Cal has a bat for Players’ Weekend that’s in Sonics colors and just says “bring them back” and i swear to god if the front office ever lets him be anything other than a Mariner i will never ever forgive them

like i feel like he has really embraced Seattle in a way that we don’t see very often and i cannot stand the thought of him going to any other team tbh

#the mariners doc touches on this idea a lot #this can be a hard team to play for and a hard place to live #because it’s so relatively remote (and also the team is cursed by god)#so when you get players who really truly buy into not just the team but the community #who really treat this city like a home #like cal and julio and mitch (and ichiro and dan and edgar and griffey)#idk there’s something that makes me pretty emotional about it #i’ve lived in the area basically my whole life and i was literally JUST bitching about the weather 20 seconds ago BUT it is home #and i do love it #and when the players seem to love it too i feel some kinda way about it #anyway i’m crying about baseball at 9am! don’t mind me #talkin baseball
