My, Oh My!
Eric Young on BBTN: "The Mariner's are going to slug their way to the American League title."
Ok let me get this straight...
The Seattle Mariners (4.9 runs per game) are going to "slug" their way past the New York Yankees (5.9 runs per game), the Boston Red Sox (5.1 runs per game), the Los Angeles Angels (5.2 runs per game), and the Cleveland Indians (5.0 runs per game).
The Seattle Mariners (109 homeruns) are going to "slug" their way past the New York Yankees (145 homeruns), the Boston Red Sox (114 homeruns), the Detroit Tigers (137 homeruns), and the Cleveland Indians (134 homeruns).
My prediction: The Seattle Mariners (starting pitcher W/L record of 42-43), won't pitch themselves out of 2nd place, let alone get into the playoffs. Hell, maybe EY's basing their whole future off Sexon's 18th homerun today (he's hitting .206, .300 OBP, .399 SLG, .699 OPS [very very bad in all 4 cats]). Or maybe he's banking on Jeff "Dream" Weaver (4-10, 5.64 ERA and a WHIP of 1.5+) throwing CG Shutouts everytime he goes out there.
Keep on sluggin', M's.
*Note: Eric Young attended Rutgers University and graduated with High Honors in the are of bullshit baseball analysis and predictions.
*Note: The above note is false. Eric Young did attend Rutgers but I'm sure he didn't really "attend", since he was an athlete and all.
