Oh good god yes. And half of those are mine. Or one-fourth, I guess. Hee hoo! I was just thinking earlier today that I’ll hardly have to pay for Mariners tickets this year; I’ve already got them! Hurrah!

Ooh, a new picture. ‘Tis pretty.
Zach Clem’s brother is playing for the Bells this summer. And not a single player from last year’s abysmal embarrassment.
Tell me though: Rey Ordoñez? Is he not like an aged, slow, less dirty Willie Bloomquist? Why is he going to be on our team? Is that allowed?
And you shouldn’t be worried about the closer. You should be worried about the setup guy, and the number two starter, and the number three starter, and the number four starter, and the number five starter…

Yeah, when I wrote that I was worried about J.J., he was getting an MRI on his elbow. I don’t think we can afford many injuries this year.
I agree that Rey Ordonez will likely be useless, along with our bench in general. Luckily (kind of), I don’t think our bench will be utilized much. Unless there are injuries…
I think I’m a little more confident than most people going into the season here. For the most part this spring, even early on when we were losing all our games, our regulars have been performing well. Even our starting pitchers with the exception of Weaver are playing well. Our starting lineup has hit really well except Richie Sexson, Jose Lopez, to a lesser extent Kenji Johjima.
At our current pace, the thing I’m worried most about is our middle relief. But I think they’re playing well, we’ll see if it translates to the regular season in THREE MORE DAYS!!!
Meghan and I are going to the game next Tuesday…Jarrod Washburn, we’ll see how he does.
