Fister's Arsenal, 8.16.09
Lonnie, the big cheese at Mariner Central, has some on-the-spot Fister intel here.
Nice Guys Finish Last . . . unless
they figure out how to do battle on their own terms.
Irate (Or the Emotion Wakamatsu SHOULD be Showing)
Bases loaded, two outs, bottom for the sixth, must-win game for a team facing nothing but must-win games from here on out. Yankees have been stalled at 4 runs and the Mariners are threatening to make a game of it.
Tui's potential
We mused about Tuiasosopo's 900-point OPS swing when ahead or behind in the count.
To The Press (Re: Bedard)
BTW, as a followup on the Bedard issue I posted about last night, here is the text of an email I sent to the host in question - would love to see some dialogue on the air about him in that context, but I'm not holding my breath.

Can We Finally Stop Trashing Bedard?
Not us, of course, but the media in general. Listening to the afternoon guy on the local sports station yesterday, a guy I actually like more than all of the other ones, made me want to hurl. After talking about how Bedard was going to have exploratory surgery tomorrow (today), he was surmising that Bedard had likley pitched his last game this season, perhaps for his short M's career; then thanking a deity for it.
First, I'm not sure why we'd be so happy that Bedard wasn't going to pitch.
