  1. A negative-value trade proposal that does not involve the Red Sox: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trades/trade-88834/
  2. What about Seattle manager Scott Servais, whose team would be in the postseason for the first time since 2001 if the season ended today? Three weeks ago the Mariners fell 10 games under .500 at 29-39 after losing four of five at home to the lowly Los Angeles Angels. Seattle has since won 16 of 19 as the M's await the returns of Mitch Haniger, Kyle Lewis, Jesse Winker and Taylor Trammell. With an Opening Day payroll that ranked 22nd at about $94 million, the Mariners trail the Red Sox by two games with a projected easier schedule the remainder of the year.
  3. At .494, the sixth-easiest in the American League, according to FanGraphs: https://www.fangraphs.com/standings/playoff-odds
  4. Given this vapid exchange, you'd think middle schoolers were out for the summer. Who wants to discuss baseball?
  5. https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=c&stats=bat&lg=al&qual=30&type=8&season=2022&month=0&season1=2022&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&startdate=2022-01-01&enddate=2022-12-31
  6. The Mariners should trail the Guardians by one game after tonight's game but needed a Red Sox win tonight to move within three games of the Rays for the final Wild Card berth.
  7. The Red Sox scored 33 runs in a three-game road series May 24-26 against the Chicago White Sox (and still lost one game).
  8. No worries. The Nationals are unlikely to trade Josh Bell for Brandon Walter, a former 26th-round draft pick who has pitched only 7.2 inning above Double A as the lefthander approaches his 26th birthday in September.
  9. Ken Giles, who has surrendered one hit and no runs in four appearances since his activation June 20, was mentioned as a potential trade target in an Over the Monster podcast last month: https://www.overthemonster.com/2022/6/10/23162366/the-red-seat-podcast-early-trade-targets ZiPS projects Carlos Santana with a rest-of-season wRC+ of 113; to date Red Sox first basemen have posted a wRC+ of 81. Santana has played in 58 games this season and in June posted a cherry-picked .323/.450/.492/.942 line in 80 plate appearances.
  10. Would the Red Sox have any interest in reliever Ken Giles or first baseman Carlos Santana of the Seattle Mariners?
  11. Alejandro Kirk is a 23-year-old who had posted a .322/.411/.525/.936 (OPS+ 166) in 231 plate appearances this year before leading off the bottom of the ninth inning with a single tonight. In what universe is Kirk a "beer league softball player"?
  12. FWIW after Wednesday's games the Seattle Mariners led all teams with 469 runners left on base while the Red Sox were 10th with 442: https://www.baseball-reference.com/leagues/majors/2022.shtml
  13. It happens. As a team the Red Sox stranded 13 runners today but in losing a three-game weekend series the Seattle Mariners outhit the Red Sox 24-18 while stranding 29 runners (and the Red Sox only 16).
  14. Yep. I sat in stunned silence Sunday in the top of the eighth inning.
  15. Rafael Devers hit an 0-and-2 pitch that was way out of the strike zone. Not a bad pitch by Paul Sewald but Devers is a great hitter. Sewald surrendered two late-inning go-ahead home runs in two games separated by less than 24 hours. Ouch.
  16. I am at the game, the 24th straight Red Sox game against an opponent with a current losing record. How is that possible?
  17. Ken Giles? A recent Over the Mountain podcast mentioned Giles, who is expected to come off Seattle's IL, as a potential Red Sox trade target. Seattle has designated for assignment reliever Drew Steckenrider, who has a 2.63 ERA and 16 saves since the start of the 2021 season.
  18. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2022/06/roberto-osuna-signs-with-npbs-chiba-lotte-marines.html
  19. On to the series win on Sunday ... for one team.
  20. ... and the runners left on base (12 Friday night and nine so far Saturday evening).
  21. As did the error by J.P. Crawford.
  22. ... where Seattle native Bobby Dalbec said his favorite professional teams were the Seattle Mariners, Seattle Seahawks and Oklahoma City (Seattle Supersonic) Thunder: https://arizonawildcats.com/sports/baseball/roster/bobby-dalbec/2353
  23. The Red Sox have beaten the Seattle Mariners five times in a season for the first time since the 2013 World Series champions went 6-1 against the M's (who returned the favor the following year with a 5-1 record against the 71-91 Sox).
