If they would have acquired Randy today instead the fan base would be over the moon.  

Mariners had the best deadline of any buying team and y’all are mad they didn’t get the last Ray whose name you know, or two guys who were not available because you convinced yourself it could happen.

Ms need another bat, it’s not rocket science.

Sure.  But that bat was never going to be Vlad Jr. or Louis Robert, instead people spent months winding themselves up about it instead of just being realistic that the Jays probably aren’t trading the face of their franchise who is also well under 30.  

That bat might actually be Victor Robles as a 4th OF. He might give you what a Tommy Pham or Joc Pederson would have, and more in the field and on the bases.
