It's not official it's a white flag. They picked up a starter from the Pirates who's been pretty damn good lately.

A number of Mariners players anonymously blasted general manager Jerry Dipoto to Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times, excoriating the executive for seemingly deciding to sell when the team is one game back from a playoff spot and sending away a clubhouse leader with little communication.

Here's how mad Mariners players are at Jerry Dipoto
Players reportedly described a clubhouse with palpable anger and smashed equipment after the trade. "Betrayed" was reportedly the word of the day.

Here's a sampling of the quotes:

“Are you (expletive) kidding me?” said the same player. “It never changes. They don’t care about winning. How do you trade him and say you care about winning? And you trade him to Houston? It never changes.”

“He hasn’t come down here,” a player said of Dipoto. “He sits up in his suite, playing fantasy baseball and rips apart our team without telling us anything.”

Another player via text said that “no one has heard a thing,” and later texted: “I’ve seen a lot of teammates walk out that door. But this one hurts the most and is the most (expletive) up. The team deserves an explanation.”

The only player named in the article was starting pitcher Marco Gonzalez, who was reportedly distraught to the point of tears upon learning about the trade.

[Fields will] be the starting QB on an NFL roster at the start of next season. Book It!

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

The Sox kinda botched this deadline.

Angels pulled Taylor Ward, Jordyn Adams, and Livan Soto so might have something cooking.

What could a rebuilding team give up to take a flier on Adell turning it around?

Angels should sit the fuck down and evaluate at the end of the season.
