3 games in. Here's what we learned...

I will step in here and say 3 games into the season is a bit too early to proclaim TSIO.

Then again i'm a Moog. Fuck. TSIO.
 
Cruz will hit but it's clear they overpaid for him.
I think the mariners will be really good this year, if we're 2 months in and they're sitting under 500 you guys can laugh at me, but I will moog it up for now
 
Baseball season needs to be cut down to 16 games, one game a week. Then the M's could start F-bomb every game and win multiple championships.
 
No reason to have any kind of panic until at least 2-3x through the rotation.

It is early, but the team has some issues. The rotation and bullpen will likely be a little worse than last year. Logan Morrison is a horrible everyday 1B. Cano losing his power is worrisome too. They need .300 with 20+ HR's from him or they won't score enough.
 
Already humming along like a well oiled machine

morrison as the everyday 1b is not ideal and the bullpen is probably worse, but you are way jumping the gun on cano. all they need is production, not a ton of power and he's been stinging the ball right at people
 
morrison is who he is. he's roughly an average hitter, with average 1B defense, who has trouble with durability. the mariners could obviously do better but they could also do worse

This, he's not a huge problem at the moment. The biggest issue in their lineup are the corner outfield spots.
