Trade Rumors INTENSIFY Despite Mariners' Midseason Collapse

[@urbansmokes]

I’ve been a diehard fan since ‘97, & have so many cherished memories at the kingdome/safeco. This season Completely demoralized me and I’m done being disillusioned…nothing will change, time has come to put pressure & boycott.. Not until this sorry excuse for a franchise is reformed top to bottom, & ownership is transferred to a serious buyer who wants to see the Ms get a pennant. The corrupt incompetency will continue to be business as usual..its to glaring to just shift a couple pieces, and expect 25 years of ineptitude to suddenly vanish. Choking a 10 game lead, going 9-20 since late June, everyone screaming for change, and receiving a middle finger from the organization. The culture is completely broken. If this was Boston or Philadelphia there’s no question the torch’s and pitchforks would be out, demanding answers.

What’s the worst team batting average for a year. .216 has go to be close right?

[@condlewis]

We're currently the 3rd worst batting average in a 100 years (apparently people sucked in the late 1800/early 1900s). 15th worst overall.

[@razkable]

​@@condlewis well back then the conditions were harder guys smoked had other jobs and didn't stay in shape

[@jlpsuroeste]

@@razkablebut nobody threw at 100 or even 90 mph.

[@condlewis]

@@razkable fair! it's just interesting because also most of the all-time records are also from those times, so people were both the best and the worst in baseball history. imo i feel like baseball stats should be separated by pre and post modern stats in some way but anywho

[@razkable]

​@@jlpsuroestethere also were only white men playing and teams didn't have deep rosters or talent pools scouts and the bigger markets got the best guys from teams...some of those pre 1900 teams played like 18 games as well and folded as teams

[@nissanjdm702]

Oh shit we just got Randy Arozarena !!!!

[@no_regerts5176]

Oh boy….

[@richburgardt8855]

A ,216 batting average. Hilarious!

[@gaberobison680]

My thoughts are simple. We don’t need any pitching prospects. We can deal literally everybody in our farm system if need be. Let’s buy a new RF, 3B, 1B and probably get a refreshed bench

[@Biff11235]

Don’t forget an actually good DH

[@J-XwaxRips]

I don't agree with going after Lou Bob why do we keep going after people that have injury problems or people that have be hurt ugh look at the mistake in Santos

[@gamefacesports6704]

Is there a way to watch Ben raneire show free or is it only pay to watch?

[@sammcbride2149]

Ahoy, Fellow Sufferers!

[@shawnuel]

Aiden Smith, Brody Hopkins and a player to be named later for Arozarena.

[@Vanessaira-Retro]

"Part of the Ship, part of the Crew" :(

[@charliecochran3035]

I'd be shocked if they weren't ready to move prospects for a big overhaul right now, even given it's the Mariners. They only need consider targets who they can keep for 2025 minimum though. At a minimum you're building next season's uograded roster right now while giving 2024 at least a fair shot.

[@Devineempowered]

Just sell the team!

[@yuriprater789]

They desperately need new hitters. At this point, make whatever deals necessary and give up whoever. I honestly don’t care. Tired of this mess. Get Rooker, Parades, Vlad, Roberts. JUST DO SOMETHING

[@shawnuel]

Randy Arozarena is in the Mariners clubhouse!

[@no_regerts5176]

He is hitting .211 and has struck out 100 times already. He has gotten worse every year of his career.

[@AndrewSmith-iy5vv]

@@no_regerts5176his bat has been on fire since June. This was a solid pickup

[@BigR3d76]

Mariners aren't going to make a blockbuster these losses have ownership in the driver seat to either get some pieces but not giving up the farm unfortunately

[@leroypoukkula8514]

Let the 2027 rebuild begin!

[@riloperron]

Jazz, Belli and Robert

[@Trainy2]

The malaise comes from the top down. It's a cursed franchise until the greed at the top is out. Love the Ms still because I'm an idiot

[@TouchingBasesPod]

This is the first time I have felt that Colby's attitude is reasonable. Good Episode in Bad Times.

[@UNIT557]

To all of the people who don't want the mariners to buy at this deadline... Would you like the mariners to trade for Robert in the offseason? Well then why not just do it now?

[@j.ruhland21]

Sell the team to an ownership group that actually gives a turd about this team. 😤

[@Devineempowered]

You have lost 20 of the last 30 games! They are not going to the playoffs. They should sell pitching to get bats

[@razkable]

​@@FriendlyNeighborhoodGentile since the first few games they been a .500 team....

[@michaelcarlton8439]

Ahoy guys! Does anyone have some duct tape to repair our hull? 😣💙💛

[@NicholasAugusta]

It’s on back order. 20 plus years now.

[@Mr_CGS]

Fire Scott Servais already

[@BlackMo60623]

Garrett Crochet, Robert,Pham, dejong,kopech💡👊🏿🎂🎂

[@BlackMo60623]

Championship 😂

[@gturcott1]

Big move today, need one more

[@darinweller5282]

Everything thing Kobly said comes back to how you manage a team. And when you lose your team, you've lost the year. 😢 Sorry

[@aaroncostello8812]

Arozarena!!

[@tomtaylor1386]

Jerry! Call Buck Showalter!

[@420gzuz]

i remember seattle lineups that would score 11-20 per game well over a dozen times in a given season. the most viable solution right now is not for us to sacrifice our own key players for a so-so guy on the trade block. the key to revamping this lineup is to add more high-performance org depth. age doesn't matter. what matters is guys, preferably with options, who have destroyed AAA pitching for at least the past couple months straight. guys are out there doing this but who are blocked by star players in their org. guys like ryan ward in the dodgers organization. between a few bullpen arms, hancock, and a few of our own depth pieces who are blocked in our org, and not to mention cash considerations, we can bring in a few top level depth pieces on the cheap and put a healthy squeeze on our lineup to either start hitting or ride some pine and be replaced by someone else who has earned the opportunity and who projects well.

[@razkable]

You can't win with just 1 great bat or 2 very good bats..this team has 1 above average bat most games...lol

[@razkable]

The last 2 seasons and early this year made people think they were not a poverty franchise....

[@gingerfitdad5091]

Get Robert, dejong and kopech

[@420gzuz]

we got 4 innings of sub-7 era from santos. its all good. how about we trade thornton to the dodgers for the power hitting corner outfielder they have stashed in aaa who is not even on their 40 man roster? it would substantially bolster our offense at a very low cost. i'm telling you.

[@gaberobison680]

Thornton is good. Our only other good leverage reliever besides Munoz is Speier. No deal

[@martinherzog9441]

Trade France for a decent reliever maybe?

[@gaberobison680]

You’re totally right that we are defeated mentally. We need to ask Julio and JP to really sacrifice and be teachers and coaches while they recover to try and save morale. Front Office needs to give us Vlad or Alonso and a new right fielder to prove it

[@420gzuz]

i really really really don't want mountcastle in seattle's lineup. here is why: i have this weird reflex, whenever i hear the name MOUNTCASTLE, my brain goes into tourettes mode and immediately i hear "MOUTHASSHOLE"

[@gomariners9123]

I guarantee the Ms turn things around
