According to a current rumor, we just signed Guillermo Pimentel. According to FanGraphs (thank you to fellow LookoutLanding-er “Kermit” for reminding me I needed to re-bookmark that- I’m now addicted to it), he was with the Rangers – and they have another guy named Guillermo on their roster, too; what are the chances?*

Today is happy, happy Felix day. He’s going up against Tim Wakefield, who I also kinda dig – knuckleballers and sidearmers are my favorites! But obviously, I hope we blow Wakes away. Raise your glass to the impossible, Go Mariners!


*EDIT; per Jon at ProBallNW (formerly Bleedingblueandteal, see comments for this post), this is a totally different Guillermo Pimentel. What are the chances, I say, that two guys have that same particular first and last name and are playing baseball? I guess the Rangers still have both of their Guillermos. And now we have our very own.
