Discuss the season here.

Killin the Yanks today was nice. Prince with two blasts. Losing two to Minnesota was a joke though

Eh, it's no Casey Fien thread, but I guess it will do.

It's great to see us back to our Yankee destroying ways.

You blew it!

Though I think every decent starter in baseball got shelled yesterday, JV included

Welp, 4-3 sp far. Better hope we don't have too many more series like the one vs Minnesota in us.

April's historically been Verlander's weakest month, so I'm not concerned about the rough outing.

I was wondering when Don would get brought up, he's been playing like crap.

Leyland will always play his bench. We should all know by now Don Kelly will get at least triple the ABs he ever should

Smyly needs to be in the rotation over Porcello.

Yeah, that last start by Porcello could be terminal.

Rough last few games we've had, no doubt. This is shaping out to possibly be yet another lackluster start.

Eh, faced a very good Mariners staff and walked into a pissed off LA series. Not pretty, but it's early and we are getting the big West Coast trip over quick. Patience

Brayan Villarreal was optioned to Triple-A Toledo to make room for Valverde on the big league roster. The team will have a corresponding move Wednesday to open up space on the 40-man roster. Finally

Valverdes back and Rondons here. Now all we have to do is admit that Don Kelly isn't a MLB player.

Baby steps man, baby steps :lol:

After watching Kelly play, I'm thinking we'd be better served calling up Nick (even with the .243 average), QB (.225 but has speed at least), Garcia (Miggy Jr. assuming he's back from his heel injury), or essentailly ANYONE else.

I'm hoping the whole Kelly situation is a combination of people being not ready or injured, and not a certain someones blind faith in him (but sadly we all know the answer don't we).

Ryan Raburn, Brandon Inge, etc. Hope for what you want, but I think this is just a tradition for Leyland teams.
