Endlessly creative ways to make unproductive outs as soon as runners get on. What a team.

Pena one of the top 3 averages in the league - tries to bunt with no outs. Sigh

Don't think I'd take the bat out of the hands of my best hitter

It it was a coaching decision, that's fireable. I hope he did it on his own

Mariners ahead 3-2 in the 5th. Three solo homers including Raleigh's 51st.

At least they put a few pitches on Fried this inning. 2025 moral victory #117.

Were you expecting a major league offense that's in first place to be able to score with multiple runners on base and no outs?

Same **** always with these guys.

That catastrophe started with a poor decision to bunt.

Back to the standard 2 on, no outs = no runs standard operating procedure

Gifted 2 runners on, no outs

Top of lineup fails

Everything about it is infuriating.
Pena walked to leadoff the game, he almost never walks.

Fried just walked Dubon, who really never walks, and then is so out of control he pegs Salazar.
You wait for him to throw a strike before you swing at anything.

On top of that, this is Pena's 81st game batting leadoff. He's hitting .323 in the role. He's light years better than your next best hitter at getting a hit. It's just so frustratingly stupid.

Offense has great game yesterday for the first time in a week. Multiple hits with RISP, extra base hits and multi homeruns. So what's the next move?

Change up the lineup, sit your best hitter. Seems smart to me?
BadAggie
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Can't take out Salazar without burning the DH with Diaz there, right?

Twisted Helix
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Is it even possible to load manage the DH? Seems like he could at least swing the bat, I mean he probably took bp didn't he.

Stupid lineup is stupid

You know, its not like Yordan got 4 months off so he definitely needs some days off now…in the middle of a division race

Why doesn't Josh Hader make a fortune by inventing a alt-sports drink called Hader-ade?

Oh and leave sanchez on the bench against a guy he has a 1000+ OPS against
BadAggie

This is a head scratcher lineup

This offense sucks. It didn't magically flip just because they had a blind squirrel game.

I'd like Yordan to be playing too but Correa, Altuve, Walker, and Peña would still have been as unproductive tonight with or without him. Before you even get to the same thing you always get from Diaz.

Again.

and again

and again

and again

I don't care if Cintron and Snitker have the universal cheat codes to Crane's lingerie drawer, I would like to see what our hitters could do with some new blood guiding their approaches.

Kinda think Framber needs Diaz behind the plate

Yes. But 8 & 9 lead off the inning getting on base. Then Pena, Correa, and Altuve **** the bed. Yes, I'd have liked yordan in there. But we're ****ed if those three can't produce regardless
