Mariners -- Are they really THIS bad?

Question

I&#x27;ve been on them for small amounts for the last three games (thinking that they would get out of this losing funk and get at least one W)...but boy have they not (LOL). Blew a 3-0 lead on Sunday before walking in the winning run in extras and letting CLE explode...then having Rodney blow yet another save while leading 2-1 before giving up a 3-run HR in extras to lose 5-3. I loved watching them last season and had high hopes for them this season...but are they really this bad?! Their offense has been TERRIBLE outside of Cruz and Cano is taking his woes on defense as well. What is everybody&#x27;s thoughts on them? This bad? Just a funk that they&#x27;ll snap out of? Just blows my mind with all that talent.

All what talent?? You mean 3 or 4 guys?? They are an average team with a handful of guys that are really good

On paper Ms should have the best team in the division which is one reason I took them to win the West at even money. On paper they have a very dominant 1-5 lineup but the bottom of the order is killing them. I believe they lay too much of a longball game and got away from the hit and run speed that made them successful last year. Add in throwing 3 rookies into the rotation and that spelled a recipe for disaster. I believe they still have a shot to take the division as Astros will cool off eventually. Cano can&#x27;t possibly play as bad as he has all season. And you know what you will get with King Felix.

They should win today . Tanaka first game back on the road he&#x27;s going get rocked by Cruz , and cano

mabber · Answer

cano hasn&#x27;t "rocked" anyone all year. they&#x27;re the worst hitting team in the majors right now with a shaky bullpen. even when they get a lead into the 9th rodney routinely blows it.
