We are currently seeing that the M's were not as close to contending as we may have thought. This reaffirms to Danny that they made the right decision in not being aggressive this off season. However, this has to be the last time it feels like this. How do the Mariners earn your patience moving forward?

M's fans are frustrated and understandably so but Danny doesn't want them to do things just to make the team more appealing to fans right now. They need to follow their plan for the rebuild.

It's Groundhog Day with the M's. Paul wishes they would have "bought some new clothes" or dressed things up a bit with free agents so that it looks nicer even if you're not quite ready to contend yet. Danny isn't interested in just making it "look nicer". He wants to do what is best for the future but they both agree that this is embarrassing.
