#thinking about kyle seager grinding for years only for his brother to come full circle and clinch a playoff spot in seattle

lately i've been kicking around an 'ohtani to the mariners' agenda and. while i don't think it's realistic, one could look at the mariners' recent moves as ostensibly trying to move money around in order to land one huge enormous signing, however unlikely. but i think a big oversight is what was so eloquently put by @degrommunism - the mariners haven't treated their existing players very well, which really doesn't bode well for players who aren't yet signed. so if the mariners aren't keeping the players who are proven and loved, and they're not going to sign new talent, and they're backpedaling on the few strengths that have allowed them to find a modicum of success in the past few seasons, that really begs the question of what the hell they're actually trying to accomplish, and how long they think their fans will continue to watch this happen
