
correction, not an RBI since Seattle runner ran himself into the out at 3d. But two on and inning continuing.
SEA closer is a flamethrower  
Game over
Welp, kinda mailed this one in.  
bceagle05 : 6:54 pm : link
On to Oakland.

Not really. Good pitching. Need people to catch routine fly balls. And need people to get hits with RISP.
Great Series Win.  
This team has won a ton of series this season, but they rarely get the sweep. I get that sweeps are difficult (even against bad teams), but I do with this team could sweep a team once in awhile. Oh well, got the series win and that's what's important.
*but I do WISH this team, not "with"..
