Just bow down to Mr. Gutierrez...he's got a flare for the dramatic, a golden glove, and a future as a 30 HR slugger and MVP candidate (yes I said MVP candidate).
King Felix has been kingly all year...he's won two different games 1-0. He put the hurt on Texas (and Morrow blew it) once already. He dominated the Angels once already. He dominated Boston twice. He is the AL Cy Young...Zach Greinke be damned.
This team has a 1995-vibe in a few other ways too...fighting tooth-and-claw without a huge veteran leader (Beltre)...GM telling the guys he's in the fight with them by trying to acquire Freddy Sanchez and/or Jack WIlson, fans starting to get into every late inning rally, blog-land excitement building...
PythagenMatt says the Mariners have played .489 ball this year after tonight's 3-1 win...they need to add some pieces if they want that to go up and if they want to win the west...but it's not like it's that hard to upgrade when three of your line-up spots are OPS+ing 50.
