He's got to be careful with that honorary trident. Somebody could get speared with that thing!

Hopefully the other team.

Big Dumper #46!

I'm not sure if the M's tendancy to underperform against bad teams(i.e. Orioles) and overperform against good teams(i.e. Mets) is a good thing or bad thing, I guess since they'll be playing good teams in the playoffs(Hopefully if they get there) I'll take what I can get. They are a team that could be scary in the playoffs with their deep pitching rotation.

You probably don't watch the Mets on a daily basis but ...

They are NOT a good team.

Yes, I watched him club da Mets to det last night. Words from the 1985 song by Dire Straits floated in my head: "The man's too big; The man's too strong."

Guy's gotta lay down the cheat codes. A Platinum Glove catcher leading the league in home runs?? Come on!!

...and the Mariners might still not make the playoffs.

I was shocked to learn that Cal's nickname (which I figured had something to do with his "dumping" dingers in the seats or whatever) is actually about his ass. (Courtesy of Winker the Stinker, perhaps unsurprisingly.)

I dunno, he's got a decent curve and some junk in da trunk, but he's no Anthony Recker, I'm just saying. Yeah, yeah, "the bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin'", to quote Spinal Tap…but still.

I saw Mike Piazza, the king of butt-torque. When he hit a bomb, I would literally say "he got all his ass into that one!" I just don't see that with Cal, Winker's propensity for juvenile nicks aside.

Cal is in fact a fine player. Perhaps one day he'll get a nickname worthy of his talents.

I think I speak for all of us when I say "No comment".

Well at least Anthony Recker's prodigious tush is still spoken fondly about all up and down Long Island!

Whenever I see his face I can't help but think how much he looks like a child. And yet he's somehow one of the greatest home run hitters in the game today? Sure, the older we get the more most younger people look like kids, but I think he looks a lot more like a kid than most. If I was better at photoshop I'd stick his head here on a kid's body just for effect.
