I'll be glad to be done with these guys after today. They're going to be a tough out for the rest of the season. Don't know why they struggled as long as they did. 

Because they are bad hitting team.

Brach talking like he pitched way back in the 80's. 

That is because babying pitchers has accelerated quite a bit since he retired.  Making a big deal of throwing 3 days in a row is just one example.

Agreed. Them and the Astros are 2 teams I am NOT looking forward to seeing in the playoffs (assuming SEA even makes it)

Nice job, Cano!

No, he was saying "Back when I played, you'd get yelled at for throwing a breaking ball in a 3-1 count". Nonsense.

[Ripken]

If we score, Cano probably comes back out.

He's a box of chocolates, but he is capable of dominating so we'll see what we get.

This is a rough 10 games stretch, starting with Houston, Seattle, and San Diego is tough too. Manny in lineup.

Manny does not play for SD.  His name shall not be mentioned.

Let's hit the guy we won against last night.

Am I wrong or has Mountcastle jumped like 50 points in batting average in the last few weeks?  He's up over 270 now.
