Grand Salami Time

Someone point me to the official rule of the 1st basmen standing on the bag during a pickoff

⚾ MARINERS LEGENDS: 122-40 WAR: 72.1 🚀 PLAYOFFS! Top 5: Ichiro Suzuki, Alex Rodriguez, Ken Griffey Jr., Julio Rodriguez, Edgar Martinez Built on Grand Salami Time grandsalamitime.com/build-your-mar… #Mariners #SeaUsRise

@MarinersONTap I think polo is equal priority if not more... good hitter, great power for 2b, most clutch hitter in MLB this season... for way cheaper price tag

I think all Mariners fans agree Josh Naylor is the PRIORITY this offseason... Who do you think is 2nd? Jorge Polanco?

Here is a summarized view of the Mariners Offseason. Assuming we do not re-sign Garver and pay the $1M penalty, We likely have around $154M of payroll.... Without Polo, Naylor, or Suarez. The $166M noted as a starting point, means we could sign Jorge Polanco for $12M... But then we do not have Naylor or Suarez still. @MarinerMuse @MarinersONTap @tridenttrue Full analysis here: grandsalamitime.com/the-grand-sala…

@A_Jude Great Article. Just sharing some analysis why the $166M is not enough to sign Naylor or Suarez this offseason grandsalamitime.com/the-grand-sala…

@legalsubmission @IamTrevorMay Idk what you're saying? Kent is a little South. It is not North

@AirJacobson2 @IamTrevorMay A little, he lives here he knows it’s in Kent

Baseball peeps in the Greater Seattle area. I’m looking for a local baseball cage to workout in regularly, ideally on the east side in the Bellevue area. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Also, if anyone knows of any places for rent for a cage, I’ll take it.

@RobertFrey40 @tangotiger Are you optimizing for outs? Or runs saved?

Thanks to advice from @tangotiger, I made some adjustments to fielder distances up the middle. Here's what an optimized position would look like for George Springer (regular + postseason data) #analytics #mlbpostseason

@MLBFrOfcTakes @tangotiger @RobertFrey40 Fair. Even his gut feeling is better than analysis simulations, and optimizations.

@tangotiger @AirJacobson2 @RobertFrey40 Guys! Tom Tango says it’s zero so it must be zero! Don’t doubt authority!

Ohtani's postseason batted ball data is hilarious if you think about it. If only there weren't shift restrictions, then the fielder optimization would be much, much different. #analytics #mlbpostseason

@tangotiger @RobertFrey40 I dont disagree with you on the LF or RF playing too far back though

@AirJacobson2 @RobertFrey40 No. The chance that you want the CF to cover the short sides for the corner OF while giving up all the deep balls at CF is zero. There's a reason no CF ever plays as short as both corners.

@tangotiger @RobertFrey40 Optimization i worked on also said CF should play in. Even julio who is one of the shallowist cf plays too deep grandsalamitime.com/the-grand-sala…

@RobertFrey40 would your optimzation show similar? Would love to connect grandsalamitime.com/the-grand-sala…

@tangotiger @RobertFrey40 Wth the CF playing in, he can help cover the nalls that drop short. Staggering can be more efficient

@RobertFrey40 You have the LF and RF playing deeper than the CF.... maybe I can buy the RF depth (MAYBE).... but in no way can that be true for the LF

@PuckSports Is it really just about player participation? What is this... Bellevue Boys and Girls Club sports or high school football?

Troubling development with the Skyline football team. Once again it appears that some parents are at the heart of it. instagram.com/p/DQAX3zuEpNA/…

Are the balls dead when the mariners bat?

@MarinerMuse @tomnau27 Just being sarcastic about Julio and Polanco.. of course they are good players lol

@AirJacobson2 @tomnau27 Polanco and Julio are good players

This is incomprehensible if Robles can swing

@MarinerMuse @tomnau27 Yeah, he is now. Some players take patience. All players have bright spots and dark times

@tomnau27 @MarinerMuse He was an inch from a HR yesterday. The and the guy hit .300 this season. Polanco and Julio have had rough streaks this year and Dan stuck with them for some reason

@MarinerMuse Dan’s hoping Dom runs into one which is about the only upside he has.

@rgfray1 Ok... a couple bad actors waving...

@rgfray1 People cheer all the time for players who are able to walk off the field or show positive signs of health

Seattle mariner fans cheering and waving goodbye to George Springer after he took a fast ball to the knee… Stay classy Seattle #bluejays
