    Mariners think they got this, but they DO NOT. Astros save coming up.

    everybody above is lost today, what a huge day. If we can sweep tomorrow then and win 2 out of 3 at OAK i think we squeeze in.

    Does anyone here have any updated information on Lance?

    32,000 fans in attendance for seattle with the same record as us, no playoffs last year and happen to share the city with some nfl team.

    cy young pitching this series. Hope fister can find muster up more than 4 innings.

    Enjoying the wins. Today we did just enough. Great pitching top to bottom and some timely hits.


    Last I heard, he was long tossing two days ago.. still not throwing from a mound.

    Sadly, I don't factor him this season.

    That loss to the Rangers via blown save really hurt.

    We need Dallas or Lance back...it's too hard to win consistently with our rotation.

    Either that, or we need to consistently put up like 6-8 runs a game down the home stretch.

    Just when I think it's all but over for the playoffs they pull me back in! Today was a perfect day results wise amongst all the teams the Astros are chasing.

    Yep, now all we need to do is win 56 straight one run games to match the Rangers winning% in them.

    Great start from Fiers, the rotation has been much more stable over the last week. But every starter still feels like a ticking time bomb that can pitch us out of a game before we have a chance.

    Just keep winning, Orioles and Blue Jays have really tough schedules, including a series against each other.

    great win. I predicted McHugh...didn't expect a damn thing from Fiers. What a showing. Keep it up and let's see what happens!

    the a's, rays and angels aren't giving anything away. props to them for not shutting it down but starting monday they should. i'm only thinking of their future. except the rays, they need to continue gelling.

    They couldn't ask for a more favorable schedule to close out the season.
