Gretzky's Mullet

I went to the Mariners game today. Gawd, they suck at offense. 1-0 lead in the ninth and they blow it. They had the bases drunk with 1 out and they manage to get dick all. So frustrating.

Jack Z needs to get some power in that lineup before I drive all the way back down. Half the lineup is riddled with guys that have an avg under 200, and there's only two legit hitter in the team - Ichiro (no RBI) and Franky Guitierrez...pretty sad.

The Mariners have more than two legit hitters.

Sure, the team is off to a slow start, but they aren't alone. The bright spot for the Mariners is their pitching unlike the Orioles and Red Sox.

There were high expectations set the season but I'm sure they'll hit their stride in May.

Ichiro has three RBIs, what do you expect? He's a table setter.

Figgins is a solid leadoff/no. 2 guy. The guy has a career .363 OBP.

Jose Lopez is an underrated 2b in the league. He's at that prime age of 27. Quietly put up 25 hrs and 90+ rbi's last year for a Mariner's offense that struggled.

Expect to watch tight games when you visit Safeco. The offense is not going to give a whole lot of run support.
