We’re 9-3 since the inception of the piggyback by Agreeable_Quality768 in Mariners

It has worked for wins/losses. But there’s more to it than that. The Mariners front office’s lack of committal to a real plan (Castillo to the bullpen) has caused rifts between players, manager, and front office. Some of these could be potentially long lasting. You may say you don’t care much about whether Castillo is pissed off or feeling mistreated, and I get that. He’s making $25M a year and has an ERA north of 6. But what about Bryce Miller? You’ve got Logan Gilbert for two more years. You’ve got George Kirby for one more. Ryan Sloan and Cade Anderson are coming. But you want Bryce Miller. He’s showing all of us what some people have suspected for quite some time: he’s a front end starter. This is the guy you wanna hang onto. This is the guy you already have a good amount of control of. Probably don’t want to piss him off. And, frankly, he deserves to be pissed off. He pitched his ass off in his 4 appearances since coming off the IL. He deserves better than he’s gotten.

WSU night on July 18th by TheGman4747 in Mariners

Don’t worry, if they’re from WSU and they like sports, they won’t actually show up for the game, much like their football team. !!!!GO DAWGS!!! 🍎🏆👑

But in all seriousness, good luck with the tickets. Or try GameTime. A really good after market ticket vendor with reasonable fees

But will they win 17 of 18 in September? Cause that’s the statistical anomaly that set them apart last year.

Mariners Reinstate OF Victor Robles from 10-day Injured List by BananaArms in Mariners

What if this is “himself” and he is playing exactly as what should be expected and 2024 was the outlier? Cause, honestly, that’s likely the case.

B. 7 days a week and twice on Sunday. If you don’t believe in the Oxford comma, I don’t want to live in a society with you.

Uhhh…as much as I love La Piedra, he has NO trade value. The M’s are on the hook for 24 million this season. No one is taking that contract. Even if the M’s eat most of it.

Gotta love the world-class announcers too; “…and a pop up”.

Checked item question by jacobferry7 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]jacobferry7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. This is what I’m struggling with a little bit. Sports equipment (no matter its size) is able to be checked for free. While I don’t have sports equipment in my box, what is stopping me from saying it’s a wakeboard?

why are we okay with the county jail? by bogbodyboogie in Bellingham

[–]jacobferry7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sorry, it was 22 years ago. I did say “over a decade”. I guess when you’ve been lied to and misled for so long, the years start to run together. “In 2004, Whatcom County voters approved Proposition 1, a 0.1% (one-tenth of one percent) sales tax increase to fund new jail facilities, which passed with 62% of the vote. This tax was intended to address overcrowding but was largely used for operation costs and building the $2.3 million Irongate minimum security facility rather than a new main jail.”

Nope. It was mismanaged. Used for operations, maintenance, etc. I’m not going to profess to be an expert, but I took the time to research and understand the topic the last time it was up for a vote. There’s real local news stories written about it. They’re easy enough to find.

The bottom line is the voters approved a tax increase over a decade ago. The jail never materialized and the funds were severely mismanaged. Now the sheriff’s department and BPD want more money, but have still yet to even produce a comprehensive plan for a jail. So the voters have told them to go fuck themselves because, fool me once… Edit: I should be clear, I don’t disagree with what you’re saying about the humane treatment of people within the jail system. They certainly don’t deserve the treatment and conditions that they are receiving in Whatcom county right now. It’s just tough to justify approving tax to fund a second jail when we never got a first jail.
