  6. This offense is fucked. At this point, I hope we flounder and miss the playoffs. Need some change somehow.

  10. None of the nine batters in our lineup could bring in the Manfred man in extras. Think about how pathetic that is.

  16. This team is running on fumes. Pitching is hobbling, at bats are desperate, and wins feel more like luck than earned. 

    The fact we aren’t irrelevant at the moment is down to the M’s remembering they’re the Mariners. 

  18. Haven’t seen a performance this tragically flaccid since I drank 12 Miller High Lifes and then tried to impregnate my wife.

  20. Ever go fishing and have one on the line, and something happens and it just stops fighting? You kinda depressingly reel it in, find that it’s just a little dink who’s pretty much dead already, and you throw him back and watch him flop on his side?

    Familiar feeling

  21. I didn’t get to watch today’s game because I was busy watching paint dry. Did I miss anything?

  23. ![gif](giphy|Jjx3zpQ2AwqCMDuzkp|downsized)

    This offense is just so hard to watch since the ASB..😞

  24. LMJ is so toast but if you can’t get a runner in from third with one out three times in a one-run game, that’s on the offense

  26. I love LMJ. But this was not the one to trot out in extra innings. Looked cooked and scared. I still believe in him as a starter somewhat but sheesh walked a damn man in extra innings.

  27. I’m out. Daughters birthday this weekend and then I’m out of the country for 3 weeks on business. Not going to spoil my weekend or my trip worrying about this anymore. Maybe we’ll be in the playoffs when I get back on the 28th, maybe we won’t.

  28. Man. The worst part of this is clearly nobody is trying to change anything. If they are, it’s not noticeable at all and it’s not working.

  29. I was given hope, then the rug was pulled out.

    But, I’ll be back tomorrow. Just watching on mute because national broadcast.

  32. To make matters worse this isn’t the first time we looked this bad in extras, there was that Orioles game we somehow miraculously won.

  33. At some point you have to realize this isn’t just players slumping, but being taught to approach hitting in a very poor manner. Cintron and Snitker’s time is done. Thanks for 2022, but your offensive philosophy is mediocre at best in almost every metric

  34. This division fucking blows. Mariners lost again and unbelievablly we continue to have 3.5 game lead. Seriously Cintron and Snitker need to be fired. We have the worst offense of any current playoff team with no fucking identity which showed in extras. 

  35. It is indeed pathetic that NO ONE could score a single run in the 11th and 12th, but the absolute worst thing to do was bring in the worst pitcher on the roster. Sorry not sorry but McCullers NEEDS to retire. He is past his prime. The game was bad in every angle possible, but McCullers throwing away the game so easily is a very clear reminder that he has got to go. 

  36. In a regular job, if you get the results that Cintron and Snitker get, you would be gone.
