I think Dipoto is doing it the right way. At the start of the "rebuild", they loaded up on pitching prospects and it is paying off. Do I wish they had a couple more bats? Sure, but it's a pitcher's ballpark. I think they are trying to build something sustainable for the long haul. Mortgaging your future for a big name free agent can be a rabbit hole that takes years to exit.

I agree with this, small markets, and yes, Seattle is a small market team in comparison to NYC, LA, Texas/Houston, etc, have to build through the draft, then, and only then, make a smart move or 2 at the right time to make a WS run. It's what the Royals did in their run to the WS (made it to WS 7th game) in 2014 and then winning in 2015. It was costly, they emptied the farm system, then had to rebuild that; Royals record-wise are a disaster, but they have a decent young crop of players, including some promising young pitchers, so look out world, here they come!!!!

cheers

If by some remote chance it would ever happen, it would definitely be on a Tuesday....
 
Woo hoo .500 baby. They dropped to .500 in the only way they know how, by shitting the bed. 10-3. We need new management.
 
They should just record the Scott Servais post game interview after the first loss of the season and just play it after every loss. He says basically the same thing every time.
This team needs some old style Lou Piniella in your face to wake them out of their funk.They won’t get that with Servais.

I got a good chuckle from the 500 comment then lost it on the self reply 😆

My coworkers don’t understand the hype when I tell them we are back to 500 or when I start pouring shots for a game above.
 
Eugenio Suarez ties the game at 3 in the bottom of the 7th, woot let’s go!

Edit: then give up a run through a wild pitch next inning. Nothing to see here carry on.

Let’s face it
They are committed to sucking. Plain and simple
Franchise makes money
Bottom line
Until they change ownership they will continue to suck . It’s their business model
