As i write this blog post it seems the Mariners are intent on blowing this game. so i'm just going to assume they are still under .500
All the things being done and all the blog posts being made it makes me wonder whats best to pick on at this point. What hasn't been touched on... well ..
First off a few lessons we all need to know
Jarrod Washburn .. isn't going to keep up with 2.30 ERA lets understand that
Wlad Balentine is showing he can hit big league pitching in a small sample size
We are getting killed by RHP because of the lack of left handed hitters in the line-up
Outside of Gutz, Griffey and Chavez no one is able to work the count and draw a walk.
Players that we had low expectations for like Branyan, Chavez, Balentine and Gutierez has turned out very well.
Players that we had expected to play worth their contract just arn't. Between Lopez, Beltre and Johjima just have slowed things down.
Griffey has slowly gotten better and better despite his low avg he has done an amazing job with working counts and drawing walks.
Our starting pitching is looking kinda thin... with silva looking like he needs to be moved out of the rotation and RR-S not ready to be back until the end of the month we are realying on Jason Vargas (who is doing a pretty good job) and Chris Jaskasbaukas (who is having his ups and downs) with Garret Olson another avilable option if Jak needs to be pulled.
I should really do a blog on our minor league starting pitchers, and some possible trade scenarios i'm behind... soo maybe thats where i'm going .. anyways ...
there we are ...some things to think about for now
