I don’t know how many people watched the Mariners game tonight, a glorious Seattle evening at the end of a holiday weekend. As the weather outside becomes more inviting, gluing yourself to a screen for hours a day just to watch them lose becomes less and less so. Even for me, someone with an eye on the 2020 draft and a strong belief in the promise of the farm system, watching loss after loss after loss can be exhausting, exasperating, and wholly unpleasant. The thing is, I don’t want the Mariners to win games, because I want them to have a top-10 draft pick (they’re currently positioned for 8th overall).
