Seattle isn't worried about catching Houston. They want to catch Oakland.

And how does trading away their best reliever get them to Oakland?

It's not official it's a white flag. They picked up a starter from the Pirates who's been pretty damn good lately.

Quote:
A number of Mariners players anonymously blasted general manager Jerry Dipoto to Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times, excoriating the executive for seemingly deciding to sell when the team is one game back from a playoff spot and sending away a clubhouse leader with little communication.

Here's how mad Mariners players are at Jerry Dipoto
Players reportedly described a clubhouse with palpable anger and smashed equipment after the trade. "Betrayed" was reportedly the word of the day.

Here's a sampling of the quotes:

“Are you (expletive) kidding me?” said the same player. “It never changes. They don’t care about winning. How do you trade him and say you care about winning? And you trade him to Houston? It never changes.”

“He hasn’t come down here,” a player said of Dipoto. “He sits up in his suite, playing fantasy baseball and rips apart our team without telling us anything.”

Another player via text said that “no one has heard a thing,” and later texted: “I’ve seen a lot of teammates walk out that door. But this one hurts the most and is the most (expletive) up. The team deserves an explanation.”

The only player named in the article was starting pitcher Marco Gonzalez, who was reportedly distraught to the point of tears upon learning about the trade.

Dipoto signed Roberto Baldoquin instead of Vlad Jr. and he blew up our farm so none of this surprises me.

Not so fast.. the Dodgers would like a word with Mike Rizzo, and they want Trey Turner as well.

With Washington committed to selling, will Schwarber be next?

That sets up Bryant or Kimbrel to the Rays. Maybe even both if the Cubs are willing to throw salary in. I'd love to see Xavier Edwards in Chicago at 2B, and that is not a crazy return at all given what the Dodgers just gave up.

Angels pulled Taylor Ward, Jordyn Adams, and Livan Soto so might have something cooking.

What could a rebuilding team give up to take a flier on Adell turning it around?

Angels should sit the fuck down and evaluate at the end of the season.

Yeah, like that is going to happen between Merlot Joe and goofy Arte.

That's what I think. If Trout and Rendon were back I could see going for it but they aren't and the bullpen is cancer. This bullpen is dogshit...there isn't one even somewhat reliable arm except for Iglesias and they should move him.

As I'm typing this Quintana just threw the ball away allowing a run to score then hit Olson in the ribs...

With Ruiz going to the Nationals, watch for Yan Gomes to be dealt to a team needing a backup catcher.

Hopefully Rick Hahn is still awake. Gomes is meh, but he is better than Seby.

He has 21 bombs and almost hit for the cycle tonight. I don't see him going anywhere. If they move him and everything starts to click it wouldn't look good. I'd actually move him to 1st.

Maybe they can step in front of the Rays and take Bryant and Kimbrel, moving Moncada to 2B. Cubs will take Jared Kelley.
