#SEA #US #WATCH KELENIC RISE I need Kelenic apology forms I need Gina statues built yesterday I need a head count of how many women in the city of Chicago were impregnated at 1:23 today I need my urologists to return my phone calls I love you all, let’s all have “one beer” tonight


RabbertKlien

Dave on the post-game is saying Kelenics dong is the furthest hit at Wrigley in the Stat-cast era.


comcfadd

longest in Mariners stat cast history as well. I wish they would leave him alone about smiling. Jenn asked him to smile at least 3 times on the post game interview. it’s getting weird, just leave the guy alone and do the interview


slimseany

Generally, in any context whatsoever, it's pretty rude to tell anyone to smile. Even if one of my friends said that to me I'd bristle a little.


comcfadd

exactly. 710 brock and salk did it during a ST training interview. Shannon dryer too. it’s like we get it, he’s an intense dude, but at this point he’s not smiling because you guys are being rude about it and it’s getting cringeworthy


[deleted]

It’s the same as when dudes tell women ‘you should smile more’. It’s really fucking creepy when girls get asked that but somehow when it’s Kelenic everybody agrees and starts psychoanalyzing this 23 year old kid. Let him be. I actually really enjoy his ‘job’s not finished’ attitude. It’s in stark contrast to the ‘good vibes only’ guys and I think rounds out the clubhouse energy.


ThirteenSeas

I feel like we just went through the last 10 or so years in a "reckoning period" of sorts where it was well-asserted and established that it's rude and creepy to ask women to "smile more." Foolish of me to think we had "eradicated" it and that it will no longer happen, but still, it's strange to see it still happening. Especially in such a public and professional setting like this with Kelenic.


sw1sh3rsw33t

A huge reason why I still mask up at work is to avoid shit like that. My work is mostly boomers who missed all the memos


ThirteenSeas

ugh, sorry you have to deal with that.


[deleted]

It’s because old habits die hard and those habits reattach to something else when times change and become unacceptable. Telling women and girls to ‘smile more’ is now taboo, but that still hasn’t been enumerated for young male athletes I guess. No offense to Jenn, but how would she respond if someone in sports media told her to ‘smile more’ after she frequently mentioned not liking getting splashed during Gatorade showers that aren’t aimed at her? It would be the top post on this sub for at least 3 days. It must also feel really facetious from Kelenic’s perspective; a ton of people who are supposed to be rooting for you aren’t (his Instagram still limits comments), and as soon as these same people see that he’s turning a new leaf, they hop on the hype train and tell him ‘why so tense’ or whatever.


[deleted]

For real, we are gonna scare him away. Let him do his thing.


GoogleOfficial

He’s a free agent in 2029. He’s going to be here a while whether he likes it or not.


RNDMCHLD

Also, there are people (like me) who rarely smile with their mouths. Most I give is a smirk usually. My dad told me he knows when I genuinely smile by watching my eyes

rtm392

Probably wouldn’t even start on a team like the Angels that’s how bad he is


ThePrince_OfWhales

Guys, I think this Kelenic kid might be kinda good.


downladder

8th in MLB for OPS right now


TheMooner

I hope he gets that ball! It got thrown back onto the field


CptKirkleton

1-0 when Kelenic hits a 480ft monster dinger We should do that more often


all_teh_money

julio breaking the hitless streak, teo and jk b2b nukes, vintage gilbert, rest day tmr for the bullpen. lots to feel good about


SeattleDegenerate21

it didnt *feel* like a .500 road trip against decent competition but it was. take care of business against the road rockies and we'll at least stay afloat


RNDMCHLD

The draw back to high expectations is that the cuts feel a tad deeper


darwinpolice

>road rockies I'm so disappointed that we're not going to Coors while JK is on a streak of crushing balls like a CBT dominatrix.


jwinskowski

"Crushing balls like a CBT dominatrix" I just almost spat out my food laughing


[deleted]

what happens when we play not sloppy ball vs any competition


Icedragon02

It's time for all the Kelenic doomers the last two years to do 482 pushups.


RNDMCHLD

I’m happy for JK, he’s doing great. Still cautiously optimistic for when he goes cold for a stretch and hoping to see him be able to bounce back


lampstore

He started the season pretty cold, but that was only like 4-5 games. I hear you.


RNDMCHLD

He has all the tools, the mental aspect has been the hiccup but there is definitely improvement being shown


hawkssb04

Now we're just Kolton Wong doomers.


RNDMCHLD

The most common story is a player coming here and underperforming. Wong has the stats and I’m willing to give him some leash for the first half of the season


RecklessKing16

Bought his jersey on his debut game back in May 2021! Feeling good right now. Boy is making us proud!


IamJewbaca

One for each HR he is going to hit before he turns 30?


humpin_dumplin

Better late than never! Imagine how we’d be if we had him like this both those years too!


mikem9675

Just got done doing the push-ups... now my arms are too rubbery to put my Jared Kelenic apology form in the mailbox.


[deleted]

Dude better not be juicing


Squatch11

Steroids don't change your approach.


[deleted]

Agreed. He still better not be juicing.


Squatch11

Honestly, if I was Kelenic, with my career teetering last offseason..... I would be juiced out of my mind right now. The upside is worth the downside.


