Hopefully we can pull a surprise season
 
Last spring training this father and son sat behing my dad and I. This kid was very knowledgeable but was very "rah rah" and addressed every player as they came up to bat, "come on Jack" or "come on Guti" (2010). As my dad and I watched what was our first spring training game that year, it became apparent this team had ZERO offense which was even more glaring as they were facing the eventual AL Champs, Texas. Long story short, I proclaimed loudly enough for that kid to hear, "This team is gonna suck!" I hope it resonated with that kid because I said the same thing this year watching them in spring training. This team is really going to suck, and as much as I hate to say it I doubt if Ichiro finishes the season with us but if they grasp at straws with him then Figgins for sure.

I've said it every season for at least 6 seasons now, a poor ownership and front office (owner doesn't even live in the U.S.) has doomed us.

Let's go M's,

FUN!? It's only fun if we're winning, haha.

Come to me in July and tell me if it's fun when we're forced to trade Felix

Alright!

Bases loaded with two outs last year would be almost a gauranteed out. This year we got that offense baby. RBI for Cust.
