I’m going to transition to hate-following this team and/or becoming a more casual Mariners fan.
I don’t believe this franchise will prosper (again) with Pohlad ownership.

I really don’t believe in lottery conspiracies but if someday it came out that the Zion, Kyrie and this lottery were makeup favors for teams for losing players, I wouldn’t push back too much.

NFL: This QB has hands like those of a baby. He is blind in one eye, and has little short term memory. Athleticism is absent, and his throwing motion is akin to a broken catapult. Top 15 pick.
NFL: His specific movement ability after contact reminds me of a cross between Boots McGee (you’ve never heard of him) and a natural gas powered city bus. Could be an excellent TE2 for a play action-centric team. Second round.
The difference in draft analysis between the sports is always so funny to me
NBA: "This guy, the 4th pick in the draft, cannot shoot a basketball, he could be a perennial All-Star one day"
MLB: "This guy, the 4th pick in the draft, he has incredible power, great speed, maybe average starter"
