    HEY! I bought a pair of tickets....ok, they were to Mike's game...but they were in section 112!

    When do you think you guys will be competing? You think Felix will be apart of that? I obviously don't see much Mariners baseball being on the east coast, but I hear things are pretty grim right now.

    Yeah, grim is a pretty good word for it. But there are still some things definitely worth watching this year. Felix and Ichiro (going for the 200 hit season record this year)...but most interesting for me is Michael Pineda and Justin Smoak...and who knows when they'll call Ackley up. We also have a 3rd baseman name Liddi in AAA right now who I think will be up soon, maybe next year.

    The Dustin and Justin show is coming 2013...and yes, Felix will be a part of it. :D

    haha, well good luck. I always like the Mariners more than any of the other AL West teams (except when Ichiro hit that bomb off Mo, and '95) and there is always something worth watching for in Baseball. I could watch Legion games and be happy. You guys definitely have a bunch of kids with some serious potential. Smoak is off to a great start this year, right?

    If you guys want a few more young pieces, I hear the Yankees have a great catching prospect and a few top pitching prospects they may be willing to part with, haha. Never gonna happen but just saying.

    This is true, I think the Yankees would only include Montero and Banuelos in a trade for Felix or Josh Johnson at this point.

    I am sure, it was a great win for you guys. I can't be too mad either, that season turned out alright for the Yanks.

    That's the problem I have with the Mariners right now. It seems like we're the farm team for the rest of the MLB. We get some really good prospects, but trade them after a season or so. Nobody is ever here long enough to excel, with the exception of Felix and Ichiro. My patience is all but exhausted with Jack Z.
