STOP IT!
Bob Finnigan does it again
It can be significant: Anaheim beat up bad teams in 2002 to turn around a slow start and win a world championship. But Seattle so far has wasted one potential turning point after another.
Through 61 games, the Mariners are 25-36, 12 games back of Oakland.
Through 61 games in 2002, the Angels were 37-24, 1 game back of the Mariners.
This isn't the first time I've seen a comparison between the 2002 Anaheim Angels and the 2004 Seattle Mariners. Every time I see something like this, I get dumber for reading it.
Here's the deal, folks. This ballclub is not going to make a run. The master of the obvious, I know.
Mariners. Brew Crew. Tuesday. Drink up.
