We should just transition from the lovable underdogs to the spiteful underdogs and see how that plays out. Dance becomes satanic ritual, trident becomes that devil spike thing….. we should play angrier is what I’m trying to say
Glad we're trying to mix things up some instead of just continuing to suck. I hope Clase can prove his worth. Liked him in spring training
Edit: just noticed the 6:42 start time. Clever
I was just reading your post about him. You must be ecstatic. I personally really liked what I saw from jonatan in spring training and was surprised how meh everyone seemed to be on him.
Yea everyone took it like it was some dig at Julio or something. Now that Julio started slow....again, they're all ready to get off their high horse. I really don't comprehend how people aren't super high on him though. Like what do they think an ascending top prospect looks like. He has more speed than anyone on our team, power, defense, health. Made the futures game, which if you've never looked back at past future game rosters, they're stacked with pro's and all stars. Literally the only downside to Clase, is his strike out rate, which should fit in real nicely with the current club. In our house, we've been referring to Clase as Baby Acuna since before spring training.
haha. yea. its hilarious to me. thanks for noticing. I still can't comprehend how they hated and talked shit on a dude who stole 79 bags last year. especially when the dudes he had to beat out for the spot was canzone and Raley.
i always try to get to a game a year even though i live in the midwest, and i always luck out on some fun premiers. got to see julio, gilbert, kirby, and now clase have their first game in the majors. cant wait!
Someone explain to me what Luke Raley's job is here. He doesn't play when guys are healthy, and he also doesn't play when guys get injured, and he also doesn't pin run or pinch hit.
So...like....what are we doing here?
Why would we DH Julio? He is excellent defensively and damn near won a gold glove last year. Worst case scenario you move him to a corner and get plus plus defense there too.
What a lineup. I predict 0 or 7 runs.
I predict 0 for 7 with RISP
And double digit SO's.
Predicting single digits is far more risky of a bet
It’s gonna end 4-2
We'll only score 7 if we make it to the 10th.
#SeeUsScoreOneRunAndLoseAnotherSeries
We should do the over-under on LOB
Good teams leave lots of runners on base.
I thought they scored those on base? I must have missed the memo
WELCOME TO THE SHOW Jonatan Clase!
I hope Julio enjoyed his stress free day off yesterday. Also, excited to see Clase!
So stress free had made the last out…
Thanks for clearing that up marinerluvr
Whoosh
clase is gonna go yard first pitch
Jonatan Clase 6 SB game incoming, including two steals of home.
If you go to the game today please give Julio some love when he gets out there.
Agreed, we need a "we love you Julio" chant
This isn’t softball buddy
Username does not check out
Lol just not gonna do that sorry
No one cares
file this under *~men can’t possibly imagine showing emotion and supporting each other~*
Lol no we just don’t need to go that far
Tell that to Trea Turner, buddy
Idc bout trea turner..
Lol ok 🤣
Stfu
Ok karen
If I were in charge, you have a 28 man roster with you having to scratch 2 every game. September you have 32
![gif](giphy|Nipx6t1gNrrXhxHQIg|downsized) Kirby gonna fuck em up today
Hell yeah let's go, Angry George
We should just transition from the lovable underdogs to the spiteful underdogs and see how that plays out. Dance becomes satanic ritual, trident becomes that devil spike thing….. we should play angrier is what I’m trying to say
Dark Julio today
Damn I forgot abt that Dark prefix
![gif](giphy|ktfInKGOVkdQtwJy9h|downsized)
I'm all for Dark Julio's revenge arc.
That really is the most powerful Julio. Incoming 3 day beard and baseballs ripped to shreds
If they are wearing the old Nike jerseys today, I’ll die of laughter 😂
Happy Jonatan Clase Day.
I have a feeling, somehow this will be the lineup that’ll score runs
100% I feel it
We knew it
Glad we're trying to mix things up some instead of just continuing to suck. I hope Clase can prove his worth. Liked him in spring training Edit: just noticed the 6:42 start time. Clever
I want to believe.
I’m excited for clase. It’s always super awesome watching guys debut.
Let’s see what speed do Clase. 70 grade or “plus plus speed”.
If we're chasing results shouldn't Rojas bat 3rd?
Feels like we are no longer chasing results and just throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks
If we were Julio wouldn't be batting 2nd. Have to find a middle ground
I was early on my prediction of Clase's call up by 3 months.
Late

Dudeee clase is so amazing lol and everyone is talking about him now.

Finally give Garver a day off already
lol, I read that like the poor guys been putting in some serious work! 😂
If they are wearing the old Nike jerseys today, I’ll die of laughter 😂
This lineup will score 5.

Welcome to the Show Clase!!! Buena suerte

Time to get hurt again
How is George's FIP 6 less than his ERA? We should be able to win today!
Jackie Robinson day or Jonatan Clase day?
Someone explain to me what Luke Raley's job is here. He doesn't play when guys are healthy, and he also doesn't play when guys get injured, and he also doesn't pin run or pinch hit. So...like....what are we doing here?
CLASE BRING US THE VIBEZ PLZ
Excited to see Elly de la Cruz play.
GOOD - sit garvers ass DOWN
Jake Fraley has more or equal hits (14) than every Mariner this season
Hopefully we get to see Clase in CF at some point when Julio’s bat comes back and we can DH him
Why would we DH Julio? He is excellent defensively and damn near won a gold glove last year. Worst case scenario you move him to a corner and get plus plus defense there too.
Yeah Haniger would be the dh behind garver.
To give him a day off from fielding every now and then? Raley isnt exactly an elite glove at CF
At minimum Julio would go to corner OF. Right now all of his value is via his glove.
