Seattle Mariners Game 9 Notes

Yes this is late, I apologize. I've drafted a number of different responses to the game yesterday, but I couldn't feel good about any of them. I do my best to be positive on this blog. As frustrating as it is to lose, it's even worse to read blogs ripping on your team.

For that reason I have decided to scratch my notes about the game yesterday, and instead will just say this.

There aren't very many Pirates fans. Those that are I'm sure struggle every single day with their fanhood. As a Mariners fan I too have struggled with my fanhood over the year as I am continually disappointed. While the Mariners aren't nearly as frustrating, or as crappy as the Pirates, I can't help but feel that there must be some kind of clubhouse chemistry issues that are contributing to the Mariner's recent struggles. I can't blame everything on Jack Wilson as the team was struggling before his incident. The Mariner's roster isn't the greatest offensive lineup every created. But it should be doing better than it is. The pitching staff has been struggling as of late as well, and they can only get better. Eventually I have to think things will get better, but if whatever is hampering this team behind closed  doors isn't fixed soon this might be a very, very painful summer.