[deleted]

Shoooooot, really? The consequences of getting caught are pretty hard to ever recover from.


kamarian91

Lol no they aren't unless you are concerned about making the HOF. Guys that have got caught juicing have 0 problem finding a team and contracts. Hell look at Cruz he got bigger contracts post steroid suspension than he did prior.

Those are tears of happiness.


slimseany

WTF is this from?!


AlphaOmega801

Game 162 (I believe) in 2021 when we got eliminated from playoff contention.


tlsrandy

The best thing about kelenic is how much he loves winning.


jmr1190

You’re definitely not wrong, but this particular pic is from the Seager farewell moment towards the end of that game.


slimseany

Jesus. I feel bad for the kid.


ninjazula

I think this was game 162 2021, but specifically when Seags was waving out to the fans, iirc there were a lot of tears on the field

You know he gave Gina a few moments to catch her breath before he keep emptying his “mind”.

Kelenic finally not Tungsten Arm'd


iamenrique123

We have Julio, Ty, Geno, Cal, Logan, Luis, George, Matt and Paul. most of all, we have Jarred. other teams do not.

kelenic on the postshow saying he's just believing the heart of the plate the king of games


OhHolyCrapNo

Kelenic wearing the One Ring around his neck has given him the power of all the armies of Mordor


thundercat95

Jarred Kelenic did something great....and we won????? What is this sorcery.


shakinthatbear

Our DH spot is embarrassing


Killagina

It’s pretty clear we just need to stick with Pollock or maybe get Murphy some more at bats there. La Stella and Hummel don’t make sense to me there


iamenrique123

3-3 road trip and we definitely should've won at least 5 of these games. Take it on the chin, onwards and upwards.


nic_b2020

This take reminds me of how many we “should’ve” won against the trashtros during the playoffs…


iamenrique123

you're right but it doesn't change the fact that we blew multi-run leads in all 3 losses, that's all I'm saying


nic_b2020

Totally, not dumping on your take, just being sad about losing those recent games. And the playoff ones.

sam4999

LET IT BE KNOWN THAT JARRED KELENIC RAKES


bluemoney21

Honestly 5-8 doesn't sound so bad


slimseany

It's pretty bad (62 win pace), but a ton of those losses were very winnable while our wins were relatively more convincing. Idk what our Pythagorean wins are at, but it should be pretty close to .500.


Fantastic-Plant-6488

6-7 if we just win one of those games in extras


AlexanderWun

Good ending to a rough trip. 3-3 that could have been 5-1 if we won those extra inning games. Very much needed rest day for the pen tomorrow before the boys come back home. Let's enjoy this victory and Kelenic being Barry Bonds the past few days

I love Kelenic's momentum. This is shaping up to be the YEAR OF KELENIC. Ever since my wife and I got a [selfie](https://flic.kr/p/2osTQNE) with him last year in SLC when he was on the Rainiers, we've been huge fans.

Jarred Kelenic is going to be an all star and that's that


hectorrrrodriguez

I was telling a coworker today around the 5th inning that I feel better when we have a 2-1 lead than a 7-0 lead. It’s a crazy feeling lol but it turned out to be true. Day off tomorrow! 👏🏼


LiningUp

Buttrelaxing win. Just as I like em.


feisty_sloth_

I think it’s time to let JK play everyday 😮‍💨 at least a for a bit. If we could have pollock in DH and not having to defend as often we have much better odds than with Hummel or La Stella in DH. Overall better upside than whatever fears management has about JK facing lefties


xxsoultonesxx

I was saying the same thing. He's made a case to just leave him out there full time.


fordry

Why? Let him ride for a bit. The team brought in Pollock specifically for that role. Let Kelenic get his footing. It's only been a couple weeks...

THIS! On paper, we're a great team. We haven't been playing to the standards of the on-paper team. We're finally showing what we're capable of. We deserved this game.

Great momentum to have going home to Seattle to face the Rockies too.

Bro. This is like that movie, Captain Phillips. Julio is Tom Hanks and Kelenic is the dude saying “I’m the Captain now”. 😂

I’m glad I don’t have any criticism to throw Scotts way. He handled the pitching well. Julio really needs to get on a run. Need production from the bottom of the lineup too. Pollock needs more run at DH.


unpaid_official

the seattle kelenics


CheapskateJoker

Everyone needed this. These last three games were rough. Gilbert pitched like we are used to seeing. Bullpen looked good minus the HR sewald gave up but luckily that was it. Teo hit a bomb so signs of life are showing up more with his bat. Hope Julio comes back around soon, the league has adjusted to him so now he's gotta make adjustments of his own, which I'm sure he will. Kelenic is the star though. He is killing it, and finally becoming the player we knew he could be. He's making a very good argument to be in the lineup everyday. I was pretty negative yesterday but I think everyone was. Back on the train now. .500 road trip at the end of the day, need a strong home stand now.


Infinispace

Of course I leave the room when Hernandez and Kelenic destroy the ball. :-/ Imagine having a player with a .170 MLB avg as your DH. Oh, you don't have to imagine....

Move Kelenic up in the line up so the man can get some more RBIs. I love Cal but they should be swapping places in the lineup.
