I know weāre all mad, frustrated, disappointed, etc & we all have our own ways on expressing our feelings / opinions I donāt want all the players to fail. especially guys like Cal, Julio & the rest. But itās just knowing the trend on how the Mariners always act like this. just feel numb & still š”

Is it evil of me or be a terrible fan cause now I just want to see the Mariners blow yet another playoff opportunity? Cause it feels kind of expected to happen

Luke Arkins is also posting about these issues with Castillo too
Shaun with a U (@shaun-with-a-u.bsky.social) reply parent
the guys from the Marine Layer podcast said something like the hard hit rate vs Castillo is very concerning & not gotten better & that his velocities dropped a little this season.
Shaun with a U (@shaun-with-a-u.bsky.social)
If Castillo continues to give up big innings to the opponents, heās going to be traded for scraps in the offseason

Yankees fans will gripe anything so that doesnāt surprise me. Iām guessing cause that was Don Mattingly first & only playoff appearance in his career & then retired right when the Yankees went on their historic run. That Angels WS championship is one of those weird ones.

If he would have just walked closer to the mound & still jawing that the pitcher, totally acceptable. Even if he charged the mound & started a brawl, ok. I get it. But using the bat, even if he just threw it in the pitchers direction, not a good look IMO.
