Remember that one game where the Mariners had more points than the other team at the end? Good times.

Nelson Cruz has been an absolute BEAST this series.

Verlander hasn't done too well this series, I wonder if he'll pitch the next game. My baseball knowledge is limited but I doubt the Tigers will lose the next game; this will go back to Texas 3-2

Other than the Yanks and Phils, every team I've rooted for has lost. At this point I just hope the Cards lose so we don't have to listen to Buck and McCarver fellate them in the WS.

How did you feel about the Pineda-Montero deal? I understand that the M's need offense, but it seemed like a lateral move to me. Why not trade Felix if the Yankees were willing to offer even more for him? The AL West is out of reach for a little while for the M's. Or you could use the money saved in such a deal to sign Fielder.

The best reasoning I've heard is that the M's just like their other pitching prospects even more than Pineda. Either way, it's definitely an interesting trade that could work out well for both teams.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #79 on:** January 18, 2012, 08:47:26 PM »

I'd trade Pineda over Felix any day. The Yanks would need to give us tons of talent for Felix, and besides, I'd rather not trade Felix. Period.

I was sad to see Pineda go, but our farm system is stocked with talented pitchers and very little in the way of ready/proven hitters. We're in serious need of bats.

I don't think money is an issue in signing Fielder. I think Seattle's location and ballpark are reasons enough to make Fielder hesitant about coming here.

Yeah, that last point always comes up. I still say the Mets didn't need to bring in the fences.

And it seems the M's front office is as emotionally attached to Felix as all of the fans. I'd say that's a business decision over baseball decision at this point. If the M's traded Felix, no one would fucking go. I hope for your sake he re-signs with the M's in three years.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #81 on:** January 18, 2012, 09:13:46 PM »

Actually, no one goes because of Felix as it is. A buddy and I try to attend as many of his home starts as possible and attendance on Felix Days is really minimal unless it's on a weekend.

well at least that works out for you

How much is it for a decent ticket?

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #83 on:** January 18, 2012, 09:16:17 PM »

You can get center field bleacher seats for $7. I typically get those. There isn't a bad seat at Safeco.

Damn, that's cheap. I remember for the opening year of Citi Field I bought a small ticket pack with a couple of friends in the VERY LAST ROW in the upper deck and they were $15 per game.
