THE PUMP 7/3/05 



Rangers at Mariners, 1:05 Pacific (FSN Northwest)

Kenny Rogers (9-3, 2.46 ERA) vs Jamie Moyer (6-3, 4.88 ERA)

---Welcome back to the Pump, Scott Spiezio.

---Islands In The Stream, that is what we are! If the Mariners were smart, they would hand out disposable cameras to the first 20,000 fans who come through the gates, since Kenny Rogers is on the mound today. The Rogers camera story beats the Randy Johnson cameras tussle by a mile.

---Oh, and 20 games is a joke. You want to know why Bud Selig isn't half the commissioner David Stern is? Stern suspended Ron Artest for the rest of the season after his involvement in the incident at the Palace in Auburn Hills last November. What does Selig do to Rogers? 20 games and a $50,000 fine. 20 games for a starting pitcher equals 4 starts, so really, Rogers is only going to miss 4 starts, once he starts his suspension. Unreal.

It's time to win. Seven losses in a row is enough.

NO CAMERAS!

UPDATE AT 12:15 P.M. Pacific: Bret Boone has been designated for assignment!

Dave Hansen has been placed on the 15-day DL with elbow tendinitis. 2B Jose Lopez and OF Chris Snelling have been called up from Triple-A Tacoma to fill the two open roster spots (Boone and Hansen). We're not calling him Doyle here. What, are the USS Mariner guys going to take our link off of their sidebar for not calling him Doyle? Heh.

So, let's see who chose JULY 3 as the day Boone would be traded or DFA'd, as part of the Bret Boone Death March...

We have a "winner". It's Tom!

July 3rd. Just in time for Independence Day.

Congratulations, Tom. What do you win?

Well, Sports And Bremertonians doesn't have the budget for any prizes. But hey, congratulations anyway. You got the exact date right, so that has to mean something.

Alright, now I feel better about this team.
