Uhh, Pelican Brewery has a restaurant in Pacific city that's family friendly and stocks some pretty good beers if that's your thing.

RIFT just went free to play, and it's easily the best of the WoW clones I've played.

Zips expects pretty much the exact same thing out of both Shoppach and Blanco over the rest of the year.

Jesus Montero's ceiling is really high.
Commented on Mariners DFA Kelly Shoppach, Sign Henry Blanco on Jun 15 2013, 4:24a
The difference in wins between Shoppach and Blanco between now and the end of the year is probably less than 1 as well.
Commented on Mariners DFA Kelly Shoppach, Sign Henry Blanco on Jun 14 2013, 7:19p
His numbers right now aren't really that different than his career numbers.

I was actually thinking last night that I couldn't remember the last time Kelly Shoppach didn't strike out or bunt when he was up at the plate.

Shoppach has struck out 36% of the time, hasn't walked, hasn't hit for power, and has posted a BABIP of .300, so it's not like he's been getting unlucky or anything.

I think Pujols has also had a bunch of elbow troubles, so moving him to a position with less throwing was probably a good idea.

Seager is hitting about as well as Adrian Beltre, who's currently the best hitter on the Rangers.

I wish David Aardsma never exploded. He was nifty, and even though he gave up crazy amounts of long fly balls, never felt as useless as League or Wilhelmson does now.

He hasn't really looked good all year.

He was throwing bendy 12-6 pitches to Jesus Montero last year too, and was way, way better.

The two jerseys I own are a Dustin Ackley and a Jose Lopez. Second baseman without dance moves are ok with me.

Since he is a Mariner's second baseman, I am hugely high on Nick Franklin!

He's still probably not "Manny Rameriez with no legs" bad at defense, even if he did fall off a cliff.

I'm content with Ackley being a plus defensive second basemen when everyone was saying he'd be the Raul Ibanez of second base.
Commented on 6/7 Off Topic FanPost of Doom on Jun 12 2013, 8:33p
He was one, but then he started feeling elbow pain, diagnosed with inflamation, was held out most of last year, and hasn't been very good since coming back.
Commented on Mike Zunino and The Moment on Jun 12 2013, 8:28p
That would be a -5 WAR/150 pace on defense.
